ROMANIAN Now I was again in front of a threshold. There was no question whether I wanted to pass it or not. For that, I was there. I was curious, and I wanted to find out what was behind that door. A massive metal door embedded in concrete walls. Would I find there the library I have imagined? That old library, full of papyri, books old and new, full of dust and lit only by […]
ROMANIAN The sweet aroma of the watermelon that I just finished eating still fills my mouth. Summer and watermelon with its unmistakable scent. The savour and coolness that spreads through my body when the lumps of watermelon are melting in my mouth … induce me an ecstatic joy. (Read more)
ROMANIAN It is evening, and a cool breeze blows, which causes me goosebumps. I sit on the steps in front of my house, looking to the sky, which slowly covers with clouds. A storm is forecasted. It’s so quiet tonight, actually every night. Every now and then a car passes on the street. I live in town. And yet it is so peaceful. In this quietness, I meditate on the meaning of life, its joys […]
ROMANA I closed my eyes, brought my hands together in front of my chest and started: “Our Father … give us, … forgive us, … lead us …, deliver us …”. I continued like this asking for things to happen, with the hope that someone outside of me will accomplish these demands, one way or the another. Suddenly, the words I was continually repeating in my mind began to get shape and colour, and at […]
ROMANIAN VERSION “Know thyself, and you will know the whole universe!” inscription on the frontispiece of the temple of Delphi I am pretty sure I have told you already, I exercise meditating every day or, better saying, every night. I don’t have a rule for meditating. Usually, I choose how I meditate depending on the feelings of the moment. Sometimes it goes traditionally, by concentrating the attention on breathing and trying to consider the thoughts […]
ROMANIAN VERSION Even now I remember my childhood days when by the end of May the elderflower was blooming. I could hardly wait to escape from home and to reach the railway at the edge of my village and pick up the craved blooming flowers. I smelled love in every each umbel while I’ve plucked it with deference. The delicate fragrance tickled my nostrils and, in my mouth, I already felt the aroma and prickles […]
ROMANIAN VERSION A human mind is a wonderful tool, it is the crowning of millions and millions of years of evolution. But could it have been so many years of evolution that turned it into a shrew? Why a Shrew? Because it tends to turn its owner into a slave. It catches him into a net, and it does not let him go very easily. It is a very perverse part of us, it has […]
The universe is not a noun! It is a verb! The universe is not an object that you can clearly define, it is a process, permanent moving, transforming itself from a moment to another. And here I am not referring only to the macroscopic universe, but also to the microscopic one, which forms the human being. So everything from the galactic scale to the quantum scale is in motion, in a continuous process of transformation. […]
For the one who sees the truth is no way to return. You will be in a permanent search until you reach it. But the way of truth is not an easy way, it involves a titanic work for spirit and intellect. But as I said, once you take a look beyond the curtain of illusion, you can not lie to you anymore that the illusion is a reality. Although you have not yet come […]
Do you know this image captured by the Cassini spacecraft in April 2017? It was made near planet Saturn. Do you see that tiny point under the rings of Saturn? Yeah, that bright spot, that speck of dust is Earth. Earth with all that is on it: mountains, plains, oceans, countries, cities, people with their thoughts and dreams and sufferance … all this squeezed on the surface of this speck. As we can see, at […]
