		<description>If you read the prologue carefully, you will see that Paulo mentions his meeting with Brida.He was about to write a book about his pilgrimage to Rome and at that time he met Brida.She told him her story of how she became Mistress of RAM as Paulo had.The story is not fictional.It is based on true facts.
So yes, there is such &quot; society&quot; out there.This is what Paulo is trying to tell us ,among others, in his books.

		<description>Para mi, Brida fue el libro perfecto en el momento perfecto,
Brida literalmente me cambio la vida y me ayudo a elegir entre lo que queria y lo que me convenia. 

GRACIAS. GRACIAS por cada libro, por cada reflexion. GRAN MAESTRO COELHO.

&quot;Quien intenta poseer una flor vera marchitarse su belleza, pero quien se limita a mirarla en un campo, permanecerá para siempre con ella.
Tú nunca  serás mío y por eso te tendré para siempre. Tú fuiste la esperanza de mis días de soledad, la angustia de mis momentos de duda, la certeza de mis momentos de fe.
Solo por tener la certeza de tu existencia es por lo que continuo existiendo&quot;.</description>

		<description>I have just read &quot;Brida&quot; and although you state that this book is fictional, I cant help but beleive that there is a society just like this out in the world. There were many instances where I could relate to.. and wonder if my maltese heritage ... har delem temples.. medina....and some strange things that have happened to me.. are in fact not in my imagination. Is this book truely fictional?</description>

		<description>so many things happened, and i had started to think that i was just a mad. years past, and they all stole from my soul... today i read your book, and i realised that i wasnt mad or wrong. there was no one to teach me or to someone to believe me.  i hope there is a way to come back myself... i wish i was stronger. or i hope this is just a way of life to teach me something.</description>

		<description>Hello,
i dont understand one thing. Its in my mind for many many years. From the time i started reading C. Castaneda. I wanted and want to meet a teacher who can guide me in all these matters of ‘magic’ but until now i met none. In the books they say and here i saw that the teacher is looking for me as well but as i said i still havent met one. Why is so? One can say im not prepared to meet one but that is always a nice comfy reply :) Or life wants me to find myself on my own on purpose?
What i found was that the life and me are my teachers, including one person i love most of all and who by refusing to be with me opened my eyes for myself even more than all the books ive read. Then i found that the nature is also a teacher and a healer and that theres a connection of sort between people and nature. Connection experienced through will and believe i might say. Finally the other weird teacher for me was the dream. There i was thought some lessons and have met some creatures which changed my personality and view over some matters.
So in the light of the above said is it following that i am a follower of the Tradition of the Sun?

Happiness to all</description>

		<description>I agree with Jenn. I found inspiration and uplift and challenge in your books. Of the six I&#039;ve read, so far, I love this one and Veronika Decides to Die. I&#039;ve spent my life seesawing between belief and unbelief, between searching and aloofness. I think Jenn has struck it when she says that most religion is rigid--I see each as protecting its own fiefdom of &quot;rightness.&quot; Foo on righteousness or any other good thing. Just so long as bragging over being right can be had. 

And I do hope you will speak to the deep questions of the ongoing search for the teacher we each need. 

Thank you.

		<description>Good Afternoon Paulo!

I have read many of your books now and feel so inspired when I do.  The two that have affected me the most were Brida and The Witch of Portobello.  I felt very good while reading them.

I was raised in a Christian family and attended an Episcopal church throughout high school.  I never quite felt impassioned through church because of the rigid ness of it all.  Although I have never been able to not believe God, I have also questioned why each church always felt that their way was the right way.  This lead me to believe in God under my terms - be kind and loving and respectful of people and nature and God will be pleased.

In your books, you speak of the Tradition, which through internet research seems to be Wicaa.  You also write of God through a Christian standpoint - or I guess more specifically a Catholic standpoint.  

I guess my question is, how much of your writing is actually nonfiction when it comes to religion?  In &quot;By the river Piedra I sat down and wept&quot;   You write of the Catholic church being influenced to accept that the Virgin Mary was a manifestation of the Mother Goddess.

