10 SEC READING: The right tolerance


 
The warriors of light always keeps their hearts clean of feelings of hatred.

When they go to fight, they always remember Christ’s words: “love your enemies”.

And the warriors obey.

But they know that the act of forgiving foes does not force them to accept everything.

Warrior cannot lower their heads – otherwise they lose sight of the horizon of their dreams.

The warrior notes that the adversaries are there to test our persistence, our ability to make decisions.
Adversaries are a blessing – because they force the warriors of light to fight for their dreams.

Love your enemy. But never forget: he is not your friend.

    If I love, it is no enemy anymore.

  2. Angela Serrone says:

    Loving an enemy is really difficult, but I think that for us is important that we try with all ourselves to take that road even though we not arrive at the finish line, like the One who travel it and conquered it to shown to others how is suppose to be done.

  3. Graciela says:

    Amarás a tu prójimo COMO A TI MISMO, supone amar al otro sin dejar de amarse a uno mismo, la chispa divina está tanto en nosotros como en el otro. Somos parte de Dios y del Universo, por lo tanto somos merecedores de igual respeto.
    Amar a nuestro enemigo supone respetarlo y respetar su camino como alma individual aún tratándose de nuestro enemigo, él viene a enseñarnos algo, él es una señal del universo. Al amarlo y respetarlo se nos develará esa señal.

  4. GRACIAS POR ESTAS ENSEÑANZAS

  5. Mark says:

    You rose
    in my dream
    like glorious dawn
    Red orange yellow
    your divine velvet gown
    Enfolds me
    with secret scent
    and sacred sound
    A close embrace
    without space
    for I… am morn

  6. Mark says:

    Love my enemy
    This warrior knows just who
    Gave them light in me

  7. manuela says:

    l’ostacolo è la paura di lasciarsi andare al non essere per non perdere il controllo …grazie per ciò che scrivi.

  8. Mark says:

    When I look at you
    What I know is true
    That I can only see
    What in truth is me

  9. manuela says:

    Grazie è d’aiuto leggere questo…l’ostacolo è la paura di l’asciarsi andare al non essere per non perdere il controllo.

    “Warrior cannot lower their heads – otherwise they lose sight of the horizon of their dreams.”

    Thank you Paulo!
    I will keep this in my mind for who ever criticizes me for that I should low my sight and be more down to earth, “more realistic”.

    Love

  11. manuela says:

    por cierto,,, naci un 12 de Octubre,,, =)

  14. djny says:

    “A warrior of light might be stupidity in the human eye” but per experience way back then, I have found victory by not being affected with angry & hurtful words.. I only made the person realize the truth & never returned any hurting words..
    By not consuming the hatred the other person bequeathed, the one-full of hatred is being punished by him/herself for his/her lack of control and greed.
    Hatred makes you greedy or is a result of greed itself -putting you out of control. Thus, a warrior of light keeps his/heart clean of the feelings of hatred.

  15. Mary says:

    Creo que un corazon limpio…es dificil de tenerlo… amad a nuestros enemigos dificil de asimilar…amad unos a otros..dificil de hacer…pero podriamos ser guerreros de la luz???? hay que tener el alma tan pura como la tuvo Jesus, el odio solo es un sentimiento vano de las personas vacias que ancian por tener un poco de amor de los que otros tienen, los enemigos no son mas que los debiles de corazon que no se atreven a pedir un poco de paz..no son otros que no son capaces de levantarse de esa caida…son debiles que no luchan por la vida!!!!!! Seamos Guerreros de la Luz por un mundo mejor………..

  17. judy says:

    I love your saying “Love your enemy, but don’t forget that he is not your friend”. Buddha said, “An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will would your mind”.

    Buddha said it best when relative to keeping your heart free from hatred. He said, “Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned”.

    Another quote from Buddha on hatred is “Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule”.

    Much contemplation and thought given to this topic today. Thank you for sharing and love and light to all.

  18. LEILA TARUASHVILI says:

    Paulo, how warrior of the light should fell or act if he/she gets falsely accused?

    Can you please tell me this. thank you.

