The ABC’s of LIFE in BRIEF…

A poem from Almustafa: Clouds resist…

Heavens dwell in the farthest skies
Seeking refuge in the peaceful space
Humans deluded accept all emerging lies
Sprouting like magic mushrooms in the nearest cloud

Elevation of the spirit is life’s purpose is it not?
Any tiny light of truth is worth pursuing
For love frees gradually itself from the mud
But clouds resist and persist…and

…Humans with their fists continue fighting…

The see shores and mountain peaks have tried…
Vainly to elevate the vision of men
But men have used them just to release their burdens
And always have left with empty hands.

This is the basic source of misery in men,
They are too attached to deal with their burdens as their enemies
Missing the hidden stretching loving hand in them
And so they leave each time empty handed…

Here is a dialogue between me and the highest in me…
Another full hand stretching to fill an empty hand…

Ben: I have read all the holy books but nothing seems to heal my daily suffering through my various desires and relationships.

Almustafa: listen dearest Ben, everything is hidden within what you have read, but one is invited to enlighten to the truth and not merely reading a ready made recipe to abuse at will.

Ben: Why does it have to be so subtle?

Almustafa: Since in these days enlightenment is hardly attainable, a sage is bound to make it more accessible through simple words to break the barrier of literature. Here are some clarifications but never forget this TRUTH: Words can only be HALF TRUTHS! For one can not LIVE or EXPERIENCE their meaning through reading.

First Ben, you have to realize that life is not LOVE&JOY in the worldly sense as most are praising; it is rather an ocean of suffering! In other words: “LIFE is a JOY for HE WHO DELIGHTS THE hidden LOVE within each SUFFERING”. The wings of this love are wounding but liberating, the ones who run from them are running from the true meaning of life and thus from their true selves. The mercy of Love’s threshing floor is hard to enjoy, for its TASKS are to SIFT you while freeing you from your HUSKS. Human life is the LOWEST consciousness a spirit can incarnate. With the OPTION of “BEING” able to liberate itself through the daily ONGOING purification and rectification of Mind and Heart relationship. Thus, the ONLY thing humans can be “PROUD OF” is this OPTION of LIBERATION from the earthly TRINITY: “Rebirth-Old-age-Death”. Any thing out of this divine option is merely a waste of a precious time. I often ask people about their true goals in life and most answers are about having a nice family in a happy home and see the children of their children grow also happily and if possible FREE of sickness and poverty. All those who AGREE on such an ignorant way of living are in truth undeserving of a HUMAN LIFE, for this is naught but the ANIMALISTIC way of living! Indeed, all animals do the same thing and much better instinctively within the scope of their lives. Have you ever seen an UNHAPPY animal? In truth, only those living with humans know such a state, for we project our IGNORANCE on them in the name of EMPATHY or the LUCK of it! A free animal does know how to survive in all circumstances. Humans KILL their instincts. Most of humans are naught but CONCIOUS ANIMALS, thus consciousness is the only thing that separates us from animals. Consciousness is the ULTIMATE way to liberation.

Ben: Wao, that is a tough piece of truth to digest. But tell me, how to raise our consciousness effectively?

Almustafa: Ok, here are Life’s mechanisms. You are fervently INVITED to accept totally this divine FACT: your WHOLE SITUATION as “Ben” today is naught but the FRUIT STATUS of your Spirit’s history throughout its existence. Most, when the harvest comes as SICKNESS for example, they use all their powers at hand to get rid of it as if it was a malicious alien. One would never see a farmer WASTE his harvest, isn’t it so? And most claim to be Christians, Hindus etc. Now how can that be? Jesus said: as you sow you shall reap, which is equivalent to the law of Karma for the Hindus. Now who’s fooling whom? Life, through all its HARDSHIPS, is merely offering precious occasions of PURIFICATION. One is invited to do his best to SUFFER most of what he/she can ENDURE, that is all. I tell you once again dearest friend, always REMEMBER, liberation rides on SUFFERING and NOT on pleasures through desires!

Ben: You mean to say all hardships through the various relationships also?

Almustafa: definitely my friend and I would add: especially those, for it is easier than enduring sickness at all times.

Life, through the LAW of the universe, will keep on hold everything you refuse to endure for later times; you can’t get away with anything! You’ve got to pay your bill.

