By Paulo Coelho
From now on - and for some centuries to come - the Universe will help the warriors of the light and boycott the prejudiced.
The energy of the Earth needs renovating.
New ideas need space.
The body and the soul need new challenges.
The future becomes present and all the dreams - except those that involve prejudices - will enjoy the chance to manifest themselves.
Whatever is important will remain; whatever is useless will disappear. For that reason, when lots of people gather to give their opinion on how he should act or behave, the warrior ignores all criticism, understanding that his mission on Earth leaves him no time for explaining everything he does.
He also avoids commenting on the behavior of others: in order to have faith in his own path, he has no need to prove that the path of the other is wrong. Those who act like that have no trust in their own steps.

It is not as easy not to talk about others. But I have a reaction to recognize fastly when it comes in my mouth. Maybe I repeat myself but: Luke 6, 41… :)
And searching exactly that verse, I found two ones of Jean de LaFontaine; whose title is the pouch. The Good God (yes we used to say that in French: the Good God…) created us as “pouchers”.
“He made the back pocket for our faults
And the fore one for the Other's faults”.
(LA BESACE de La Fontaine : le bon Dieu “nous créa tous besaciers”: “Il fit pour nos défauts la poche de derrière
Et celle de devant pour les défauts d'autrui.”)

We are constantly surrounded by persons that want to talk badly about others, and I myself had this reflex. It happened again sometimes, but I definitely try not to do it. Though when I met people that do, now, I say “it is not my business”, or “it's not good to judge our neighbour. And they answer “no! I'm not judging, though they just did the minute before”. This is the only way I found to cut this behaviour. Because I need to act differently. I lived in a family that always did that, and it is the case for most of us. For all in the world. That's why it became a bad habit.
In real, there's so many things to do, and judging is a waste of time.
Love
Catherine.

I think there is a difference between judging someone and using your critical thinking skills so that you obtain an objective view.

Dear paulo,
I know how hard to follow one’s dream,I am following up my spiritual path right now in a church,and extrordinary things happen all the time since I join the congregation,yes ,its a catholic church~When I am more and more getting used to “it”,now I recently found out that,its the priest that who has the special gift of listening people’s heart,I am really upset now,for he is showing off his ability all the time,and I am the target,he is trying very hard to seduce me,which make me very sad……the congregation feels bad as well……please pray for us…..

Dear Paulo,
It seems that you are connected with me, with us, your friends, with telepathy.
I needed to hear this, as so many quotes few times before, right in this moment.
It seems that these days most of people I meet think I am out of my mind, even friends do not understand me well.
It is good to know you are there, somehow I start to believe in collective conscious and it’s power.
Love,
Luce

I have learned over the years that when you make negative comments about someone else, you are really commenting about yourself.
Someone once told me that when you point a finger at another human being in criticism and negativity, be aware (or perhaps beware) of the three fingers that point back at yourself. Try it and see…take one hand, point your index finger straight ahead and see that your middle, ring and baby fingers are all pointing back at you.
It also reminds me of something else I heard a long time ago, from where I’m not sure, to be careful of what you put out into the world because it comes back to you three-fold…or something like that.
Thank you for helping me to remember these things today.

A vision
I have a genius idea. I got this idea some months ago, and is what we can use internet too. Internet is still young, in a philosophic thoughts.
The reason I send this to you I have learned that u are intelligent in form at feelings. It’s a little bit sorry that u have been caught up in the academic world. But I think that ur phd is you’re your personal needs for a lucky life, in this material world. I also have some too, food, house, wine, nice clothes, have oms fun…, but I don’t need personal acknowledgement for my brightness. If my idea is passed on to commercial or academic world the goal is killed.
I am convinced that the material world is build up wrong, finance rises at the moment, war and so on. Even FN is commercial…money talks…stupid people.
Well I have a philosophic idea that we can use internet to spread the messages without governments, one world, like anarchy, but peace. If everybody try to understand that if we are peace with ourselves, we don’t need to fight the material world too much. Socialism in the correct way. There will always be people who want to kill this idea, in wars, kill us, for personal benefit. John Lennon was shoot, Martin Luther King was too. US want to control Asia, material world. In a peace world money don’t talks.
So how do we do this big task easy. Simple and stupid and free, like internet and other tools we use in it our world. It takes only some minutes if we get the right team.
Idea maker (me) philosophic, creative, esthetic artist, focus on goal
IT
Project manager ( not me, I don’t want bin laden and governments on my head).
Presentation manager ( multimedia), Writer
This is the idea fase…. Most of all it is most important to understand me, it not the idea is dead, requires great minds…not political I think, but philosophic…
Can u help
Best regards
A true philosopher, who don’t want too be famus, because then people will not understand our thought that is some thousands years old.
We can live by trade and services. You provide text. My mission is to provide communication to all the people thru internet and think that the OLAP non profit project is nice

u sad it all,Thelma.the last and most difficult step is to love myself more than anybody else.my heart is speaking to me years before i meet the books of Coehlo,thanks to them i understood it*s not wrong hearing it,and listening to it and acting what it*s saying i am all alone now,without nobody near me because noone understands..but i don*t worry very mush ,for i belive in mother nature and her love for us,i wish only that soon more people realize that the sun doesn*t rise only for to lighten their days(etc.)i wish i could do sth to help this process..until then i remain happy of finding this blog.

