The following is a loose translation and
condensation of a chapter from the book Par L'Esprit du Soleil (By the Spirit
of the Sun) by Anne and Daniel Meurois-Givaudan. The book contains messages
of different topics given by the historical Jesus to the couple while they
were in Damascus, Syria. Jesus would appear in their room and talk about
different subjects. As Meurois-Givaudan explains, it not important to figure
out if Jesus is again physically present or not. It is the message that
counts. Love, What does this word mean? Even with the
power from the heart, humanity in general does not know what love is. Mankind
knows the impulse that has the name love, it knows a feeling that resembles
it and that is the result of emotions. Emotions are like brakes when trying
to reach your destination. The seat of emotional reality is situated
in that sensitive area between stomach and navel. You call this center the
solar plexus, manipura chakra or astral chakra. With most people this has
been developed so strongly, that we easily can say that it is their most
important driving force. What I want to convey to you is that mankind
is still primarily living and expressing itself by the energy of emotions.
Emotion, as you need to look at it in this context, emanates from the lower
personality. It is a heliocentric, egocentric power that enforces itself
to anyone as an instinct. It implies an instinctive, very animal energy.
Emotion is a primal force that has its place in relation to procreation
and self-protection. It is a necessary phase for the lower personality to
develop a coherent form. Unfortunately, man rarely transcends the lower
personality as he sinks away all to often in the swamp of emotions. Maybe
you will say that there are beautiful emotions that elevate the human soul.
But those energies come from feelings welling up by themselves from a direct
connection with the Spirit of Love. Understand that emotions are different.
Emotions are difficult to control, they have a limited consciousness, and
they often show their weakness as power, their injustice as justice. True
feelings are born from a union with the All and seldom sprout forth in the
hearts of man. Emotions are like storm troops showing another ideal than
the one they actually carry. What does it mean when man is talking about "to
love"? It is an emotion to give with the secret wish and a strong need
to receive a reward. He wants to receive something that will confirm his
believe in life. Emotional love is like a trade. On the path to my Father
it is important to recognize this and understand the sphere of emotions
and the egocentric impulses, in order to remove those heavy obstacles.
You look like divers who have a lack of oxygen but who do nothing to solve
a difficult situation. You lose yourself in an ocean of emotions which,
despite the suffocation, is so attractive that you are afraid to lose a
part of yourself when you reach for the surface. It is necessary to go to
the surface in order to discard all the false pretenses. As you don’t
have to wage war against your ever present physical hunger, also don’t attack
your emotional hunger. Look at it in a peaceful way. The reason why emotions
are present in each of you is because the eternal power has allowed them
to exist in you. If true love is your goal, look at emotions as beacons,
as elements of the landscape from which your soul learns. When everything
in yourself looks like raging waters and earthquakes, sit still and look
at how it moves and progresses. You will always find fear and anxieties
that are based on nothing, but that nevertheless will launch subtle defense
mechanisms. Learn to look at emotions with joy, that is with a power full
of confidence, open and calm. The flower that will be born from the emotional
body is called sensitiveness. It is starting to emerge in a form that does
not exist in any other place of the Milky Way. This flower is so special
that it has to be treated with a thousand precautions, in order to become
constructive. The ability to feel can emanate an immense creative force
and can make compassion rise up, but it can also become the tool with which
the soul will poison itself. The gift my Father gave to this wave of
life is mostly in the specific character of the ego, the inescapable fruit
of free will. Your problems are mostly and for all the stones with which
you construct your being. To recognize this is the antidote to the venom
of emotions. I am telling you: look at the obstacles like you would look
at a caravan passing by in the distance. By doing this you will learn to
love the life that has been given you, as you now are not identifying yourself
anymore with that which is experiencing difficulties in your inner center.
That which you think is you, is only a screen on which your ego-focused
soul projects its illusions. Know that controlling emotions is controlling
illusions. Bring it out: "I love! I love this love that gives us
a thousand opportunities to work on ourselves. I love this life because
I am no longer the stream of impulses moving by in myself, because I have
never been that stream. I love life because the pain of my soul is not a
punishment but a sign that I was on the wrong track." Take my hand
I am extending to you. Not to take you out of the abyss for which you are
afraid so often, but to give you back your own hand and to fill your heart
with joy.