    1. Izabel says:

      As the warrior’s essence is embued with purity and truth, they do not see the accusation as false, merely as another’s truth. As such, in their eyes, they themselves have not been falsely accused. It is the accuser who, in mirror-like fashion, accuses themselves.As such, there is no action to take, just a calm knowing that the light will soon fall upon the accuser and the truth will be revealed.xx

  19. Marietta says:

    So true and yet hard to fulfill and remember. The pure and sincere light reflects the inner power and creates an invisible but strong shelter around:-). God bless you all!

  20. Xergio says:

    No wonder, I never read book(s) (except textbooks during my school days) but when I saw and started to read your Alchemist, I could’t help it. I want to finish it ASAP!!!
    You are a genius Paolo, and I thank you for sharing your talent to us!

    Your blogs too, are a very rich source of inspirational ideas!

    Oh btw, @37, I was only able to read one book and that is your The Alchemist. And you put in my heart “that the secret of happiness is to look at all wonders of the world but never to forget the two drops of oil in my hand”!

  21. harsh says:

    A warrior is one who never thinks about himself but rather thinks about you,me and the world around him.He never fights for his life but he do fight against the enemy within the “enemy”.He on one hand shoots the man infront of him but if the opponent is thirsty he gives him the last sip of water.Its only they who can understand the feelings of love and affection of each other…

  22. Guerrieri della luce è pur sempre come il cammino di Gesù

  23. The best & the most simplifying example of what you are trying to say is found in the movie “Avatar”

    The ‘Navis’ kill thier enemies ( horrifying looking animals ) in this case , but even in that case They bid farewell to the souls with a prayer to go & be in unison with the one divine energy( aika ) in the movie …

    wonder if u have seen the movie , & if you have would like to read your discourse on wonderful integration & visual display of the most true fact in the world – God , supreme energy is ONE…

  24. LEILA TARUASHVILI says:

    Love your enemy. But never forget he is not your friend.

    It is big wisdom in this words.

  25. liset says:

    Un guerrero es un vencedor,la lucha y el buen combate lo acompañan durante todo el camino.nuestros enemigos son nuestros más leales servidores están allí para enseñarnos ponen a prueba nuestras capacidades .

    I like your this book. Its very good…..:). Love Avantika

  27. THELMA says:

    ‘It is the experience of combat which strengthens our will.’

    The power and our WILL – Θέλημα ;-)) – strengthens, but growing older we lose interest in broadening our .. horizons. We focus our attention inside us to find our REAL TREASURES, the real VALUES and LOVE! Of course our head is never lowered because we know we have been good Warriors and we live and still fight with DIGNITY; no matter the … tears and ..missed dreams! Time & space are our prison..

    ‘Warrior cannot lower their heads – otherwise they lose sight of the horizon of their dreams’.

  29. william says:

    What is all related is what St.s paul called the good combat.

    Hatred in the heart will not allow the good combat to occur, as it will damage the warrior´s soul and will cause darkness into it. Therefore, it is important for the warrior to forgive, to remain clean and to continue on the good combat

    However, for the warrior of the light “the act of forgiving foes does not force them to accept everything” as it will cause for the same mistakes to happen and moving on won´t be possible.

    So is what I believe and understand from this text.

  30. Gabriela says:

    I would like to dedicate this post to my husband, hoping we can became warriors os light for our two beautiful kids.