J’aime le mot “chevalier” plutôt que “guerrier” ( chevalier : noble combat
j’ai une statue d’un jeune samouraï depuis quelques années , et cela me fait toujours penser au “chevalier dans le juste combat ”
alors d’accord avec votre opinion au sujet du terme “guerrier” Valentin
I like the word “chevalier”(knight, horseman ) rather than “warrior” ( chevalier : noble struggle i have a statue of a young samurai for some years , and that I always think of “chevalier in the just struggle ” then in agreement with your opinion about the term “warrior” Valentin

I think, that we must try to expand our knowledge, our beliefs, our souls and minds and be opened to the Earth needs and Universal callings. To stop being narrow minded and understand our inner need which is LOVE. Love for others, for the living Planet, but love for ourselves in the utmost.
Only when our inner needs and desires are .. freed and expressed, then we will be joyful and fearless. The truth will free us. We must dare listen to … our hearts.
Love,
Thelma

This almost brings tears to my eyes.
Thanks.
I posted a picture to an assignment on CNN yesterday. Topic was travels.
The pic is from Kuwait, two men sitting at the beach (and one with two women at the beach).
Point is, a person commenting on that pic really got me going.
I thought to myself: “just shut up, stay quiet”.
I still talked to him, either he got the point, he lost interest or CNN quieted him, because I reported him, I don’t know.

I just seriously hope that you are right and that Mother Earth is renovating herself.
We surely need it. I’m wishing for it with all my Soul!

The final paragraph is just perfect! I’d like to extend it and I’d say that the “Warrior of Light” should be so strong he’s not even requested to fight his opponents, as they have no means to touch him. That’s why I think the name “Warrior” does not name him correctly.

It often happens that many persons are blocked and never grows up because they are too much linked to their past or blame other people for their not realized desires. People who grows are the ones who take their own responsibilities and act instead of reacting.
Someone had said “No matter what kind of past you have had , the important is if you are who you really are now!”

The currents of life are diverse, one day dawn where ideas, emotions and thoughts do not flow. Suddenly you find yourself wrapped in a black blanket, everything around you becomes chaos, then you self examine and because I think this happens, meditate, you drown in your emotions, and it is when you realize that something is not happening as you want to happen. And it’s part of life, the unexpected, change, life is not waiting for your decisions, to flow and your dreams become reality, you can not control the behavior of others, you can not criticize the reality of other people. There are several factors that influence so that life is like one wants to be: 1 - Failure to find an explanation for everything, 2 - Criticizing the behavior of others, 3 - Failing to control everything around you, 4 - Enjoy this, 5 - Be as you are without fear.
Sometimes, you wonder why life, live it because, because my behavior, based on the genetics of your parents and culture gained by everyone, in short patterns learned during your life. What is truth? - The truth is that we are taught from a young age that if we do not get what we want, we cry like babies when things are not happening as we wish we were unhappy, that happiness is a learned behavior based on wishes fulfilled, trial and error. Then we served the black blanket? - We used to get opportunities for improvement as people, diversify our activities, seeing how that happiness is not concentrated in one basket, because if this fails, we would have no happiness. You always have a chance to be happy, but it’s a very personal decision, you should know that not everything in life is an investment fund, where are sure that in future going to receive a return, however, there are investments to short term that have a higher yield, which this call. When you have to invest to keep in mind that it is likely that you stay with nothing, that’s why I repeat that it is better to invest in various investment funds and you’re looking for the standard deviation to measure the probability of return, always bearing in mind that everything has a risk And if the investments do not yield the expected result, the only thing you have left is worthwhile to invest and take risks.

It is so funny that you bring this up Paulo.
So much have happened around me lately, both good and not so good things.
And yesterday I felt like I don´t care anymore, what happens happens, I can only do my best in every situation.
Stand up for my self and my believes with faith.
I can´t waste my energy of helping others if they don´t want to be helped.
I can´t make people listen if they don´t want to, only tell them my truth with love.
And then I will attract thoose people which mirror my believes.
The only thing I can do is to listen inside of me and take action upon what I need to do.
And put my focus and energy into only this.
But it is a process, when I am too close to the wall I can´t see anything, but if I take a step back ,I can easier se the true path and have an overview of the situation.
It´s all about balance dont get stuck and dont run to fast.
Be alert and take step by step :-)
Then I can be aware of my patterns only then I can change them.
Love and courage
Jessica

ce que l’on fait aujourd’hui construit l’avenir
toute action est bonne si elle reste une noble tâche
chacun a à faire
ne pas juger comment fera l’autre et pourquoi , chacun de nous étant un immense puzzle , ce que nous ferons sera bien ( on ne peut juger lorsque l’on ne voit qu’une partie d’un paysage dont nous faisons partie : si vous regardez un homme qui court après un autre homme , vous pouvez pensez une chose ; mais tout à coup vous vous reculez et vous voyez la globalité de l’image , un homme qui court après un autre homme qui courent après un bus , et là vous comprenez autre chose )
What is done today built the future
any action is good if it remains a noble task
everyone has to do
not to judge how will the other and why , each of us as an enormous puzzle , what we do will be well ( one cannot judge when sees only a part of a landscape which we are part :If you look at a man who run after another man , you can think one thing; but suddenly you you are backing away and you see the totality of the image , a man who run after another man who run after a bus , and that you understand something else )
