"RELIGIOUS PHILOSOPHY"

The Wise Man

The Wise Man is not sure of anything in life because he Follows the Stream of Life. He is Free, so he can easily accept whatever truth the facts reveal to him. The Sage is sure of one thing, that beyond all phenomena there is a Unique Truth.

.

The Sage Who Experienced the Truth has nothing more to learn. And behind all that he attentively observes, his own Truth is Revealed.

.

What seems good to a Wise man may seem worthless, and meaningless, to a foolish man... who's to judge?

.

People who, within the worldly dream, dream, can live what they want, believe what they want. But for the Awakened Sage, a dream is a dream, regardless of its content.

.

The Enlightened Man, precisely because he regards the world of illusion as worthless, cannot function in the world, and thus becomes incompetent, useless, from the point of view of the ordinary man. The question is, after all, "what is the good"? To be awake and useless, or to adopt the illusion and be capable and useful within the world of illusion?

.

You will have reached Wisdom only then, when you will see all things around you as precious gems. The depth of the horizon, the bird that flies and flies away, a flower with the dew of life or the withered branches that show that they lived, the grass on earth that blooms and withers without reason, a stone, even the soil in your hand ... Everything is sacred, precious in its existence, and eternal in its true essence in the Memory of God ... Only fools think about the "usefulness" of things.

.

The Wise Man sees both the Oneness of Essence and the multiplicity of phenomena, and humbly accepts it all... because "it is so."