    Birches by Robert Frost

    When I see birches bend to left and right
    Across the lines of straighter darker trees,
    I like to think some boy’s been swinging them.
    But swinging doesn’t bend them down to stay.
    Ice-storms do that. Often you must have seen them
    Loaded with ice a sunny winter morning
    After a rain. They click upon themselves
    As the breeze rises, and turn many-colored
    As the stir cracks and crazes their enamel.
    Soon the sun’s warmth makes them shed crystal shells
    Shattering and avalanching on the snow-crust–
    Such heaps of broken glass to sweep away
    You’d think the inner dome of heaven had fallen.
    They are dragged to the withered bracken by the load,
    And they seem not to break; though once they are bowed
    So low for long, they never right themselves:
    You may see their trunks arching in the woods
    Years afterwards, trailing their leaves on the ground
    Like girls on hands and knees that throw their hair
    Before them over their heads to dry in the sun.
    But I was going to say when Truth broke in
    With all her matter-of-fact about the ice-storm
    (Now am I free to be poetical?)
    I should prefer to have some boy bend them
    As he went out and in to fetch the cows–
    Some boy too far from town to learn baseball,
    Whose only play was what he found himself,
    Summer or winter, and could play alone.
    One by one he subdued his father’s trees
    By riding them down over and over again
    Until he took the stiffness out of them,
    And not one but hung limp, not one was left
    For him to conquer. He learned all there was
    To learn about not launching out too soon
    And so not carrying the tree away
    Clear to the ground. He always kept his poise
    To the top branches, climbing carefully
    With the same pains you use to fill a cup
    Up to the brim, and even above the brim.
    Then he flung outward, feet first, with a swish,
    Kicking his way down through the air to the ground.
    So was I once myself a swinger of birches.
    And so I dream of going back to be.
    It’s when I’m weary of considerations,
    And life is too much like a pathless wood
    Where your face burns and tickles with the cobwebs
    Broken across it, and one eye is weeping
    From a twig’s having lashed across it open.
    I’d like to get away from earth awhile
    And then come back to it and begin over.
    May no fate willfully misunderstand me
    And half grant what I wish and snatch me away
    Not to return. Earth’s the right place for love:
    I don’t know where it’s likely to go better.
    I’d like to go by climbing a birch tree,
    And climb black branches up a snow-white trunk
    Toward heaven, till the tree could bear no more,
    But dipped its top and set me down again.
    That would be good both going and coming back.
    One could do worse than be a swinger of birches.

  33. Pandora says:

    I think adversaries are not necessarily people, they are also systems/corporations, built by greed/ignorance, designed to manipulate, to de-power an individual and their rights, to de-humanise, human beingness.

    An adversary\or adversity must never be allowed to determine a Warriors path, it is always the Warrior’s decision to retreat, or progress. Having faith in their heart, that everything happens for a higher reason.

    It is necessary sometimes to go against the flow, to reach a more favourable current. Where adversity is unavoidable, anger is not useful, but using the opponents anger against them is.

    “Warriors cannot lower their heads – otherwise they lose sight of the horizon of their dreams.”

    This is essential, thank you for reminding me.

  34. Daniel says:

    Perhaps our enemies are a manifestation of what we fear within ourselves. So love is the only answer. This makes me think of my meditation practice, the only way to achieve a quiet mind is to embrace everything that comes with compassion and love until all that remains is breath.

    People often think I wrote this poem for a lover. I didn’t, it’s for every one who reads it. I dreamed you all, you dreamed me.

    I dreamed a world,
    It dreamed me.

    I dreamed a lover,
    She woke me tenderly.

    I dreamed a son,
    He cried in my bed.

    I dreamed an ocean,
    It washed my heart.

    I dreamed a flower,
    It brought bees to my garden.

    I dreamed you,
    You brought life to this poem.

    And perhaps I could add a verse – I dreamed an enemy, he challenged my conviction.

    With love, Daniel

      Thanks Daniel, great poems you write, I read some more at your site, it was reading my inner life!
      Thank you again!

      Thanks for sharing your poem. I really love it.
      and
      Yes I agree: “Our enemies are a manifestation of what we fear within ourselves. So love is the only answer.”
      If you confront your enemies with love, you hold them at your lang arm. And even if they get more furious, they can’t harm you any more.

    5. Esther says:

      Beautiful Daniel! Thanks for sharing!

  35. Annie says:

    I think this whole excerpt is pure poetry..
    —————————–
    Enemies can often wound us..
    Hate is like a big infected wound making your wound worse and worse with the passing of time.. Loving enemies is closing that wound and forgiving is making it disinfected..So ofcourse yes, one can be wounded even though he doesn’t feel hatred.
    ——————————
    I think the right tolerance is more or less like the tolerance of pain one can handle in the/any wound.. how much can one suffer the pain alone before he screams from pain, how much he can handle it before he decides to go to the doctor, how much he can tolerate it before he heals it comletely and for good?
    ——————————
    Warriors are brave, so may not scream from pain, and may not go to the doctor because ‘it will heal’. Or they have great tolerance of pain, making it worse…
    Being brave and being stupid is another thing..

