Stop being so scared of me. I do not judge you or criticize you, nor get angry, or bothered.
I am pure love.
Stop asking for forgiveness.
There’s nothing to forgive.
If I made you… I filled you with passions, limitations, pleasures, feelings, needs, inconsistencies… free will.
How can I blame you if you respond to something that I put in you?
How can I punish you for being the way you are if I’m the one who made you?
Do you think I could create a place to burn all my children who behave badly for the rest of eternity?
What kind of god would do that?
Stop disrespecting your peers and yourself.
All I ask is that you pay attention to your life.
Allow alertness to be your guide.
Stop believing in me.
Believing is assuming, guessing, and imagining.
I don’t want you to believe in me, I want you to believe in you.
I want you to feel me in you when you kiss your beloved, when you tuck in your little girl,
when you caress your dog, and when you bathe in the sea.
Stop praising me.
What kind of egomaniac God do you think I am?
I’m bored with being praised. I’m tired of being thanked.
Feeling grateful?
Prove it by taking care of yourself, your health, your relationships, and the world
. Express your joy!
That’s the way to praise me.
Stop complicating things and repeating as a parakeet what you’ve been taught about me.
What do you need more miracles for? So many explanations?
My beloved, this life is not a test, not a step on the way, not a rehearsal, nor a prelude to paradise.
This life is the only thing here and now and it is all you need.
I have set you absolutely free, no prizes or punishments, no sins or virtues, no one carries a marker, no one keeps a record.
You are absolutely free to create in your life.
Heaven or hell. I can’t tell you if there’s anything after this life, but I can give you a tip.
Live as if there is not. As if this is your only chance to enjoy, to love, to exist.
So, if there’s nothing after, then you will have enjoyed the opportunity I gave you.
And if there is, rest assured that I won’t ask if you behaved right or wrong.
I’ll ask,
Did you like it?
Did you have fun?
What did you enjoy the most? What did you learn?
The only thing for sure is that you are here, that you are alive, that this world is full of wonders.
– Spinoza
