  In all of us lives and vibrates a being all love, light and
  virtue, a being that when set free, illuminates everything
  that sorrounds him: It's our spirit, that wonderful pure
  thought that emanated from God.

  Oh, yes, our spirit is the most beautiful of all of God's
  creations and our essence; oh, if only we guide our steps in
  life in accordance with that which is our true self, surely
  this and all the worlds would be a paradise, that paradise
  lost since times remote due to our coldness and detachment
  from our Heavenly Father!

  We, men or women, are not just material beings having a
  spiritual experience, but rather, spiritual beings having a
  human experience in our way to perfection.

  We are more than flesh, as spirits we are the reason why the
  Universe exists.

  The human nature was given to us as an act of supreme divine
  love, not as trap or as a stumbling-block but rather as a
  support, as a framework of a life rich in lessons and
  experiences, sometimes sweet and sometimes bitter, but
  lessons at the end.

  In this month's issue we will make a quick overview of both
  our human nature and of that paradise that we lost.

  - Of Human Nature

  There is a well-know proverb that says: "To err is human, to
  forgive divine"... Although was an author, Alexander Pope,
  who wrote it in "An Essay on Criticism" (England, 1711), many
  people, ignoring this fact, actually believe that it belongs
  to the ancient wisdom of the elders, and even a few think
  that it comes... from the Bible!

  Surely it is easy to agree with the second part of the
  saying, since forgiveness, as well as all virtues, is a
  divine attribute.

  But if we are to accept as a definite and absolute truth that
  to err is something inexorably inherent to human nature, then
  we can easily fall in fatalism.

  And if we get to believe that everything in the Universe is
  already predetermined by some Master Puppeteer, then we could
  end believing that there is not such thing as free will...

  But I hope that you agree with me that our free will is well
  and dandy...

            "Do not be fatalists, assuring yourself
            in the belief that your destiny is what
            God placed directly along your pathway;
            and that if you suffer it is because it
            was written, and if you rejoice it was
            also because it was written."

            "Within the spirit of man exists a
            Divine light that is his conscience,
            which illuminates his intelligence and
            inspires him toward a fulfillment of his
            duties."

            "For if an irresistible force obligated
            him only to follow a straight course,
            his compliance would not have any merit;
            and he would feel humiliated on
            realizing himself incapable of acting on
            his own free will, and that in spite of
            that, he would still be subject to a
            Law; but under those conditions in which
            your existence would evolve, who would
            be able to guide your thoughts toward
            righteousness? Only the Divine light of
            the conscience, which inspires man to
            comply with the Law, a light which
            dwells within the spirit and, through
            it, manifests itself to the matter."

  We must take in account that we, as humans, have not only the
  material nature - the matter that encompasses our physical
  body with its instincts as well as our superior senses- but
  also we have the spiritual and the divine natures; matter,
  spirit and conscience are what forms the human being.

  In view of this, then we understand that for every decision
  we face in our life, we have the freedom of choice to take it
  as we like.

  Of course, at this moment in humankind's history, the bad
  decisions outweigh the good ones; this is the reason why, for
  many, seems that is unavoidable that we human make
  mistakes... but, all the time?

  Surely not. Though far from perfection, from time to time,
  once in a blue moon, we get to make the right choices.

  After all, righteousness is too, part of human nature.

  So, what's the true dimension of what we can call "human
  nature"?

            "I created man with such perfection,
            that by contemplating himself he can see
            a reflection of who his Father is."

            "The fact that I had sought the way of
            communicating with men in three eras, is
            because I knew that at the end of the
            times, you would elevate yourself above
            the passions, the carnality, and the
            human miseries, living a noble life,
            full of high inspirations, filled with
            revealing deeds of your spiritual
            maturity."

  As spiritual children of God that we all are, it is just a
  matter of time that we conquer our spiritual maturity, as He
  explains in the above paragraphs.

  Then we will properly state that: "To be righteous is to be
  human."

  - The Paradise Recovered

  Hunger, unjustice, poverty, sickness, war, dispair, fear,
  disasters... it sounds as a sinister catalogue of bad things
  that an screenwriter would use to make the script for a
  horror movie... but, alas! It gets worse than that: It is
  actually the description of the real world we live in
  nowadays.