I am apparently at a point in my life that I am looking for a place to belong when it comes to religion.  As I said, I was much affected when reading Brida and The Witch of Portobello, but I also like the idea that Christianity is just partially wrong - that its not as black and white as they like to put it.

I would appreciate a response, you are the first &quot;famous&quot; person I have ever written to.  But you are also the first person who has ever written anything that moved me so much!  I will also post this on the Brida and Witch of Portobello discussion pages as some of your other readers may be of assistance to me as well!

Thanks!
Jenn</description>

		<description>Your spiritual path really evolved? I wish mine would grow as well. I had this feeling that people who enjoy Coelho&#039;s books are gifted. I just hope that his books would help me not to struggle with this ungrateful life.</description>

		<description>Are the Traditions you said in the novel really exist? I was caught by your books and i despised the feeling that these parts of life are real. Are you a psycho? But you know what, i love you for being here, of course with your books.</description>

		<description>Whenever I read any of Paulo Coelho&#039;s books I feel for a period of time that I am communing with someone who is able to reach me on a deep soul level.  I become more introspective after reading his books - more focussed on authenticity and the courage needed to be who I truly am.  My spiritual evolution continues and I am grateful for communications that facilitate and support that.  What I have become aware of on my spiritual journey is that, initially you search for knowledge and understanding externally.  Some time later you begin to understand that all of the answers you seek are within you - we are our own Magus and Wicca.  The key lies in developing the patience and stillness to listen to our inner wisdom and then having the courage to action that guidance.  Reading Paulo Coelho helps me to remember that - thank you Paulo.</description>

		<description>-reading Brida-
Made me Cry 
Build my Strength, 
Open my wings to Fly 
even more then before
searching the depth in Me.. 
wonder about the piece or pieces of -my- Soul.. 
I know of one ..may build a bridge ... may burn a bridge.. 
am not insecure
to reunite
come side by side 
shine this Light
Question is .. I see...I learn.. do I move on.. ?
Always Be, Him and Me..
Even without being together in this Life.. 
Or Him really Recognize..
Is it Me.. running away? 
Is it not I found All in myself and This to be the Road .. 
Is it Fear, still... or common Sense? 
As I have been told..
My Peace my Quite.. disturbed.. or was it Peace at all...?
Need not to be completed to be Whole..?
What does it mean for my other part, 
who might be with another piece of his Soul..
Who am I to interfere
I guess I will disappear.. 
Or I won&#039;t..This Time..
I do not Fear.. 
Even if You..
Disappear .. 
Where Live will take me
With or without.. 
There will be 
My real Peace to be found..
As One ..
Inside of Me..
There my Love,
You will Always Be.</description>

		<description>Dearest Paulo,

Hope we could meet one time.

I like brida and I just want to say that you are amazing to let brida stay with Lorens. Not only because he is &quot;one of&quot; her &quot;soulmates&quot; and that she loves him. Also because of their commitment.

I have a lot of questions about the traditions...I am reading The Valkyries now... I think last 10 pages. Almost finished. Certain things that contradict teachings of religion.

Im reading your book monthly. So now I&#039;m on my 4th book since today is april. Your amazing :D I hope I read them long ago.

thank you</description>

		<description>Obviously I&#039;m not Paulo. 

Hope I could help.

Lorens is also Brida&#039;s soulmate. Not only that, he is the one that Brida loves. Remember when the magus thought that brida is lorens? its because of the light. Lorens is Brida&#039;s soulmate, so as Lorens is the magus&#039;.

Brida said chose the magus at one point only because they both follow the path of magic.</description>

		<description>Hello! I really enjoy the book like others. but... i have ine question, may be you can give me the answer... I wrote, that real love do not need love in return. I can&#039;t understand it. I fekt in love twice in my life and twice it was unrequited love. Well, it is unrequited. I feel I love the man, but now I can&#039;t find him. it is impossible for me to understand, that may be i will NEVER see him. I don&#039;t know how he is, where and with whom he lives.I live in Moskow and every time i go to the metro, I hope to see him there. I believe. so i am alone. i love. but i need love in return, or i need just knowledge about him. Maybe it is the lesson - maybe i should learn to love without need of love in return...</description>
