			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoPlainText">&#8220;Clearly, those who want to be successful in life must possess certain abilities and must work. But that is not enough. They must also be discerning, so they know what direction to take, who to associate with, and so on.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">And how do they acquire this discernment? By being selfless.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Yes, for selflessness allows humans to see clearly. Selfishness, greed and cupidity, on the other hand, blur their vision and cause them to lose their clearsightedness: they are so obsessed with seeking their own personal interest that they see what is happening around them as if through distorted lenses. And since they do not see reality as it is, what they think they are doing in their own interest they are actually doing to their detriment.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">For, contrary to what people may think, it is not necessarily selfishness that helps them settle their affairs, but selflessness.&#8221;<o:p></o:p></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoPlainText">&#8220;Every time we conquer the temptations our lower nature exposes us to, we acquire new strength. The difficulty, of course, is in maintaining this state of grace. As long as we are on earth, we cannot remain for very long on the heights we have managed to reach. We must struggle each time to re-conquer them. When we leave the earth for the world beyond, we will no longer need to struggle, for we will no longer be subject to temptations. But as long as we are here, we must strive, until the very last minute.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">To better understand this idea, you can compare it with eating and breathing – we ate yesterday, we must eat today as well, and tomorrow we will have to eat again. We have just taken a breath, and straight away we have to do the same again. One experience has allowed us to understand the meaning of life, but in order not to lose this meaning we must create another experience and then another. We may have overcome one temptation, but we will again be tempted, and again we will have to try to win the battle.&#8221;<o:p></o:p></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoPlainText">&#8220;To be happy, it is not enough to have a family, friends, a job and leisure. The proof is the number of people there are you might consider privileged but who are not happy! Why? Because they do not know how to respond to their soul’s needs. The soul needs to live in immense, infinite, limitless space. And yet, humans continually constrict their soul, fetter it and stifle it; they want it to make do with trifles – a little material success, a little pleasure, a little gossip… Then, the soul suffers and complains to them: ‘I want to be free, and you, with your ordinary, petty occupations and worries, keep me in fetters. I am a daughter of God, space is my element, I need to expand into the vastness of heaven.’<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">So, for at least a few minutes, experience allowing your soul to soar up and expand in space. Allow it to escape, to the point where it merges with the whole universe. And then you will know the meaning of happiness.&#8221;<o:p></o:p></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoPlainText">&#8220;In order to do what is right each day, it is important to keep a check on how much value you give to feeling and how much to thought. Observe yourself: see how often your feelings, passions and instincts are in charge, and your thinking has retreated and just allows what is happening; or else, it intervenes, but only in order to allow your passions to fulfil their aims. Well, that is called living in anarchy. When thinking does not fulfil its role, that is, when it is not applying itself to controlling feelings and desires, there is anarchy.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Have you ever wondered why Cosmic Intelligence has placed the head at the top of the body and the heart a little lower down? It is the same with a ship: the captain is up above, and the engines are below. The engines make the ship move forward, but the captain decides on the direction. We also have an engine, our heart, which drives our ship. But where will the heart go if it is not directed by the head, by the captain, who is up above, watching and giving orders so that the ship arrives safely?&#8221;<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoPlainText">&#8220;You are used to taking life as it comes, never suspecting that events are a substance you need to prepare, just as you prepare food by cooking it and adding certain ingredients to it – oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, and so on. And, in the same way, you do not eat fish as they are, straight from the sea, or vegetables as they are, straight from the earth.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">So cooking is the art of making all kinds of produce edible, delicious even, which would otherwise be indigestible or bland if you did not take care to clean them, cook them and season them.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">And it is the same with happiness. Happiness is the result of a whole process of inner cooking. Life’s good moments do not present themselves spontaneously, and you do not pick them the way you pick a ripe fruit from the tree on your way by. You must learn to work on each situation, particularly on the difficult, painful ones, adding elements from your spirit and your soul – elements of divine wisdom and love.&#8221;<o:p></o:p></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to Autumn, the air is getting crisp and cold; leaves crunch under my feet when I walk. I&#8217;ve been enjoying the look of the multi-hued leaves as they fall from the trees. I&#8217;m preparing to do my last clippings from my herb plants outside so that I can cover them with mulch to protect them during Mother Nature&#8217;s winter blanket so they may re awaken in the Spring.Are there things you could be doing to prepare yourself for the upcoming winter? Even if you live in a milder climate, there&#8217;s always things to be done not only physically but spiritually to prepare yourself for the season of &#8220;dormancy&#8221;. Self-reflection is perfect for winter months. Sit down, light a candle if you like and think about what you&#8217;d like to improve about yourself in the upcoming year. Write it in a journal or on a paper. If you write it on a loose paper you can burn it in a fire safe dish and release it to your creator like a prayer. If you want to hold onto it, look back in the months to come and see if you&#8217;ve achieved your goal!Many blessings!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoPlainText">&#8220;A few days ago you met a friend, who was very much alive. But since then, they have had an accident, and now you see them laid out on a bed, dead. It is still the same person, but something invisible has left them, something that allowed them to walk, speak, think and love. And you can place all the food and treasures in the world next to them and say, &#8216;It&#8217;s all yours, be happy!&#8217; there&#8217;s nothing doing, they won&#8217;t move. How, then, can one question the existence of the invisible world?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">If for us the world exists, if we can see the sky and the sun, it is thanks to this invisible principle in us that allows us to discover them by means of these visible instruments, our eyes. If this invisible principle were not there, the fact that we had eyes would be of no use; we wouldn&#8217;t be able to see. The visible world is merely the outer wrapping for the invisible world, and without the invisible world we could know nothing of what exists around us.&#8221;<o:p></o:p></p>