    love and Gratitude
    Annie

    1. Heimo Kruschinski says:

      Thank you Annie for your wonderful thoughts. Yes, it is pure poetry. Just as your thoughts. Very important. Suffering, which means really suffer? Love. As difficult to explain. Stupidity. What is stupid? Love and stupidity are closely intertwined. There is love and love. The love of the wrong things is often worse than hatred. When I see the enthusiasm and love some people treat their cars and how they would treat their fellow human beings, then that aspect of love is of concern. He is stupid. Suffering arises not only from lack of love, but often out of love for the wrong things. This is stupidity. In our pursuit of happiness we can never love the wrong things. Money, power, make them blind. They are just tools, but who already loves a tool? We all make human errors. The worst mistake of my life have never been made for lack of love or hate. They were created out of love for the wrong things. Except one, where I was not in the position myself to love. Jealousy a bad thing. Something that eats away at the soul. That was pure suffering. Hatred. I hate nothing, do not know anyone who hates me and when it did, it would not care. His problem. He destroyed himself, he must be free of it. Similar to loneliness. It does not mean the absence of people. It means to be alone, in his mind. Such people should be looking to help, but not at any price. That is also what I love about Paulo. He gives no answers, he asks questions. And there are no stupid questions.

      Have a wonderful day

    2. Annie says:

      I love your thoughts, thank you dear Heimo :o)
      Esp. what you say about love for the wrong things

      However,I don’t know if there is a love that is wrong.. One has got to start from somewhere.. Ultimately this ‘love for the wrong things’ will possibly lead to ‘love the right things’.

      Love and Gratitude
      Annie

    3. Heimo Kruschinski says:

      Thanks for the compliment. I give it back. You’re right, I’m also not sure whether there is a wrong love. There are only thought about it. But that’s the exciting about the thoughts on love, death, God. We will never finish. Because we would say we were there, we were really finish. Many people say they were on destination, never have begun to leave. I hope I never reach the destination. :-) But love is worth every effort. And I hope that I love the right things. In humility and with God’s help.

      Love and Respect for you
      Heimo

    4. elaine says:

      Hello, sweet Annie!

      The first time I came onto Paulo’s Blog, you were here and your words filled me with so much love. Thank you for your thoughts here.

      You always close your thoughts with “Love and Gratitude.” I have a dear friend who seems to perceive every little thing from a grateful perspective. I’ll have to admit that it gets annoying sometimes, but I love him dearly. He is always amazed by the smallest of things, i.e. the feel of mashed potatoes on his tongue. ;-) By being around him, I have grown so much and have learned that when you are truly thankful for every little thing in your life, including the trials of everyday life, you start being grateful when the next challenge hits you because you know that it will make you stronger.”

      Love and Gratitude,
      Lainee

    5. Annie says:

      my dear fantastic Lainee,
      yes i know it can be annoying, it’s bugging my friends sometimes, I’m told :).. but what i really found is that it really helps me/someone be in the present and live this moment..like it is a miracle!.
      I love what you say “..truly thankful for every little thing in your life, including the trials of everyday life..”.
      It’s easy to be grateful for the good things.. but being grateful for the trials too is also essential.. they can magically become blessings .. the mistakes are there to learn.. the difficulties are there to become stronger.. the challenges are there to grow..etc.

      Grateful for that first day you came in the blog, love you

      Love and gratitude
      Annie

  36. Kealan says:

    By forgiving an enemy it gives them the choice to proceed fighting or to choose to forgive also. Many an enemy stayed fighting the same fight all their lives but if they chose forgiveness they could also have loved.

    “All said and done a true soul do not harbour resentment or ill will “,”It badly wants to shed off all the arrogance it has accumulated over the years staying among critics, conniving attitudes, the list is just endless..”, this is what I had in mind for my status today .Coincidentally i can see it here , Its a wonderful surprise….But circumstances are such that sometimes a befitting reply needs to be given for your own space , My battle in life is not a fight with people around, its a fight against the odds fate has so genoursly surrounded me with. And the odds itself is an alarm for me to stay on my path ,reinforcing that what the soul yearns for is actually right..