  Just open any newspaper, and you will see that there is not a
  single day that something awful or terrible happens in our
  world. And this gloomy shade of suffering covers mankind all
  over.

  It has been for so long that humans follow that sorry routine
  of hopelessness, that at this time most people see as a
  natural thing, to live in a world that ressembles more a
  valley of tears than a paradise.

            "Have you not said that the world in
            which you live is a valley of tears;
            that is, a valley of restitution?"

            "And who made it a valley of tears, God
            or man? I created it in the image of a
            celestial paradise, endowing it with
            wonders and pleasures, even thinking of
            the smallest and most insignificant
            things in order to assure your
            happiness."

            "Nevertheless, in a world created in
            such a manner, for its well-being and
            progress, for the enjoyment and
            spiritual elevation of mankind, men
            still suffer, weep, become desperate,
            and become strayed."


  Paradise... where did it go?

  Oh, how we long for that paradise. Deep deep inside, even the
  most callous and numb of soul still longs for that garden of
  eden that this world once was.

            "Paradise is not on the Earth, nor did
            it disappear with the sin of man. The
            paradise of the Father is eternal and
            the new generations will reach it."

            "When My kingdom penetrates into all the
            hearts and its divine influence invades
            the roads and all the pathways of men,
            this Humanity will again feel the bliss,
            the peace that the first inhabitants on
            this Earth experienced within
            themselves, and the men of those times
            will say: The paradise has returned! The
            paradise draws near to us again!"

            "That paradise is nothing else but the
            kingdom of kingdoms, the paradise that
            your first Fathers inhabited was not on
            the outside, it was within themselves."

  Then, we could clearly see that paradise is not a physical
  place, it is more like a state of mind, a spiritual
  environment.

            "Where could be found the pleasant
            garden, that Eden which was the paradise
            of delights, of well-being, of
            happiness, and of innocence? It had
            risen to the Father and only an atom of
            peace remained, a spark of light and a
            conscience to illuminate the pathway of
            man along his long journey."


            "That is why men search in vain for that
            garden; men have in vain crossed
            different places in search of that
            paradise and they have not found it,
            because the paradise has never been on
            this Earth, it has been within the
            spirit, in the heart of men."

            "But today, I say to you: The paradise
            that your first fathers possessed by
            virtue of their innocence, you shall
            recover by virtue of the merits and the
            conscience."

  Can we then recover the paradise lost? Yes, indeed. As our
  Father teaches us, that paradise is within our spirit. We
  must work hard in ourselves to recover that that was lost;
  after all, we were the ones that let it go. And even so, we
  will have our Lord's by our side to helps us recover that
  treasure.


            "I shall make this world rise from its
            leprosy; I shall also let life surge
            from death, I shall achieve fruits of
            reconciliation to sprout from hatred and
            reason shall surge from madness."

  Imagine a world where there is no more room for the horsemen
  of Apocalypse, where love, understanding, justice and good
  reigns. Wouldn't it be nice?

            "Paradise existed, exists, and will
            persist in eternity, and in all eras
            that paradise, which is the Kingdom of
            the Father, has drawn close to the
            hearts who search for it, to those
            spirits who elevate themselves in search
            of that kingdom; to the spirits who open
            their doors to receive the influence,
            the feeling and beatitude of that
            kingdom."

  -Last Word

  Our presence in the world shouldn't go unnoticed; we are
  endowed with spiritual gifts and virtues that are not only
  tools to evolve, but they are also the means for us to help
  in the magnificent task of the redemption of all spirits that
  constitutes God's Work.

  Prayer and charity which comes from love, giving light to
  confused beings, healing of the sick in the body, the mind
  and in the heart, inspiration and delivering comfort to the
  sad, are only a few of the resources we can use to aliviate
  the pain and suffering of our brothers.

  Let's use them every single day. And with it, we will advance
  in the road that leads us to recover that paradise we lost
  with our wrongdoings and lack of love.

  May the peace of our Father be with all of us.

  Your Brother in the Lord
