Relaxation

2 the room of the body (to be set up)

3 the room of the SPIRIT (set up and unchangeable)

Our actions correspond to each room.

We can say that the soul is found halfway between the spirit and the body, it is like a mediator between the spiritual and the material. It is the “field of battle” between good and evil. I do not want to touch on all the functions of the soul, but only on some which, in my opinion, can help us in our awareness of the positives and negatives that we find in ourselves.

all this time is our past, our history, our life - inside us there are the marks, the wounds and the scars, the successes and the joys of our history - we can say a “book” where there is written everything - in detail.

Do we want to know our history?

To put it in order?

Make peace with ourselves?

Now!

Right now, is the right moment!

1st The memory

As

I have written before, inside us, in our memory, we find all of our past. Let us try to imagine that we find ourselves in an archive full of shelving, full of dusty documents. This image has a certain effect on us, but also makes us curious. In the beginning, perhaps we do not have the faintest idea of what we must do, what and where to look.

Too many things!

Disorganised!

Covered in dust!

We certainly know a term: dust

. Here is what we must do: dust off our memory, that is: bring back light and significance to those histories that we have lived and that have made us what we are. To do this, we start from now and little by little we turn back.

There you are!

The second habit to develop!

EVERY DAY MAKE “AN EXAMINATION OF YOUR CONSCIENCE” OR “SELF-ANALYSE THE DAY”!

The development of this habit is fundamental to keeping our memory in order, without suspended or unresolved things. From today on, we must do it regularly, right during the evening relaxation, before going to sleep

How do you do it?

In a simple way!

During our relaxation remember everything we have experienced during the day. Put everything in order, the positive and the negative things. We are thankful for the positive things, for the negative things we ask for forgiveness, with the prospect of improving ourselves by doing a program of work. For example: this week we commit ourselves to working on our patience - in our tone of voice, or in listening - and so on. This regards the present. There still remains our past that is disordered and needs to be sorted out. We see that the things in our work plan become clear:

let’s keep the present in order,

let’s dust off the past.

I know a proverb:

TIME HEALS THE WOUNDS!

On the one hand yes: you need time, like everyone on earth, but on the other hand: you do not need to believe that time heals the wounds without your cooperation. Every wound must be worked out in a planned and systematic way. We must know what to do.

First step to heal the past!

My past is influenced by my present. The positive and negative things. With the positive things, we do not have problems, in fact they give us pleasure. The things that annoy us most are the negative things and, among the negative things, those that we have ignored, without sorting them out. It is not enough to forget the negative things which have made us suffer, if they are not sorted out, they make us still suffer today and, if we leave them like that, even tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. How do we know this? In stressful situations and during disputes, all our experience returns and takes away our strength.

What does this mean?

That inside of us are like hidden, suffocating illnesses, “under control” - but active. A bit of “fire” is enough and it returns to make us feel bad. To keep them under control, we need energy, so much energy - unsettled things of the past are like vampires that suck out energy. Try to imagine - if there are so many, they “eat” all the energy we have to use to live. We lack energy and we are weak, psychologically and physically. I think we have understood why we must make this effort, to dust off and put our past in order.

To better understand what and why, I will tell you of an example. Sincerely, I do not remember where I read it, but that does not matter. Let’s try to read it looking at ourselves.

Pay attention!

There was a kingdom, very beautiful, but also very particular because full of bandits. They were everywhere. They gave a lot of trouble and created so much unease to the people. They robbed and behaved very badly! The people were complaining. So many times, the king tried to defeat them. But all his attempts were useless.

The thing became unsupportable. The king, with his advisers, was looking for a solution to sort out, once for all, the problem of the bandits. After a long meeting, they decided to request help from cavaliers specialised in these cases

A miracle!

Already after a week of the presence of the cavaliers, the bandits’ activities diminished so much. After a month, the people almost forgot their nasty tenants. Everybody was content, or rather, most content.

They did not know how to thank the heroes.

However! Pay attention!

The brigands by nature are very crafty and also in this case showed the maximum cunning. To not be completely beaten, they hid, saying: “we are hiding and we are pretending that we are no longer here”. When the cavaliers went away, they started up their activities again!

The whole kingdom was convinced that the bandits were no longer there and asked the king to disband the cavaliers, thanking them cordially.