  40. Heimo Kruschinski says:

    Good morning. Beautifully properly. But I ask one thing to consider. A warrior is a warrior. He has several weapons. The weapon of satire and sarcasm and provocation are aspects of a fight. If they are carried forward in love, they are justified. Drag masks from their faces. But a warrior of light is always committed to love. That is absolutely correct and is nothing to add. But Jesus also used these weapons, better than anyone. He has managed, with Perfection people to be portrayed as morons. This is just a thought from me.

    I wish you all a wonderful day

  41. Deanne says:

    I have that person who is constantly testing me in my ex-husband. Lord, he won’t give me a brake even though it has been more than a decade.

    I have never felt hatred towards him only sadness and never feel hatred towards any one.

    When will the testing end though? I keep asking what the lesson is because he is relentless and in my business all the time.

    I pray for the light to heal this situation and let me live and let be.

    Thank you, I needed this!

    Let's take two villages. On the first one there is war, famine, and people hurt each other for just a little rest.
    In the other village, people share and love and their children arrive on it in a harmonious present, within Nature.

    That's the idea of the french writer Jean-Jacques Rousseau. And I quite agree with. Though many others thinkers may have told it before him, and though (it said) he abandonned his children, he wrote: “Man is inherently good, the society corrupt him”.

    Mimesis is a best enemy, because he only let traces on his path.
    Mimesis is a very good friend cause it can be contagious, raising light feelings.

  45. Alexandra says:

    In poor words,always keep things in the right balance.I am sorry I not succed always,but you are helping me remembering how it is supposed to be.I keep trying.

  46. wanbliska says:

    Today I was lead to this:

    “Imagine the foolhardiness of settling anything with war! That is like saying, “I will settle down to sleep by staying awake!” Settle matters with war? Why, that is a way to be unsettling. By what right can wars be declared? By what right can wars be fought? And yet there are even wars among families. Why not, when wars are always against something in yourself?

    Whatever someone wants to do, he will find reasons for it. Whatever you want, you will find reasons for. If you want to fight, you will find reasons to fight. If you want to make peace, you will find reasons to make peace. You can find reasons galore for anything you want. Is it possible you want fear? For what other reason would you have so much of it? Do you really think you can make friends with fear? I suppose if you think you make peace by wars, then you can think that fear is the way to freedom from fear.

    If I ask you, “What need is there for fear?” in a lucid moment, you would say, “None.” Yet when you are in the midst of fear, you might, in a shaky voice, give Me a long list.

    Beloveds, you do not need the armor of fear any more than the world needs wars.” God through Gloria Wendroff.

    I really understand nor anger nor fear are worth. Since I can’t find an issue with my brain…
    Maybe some actions against your creation are unbearable for me. :(

    Thank you

  47. Tania says:

    It is best to thank your enemies for making you wiser ..It takes alot more energy to hold a grudge for ever and a day or it takes courage and strength to ask your heart and God to not let you have these feelings about another, one of his children …(your own brothers and sisters in fact) .
    It might make you work a bit harder ,but that is how you build strength and character .
    And as we know Rome was not built in a day and neither is the warrior .
    Blessings Tania
    Have a joyful weekend -Your pictures are amazing ,I hope you had a good celebration ..

  48. wanbliska says:

    “Love your enemies as I loved you”

    To my mind, this sentence can’t be cut as “love your enemies”. Indeed I never heard it like that.

    Now I can imagine:
    It is a fact that there were always wars and hatred on earth since the beginning. While love and share was a company for some people.
    For a long time, Kings have been existing, in front of people that had infinitely asked for a better life. Those kings, and because they have been envying more lands, more materials, more secrets and more witnessed objects of God, -who could say why-, they’ve been using the other part of humans towards these conquests.

    So now, after all these years, we can think about a genocide, not on blacks, reds, yellows or poors, but humanity.
    Bless our children died in all those blind terrors.
    Of course, people could refuse to make war, moreover since they don’t know the ins and outs, nor how to get them.
    Gandhi understood so quite well, when he set in motion that non-violent crowd, conducted by his wisdom and the people’s fear of losing him. Also, he met politicians to make things change, he did not obtain things, only thanks to fasts. But still, what an example…

    In our days, there is an idea that comes as a vogue, that can’t still fit with my brain. The fact to love one’s enemy, period.
    I guess it is the wise way to go forward and improve oneself, but, who is my enemy?
    My enemy could be my neighbour, my brother, some president, or maybe you, reading me…
    But there is a significant difference between my neighbour, my brother, some president, or maybe you, regarding to the hatred I could feel. As my neighbour and my brother and you are from the people, whereas president deals with kings.

