"FREE THE CHAINS IN YOUR MIND" - read complete chapters at merlinmoon's website
“A flower is always a flower wherever in the world it grows. It always represents the same figure and it adapts to the environment that surrounds it without changing its meaning in life. It only changes the process of growth and the time it takes to flourish.”
CHAPTER 1 - In Search of the light
"The men of the great assembly rule with great wisdom, in which the world is maintained with pure kindness among people. We should let the fear of heaven guide our senses and define our will. Life is a powerful vacuum in which our power of will defines our destiny.
Why do harm? Why cause suffering? Why do we need to break laws of nature in order to seek false happiness through selfishness...."
CHAPTER 2- We are what we are
"The need to be around people starts when one cannot be in silence. Humans adapt to any situation the world presents upon them. It is crucial to understand that oneself comes before anything else when confidence is lost. This act cannot be called selfishness because in such a state there is nothing to give that will bring some sense to a puzzle with no picture..... "
CHAPTER 3 - The Purpose
"Not everything learned makes a difference in the world. The ability to make a difference does not come from the knowledge gained, but rather from the way that it is learned. Peace of mind cannot be given randomly to people, because this would open doorways not meant for everyone, resulting in confusion...."
CHPATER 4 - Mistakes withouth reason
"Mistakes are made without the intention of doing something wrong. Children play with fire and explore from every angle anything that they see, trying to understand and identify life in their pure and innocent way. A match seems magical in their tiny eyes, because they don’t know that oxygen at high temperature becomes fuel and the match is just a trigger. Children see the danger, of course, only when it hurts, empowering the sense of fear....."
CHAPTER 5 - Time
"Time sets points in space to draw lines between paths. If time would measure distance, humanity’s happiness would be endless. We would be looking back at all the steps taken in different directions without thinking of the time that each step took. If people can liberate their minds from their old ideas about age and time, every second will feel like the last and people will feel more power to live and breathe despite being unaware of the reason.... "
CHAPTER 6 - The Power of Wisdom
"The words of the wise are the light of truth, a truth that no one seems to understand; and those who think that they do get lost in a trance of misinterpretation. Wisdom is the ultimate power of men to create worlds without frontiers. It is very unfortunate that humanity has not yet learned to take advantage of such a gift. On the contrary, the perception of its existence is lost as time fades into sunsets......"
CHAPTER 7- Rewinding Tape
"Our life is a rewinding tape in which our future is the past of memories we have not yet experienced. We are all children of God looking for the path that takes us closer the truth.
Unfortunately for every right road there are thousands that make us get lost in circles, fall from our cloud and loose hope...."
CHAPTER 8- Evolution
"Humanity evolves through points of rebellion among itself. Evolution leaves marks that can be easily traced through history, scars that once were painful and now carry valuable experiences with the power to change the course of destiny. These marks carry the strong burden of helping us to understand that the purpose of past experience is for us to mature and move on....."
CHAPTER 9- The System
"For hundreds of years humanity has suffered trying to understand the social behavior of men with power. Many have tried to change the world by changing the system, and every time it has failed. To change the world, people must change first, becoming aware of what it takes to find the right path toward joy.... "
CHAPTER 10- On our own
"The essence of life is in our natural inclination to discover it on our own. Gold is easy to find if we know where to dig. Nobody can help us find the path; anyone who tries to help will misguide the thought of any action to be taken. It is hard to believe that there is nobody around that can help. We can visualize ourselves alone in a white room where everything we see is a reflection of our imagination. ...."
CHAPTER 11- Being awakened
"The human species is more fragile, delicate and complex than what we all know from experience. The body and the mind are two separate elements consisting of many parts that have equal importance. The perfect synthesis of all these parts creates the soul of a being, feelings that cannot be described as essence but can be characterized by what creates them....."