Heed this deep in your heart my friend:

“Life JUDGES Ben, ONLY through Ben’s SEEDS! The Law of GOD being completely BENEVOLENT, allows you the FREE WILL to RETURN to it or ignore it, until your time is UP!”

Now why most can’t accept such a CLEAR FACT? It is simply because, Ben can only have ACCESS to a one sided POINT of VIEW through what is happening and thus judges according to this partial truth. The LAW has a global PLANETARY VIEW of the history of all sides involved and thus can’t commit errors!

Ben: Well, what is DEPRIVING me from understanding such a great principle?

Almustafa: Attachments my friend, and all are rooted in the magic of DESIRE! No matter how much you read, the LAW will look into your heart and decide to deprive you or not from its principle. Had it not been so, every IGNORANT will come to OBTAIN the LAW. Such thing is not permitted as long as DESIRE is still ALIVE and kicking in your heart. You can FOOL your-SELF a million times but not the LAW! This is the toughest thing for a human to accept, because it “RIPS-HIM-OFF” of what SEEMINGLY makes one’s life ENJOYABLE and WORTH living from one’s POINT of view!

Well again, to make it clearer, let me picture it for you in a metaphoric way. Earth is one “BOAT” on which the inhabitants enjoy sailing according to the sets of rules and desires on board. A Heavenly planet is JUST another “BOAT” with different sets of rules and desires. One is BOUND to choose where to be, one can’t have a foot on each boat, the legs will soon reach their maximum STRETCH! The problem is rooted in the ATTACHMENT of NOT LET GO of what is REAL in the worldly sense depicted in one’s POINT of view. The HARSH Law of the universe can’t show you what has in STORE for you as Heavenly DESIRES before you GIVE UP the earthly ones. That is how humans deal before buying anything, this is a God’s DEAL I call it today the “Swastika principle”, where is your FAITH you are BRAGGING ABOUT by being a Christian, a Hindu etc? I know this DEAL is tough, but there is no other choice my friend. However, I can only offer you this much of TRUTH, only HALF of it, you ought to complete the OTHER HALF on your OWN and this is the OTHER HIDDEN PRINCIPAL called the “Ying & Yang principle”! In any case, just start applying the principles at your speed and at your ease, for nowadays the Law have decided to BESTOW its most DARING BLESSINGS ever known to human history.

Yes, the LAW is RECTIFYING the practitioner through the cultivation method of Body/Mind called Falun GONG.

Humans have tried in VAIN to re-INVENT the WHEEL, for how could they re-MEMBER who they were and where-from ONCE they came? Finally the LAW (FA) through its WHEEL (LUN), will “RE-IN-VENT” the practitioners day and night (ever rotating) to help them RETURN to the wonderful world once they came from. The Falun will rotate clockwise to draw energy from the universe to cultivate the practitioner and counter-clockwise to rectify the practitioner’s environment, this is the highest meaning of catching two birds with one shot, in fact you could catch many birds! So dearest Ben, go on www.falundafa.org or join a group of Falun Gong BENEVOLENT practitioners and learn benevolently how to assimilate your-SELF to the heavenly trinity characterizing the universe: Zhen-Shan-Ren or Truthfulness-benevolence-Forbearance.

Remember, you need to collect a lot of VIRTUE so that the Falun will transform it to the High energy matter called GONG and VIRTUE is hiding in every BIT of suffering and every “problematic” situation we encounter. So keep being Clearheaded about this Zhen-Shan-Ren or Z.S.R principle to CONQUER and RELINQUISH the earthly Very-Important-Person or V.I.P principle!

Now please heed this: You are fervently invited to accomplish all your worldly responsibilities (business, education etc.) to your best ability disregarding their rewards. One can’t slack up using the excuse of cultivating himself! One is invited to be THE model of a human being according to the standards of such a high-level-practice as Falun Gong.

GOoD luck my friend… With my deepest gratitude to Master Li Hongzhi who imparted this great cultivation method as a supreme ADDED VALUE to the world.

Here is a poem by Master Li.

Born into a sphere of suffering
Man struggles just to survive
One day, behold, the Great Law gained
Cease not your steps on the path of return...

May the FA show you the way to your path of return…

Universal conscious love, Almustafa