    That’s why discouragement is growing. When my enemy is my neighbour I could fight with him, or merely talk with him. And I know that the end of the fight is suddendly a possible issue. I know I can create a better place with my neighbour, but as for kings, I have real doubts.
    I know we can’t make a scale with love, neither hatred. But kings create a real ladder, one has the right to climb, and the other not. Of course, to climb, you should better forget the word “love”. And as much the love is growing in heart’s people, as much the organizations are becoming higher without reach, to offer better manipulation.

    One century ago, one could hope for an arousal. One could hope the kings had heart, though they were nearly all the same. But what about nowadays? History and Daily prove us they don’t want to take this chance to change.
    Organizations that seem to make the world more equal are all corrupted. It is easy to read it, just by having a look in their treaties and votes, acts and laws… it is easy to see their rotted fruits now.
    When Jesus said that we had to love our enemy as he loves us, indeed it doesn’t mean we have to accept everything.
    If He is a metaphor of love: in the whole love he was gifted, it happened he was in anger, and had hatred sometimes. Even through his apostles. From apocryphals to New Testament, it happens. Yet, he showed by his passion, that he could go through hatred. And so was the wish of God: Jesus lived the unbearable.

    Some could say I divise people in two, but that’s maybe one of the biggest question of my life. I had at least 30 years to observe these enemies. My position of human brings me to judge them, though I do sometimes. I just say how it is. If men created a justice court, it is well to judge the weaks, isn’t it? Nevertheless, bigger murders are free.
    Fashion says I’m the author of all that hatred. Do I have to accept that? I’m wiser and wiser each day. Lover and lover each day. Millions of people have become pacifists. That’s a truth.
    Fashion says I’m guilty for other’s mistakes or murders. Because sometimes I made bad things? Notice that we explain more and more to people, that the torturer is the victim. And people believe in it.

    Do I agree that some persons have not a drope a water to drink, nor food to eat?
    Do I agree with all war deads since the beginning?
    Do I agree with crimes?
    Do I agree with polluted water?
    Do I agree with atomic bombs?
    Do I agree with OGMs?
    Do I agree with political tricks obsessed with materials rather than animals and nature?
    Do I agree with bankers that ruin our economy and steal people everyday?
    Do I agree with the nuclear attempts that cause the anger of elements and destroy root-and-branch cities?
    Do I agree with the torture and slavery on animals?
    Do I agree with all that detestation of God’s creation?
    No I don’t. It doesn’t mean I hate those who do that.

    People don’t know. People are good and confident. And all those came to give hope to our heart, while they were dealing with politics, were assasinated…
    Getting better and better everyday, while they are devastating the whole? This is the very point…
    “Ayuda en tu calle” cuando hacen explotar bombas en la otra?
    I totally join up with your wise words, but still, my heart tells me there’s something wrong with it. Something wrong in the fact of forgetting Kings acts of hate, at each second. We can be in love and still not be blind.
    But, truly, what we are supposed to do?
    At last, should I love the devil? There’s quite a non-sense in this blind love, when kings are destroying us… people love, but still has bank account, use cars everyday, show stupid things on TV, look for a job for a house for money for beautiful cars… We are already accepting the devil each morning we wake up.

    Gandhi had to make India independant. Our chore is bigger: will the seed be divine…

    That’s why there is love, and love…

    Let’s take two villages. On the first one there is war, famine, and people hurt each other for just a little rest.
    In the other village, people share and love and their children arrive on it in a harmonious present, within Nature.

    That’s the idea of the french writer Jean-Jacques Rousseau. And I quite agree with. Though many others thinkers may have told it before him, and though (it said) he abandonned his children, he wrote: “Man is inherently good, the society corrupt him”.

    Mimesis is a best enemy, because he only let traces on his path.
    Mimesis is a very good friend cause it can be contagious, raising light feelings.

    “A warrior of the light always keeps his heart clean of feelings of hatred..”
    yes…always.
