Question: Are good and evil absolute for everyone?
Answer: God’s law is the same for everyone, but evil depends particularly on the desire one has to commit it. Good is always good, and evil is always evil, whatever a man’s position may be; the difference lies in the degree of his responsibility.
Question: Occasionally, evil seems to be a consequence of circumstances. That is the case, for instance, in the necessity of destruction, even that of fellow man. Can one say there is a breach of God’s law in such cases?
Answer: Evil is no less evil, even when it may be necessary, but such necessity disappears as the soul becomes purer, in passing from one existence to another. And then man is even more culpable when he does something evil, because he better comprehends it.
Question: The evil we commit is frequently a result of the position where others have placed us in. Who is more culpable in such a case?
Answer: The responsibility lies with the one who has caused it. As a result, he who is led into evil by circumstances forced upon him is less culpable than those who created such circumstances in the first place. Thus, each and every man shall bear the punishment not only for the wrongs he himself committed, but also for those he induced others to commit.
~ The Spirits’ Book by Allan Kardec, Chapter 1, part 3, 636, 638, 639
Ideals: Reaction: Observe your emotions and consider what they are signaling. To a large extent, how you react and respond to life depends on how you perceive it to be. Step away for awhile. Clarity requires balance and detachment. Let love be the catalyst for an enlightened outcome. Accepting your emotional self leads to being calm, composed and blessed in every solution.
Base Foundation: Surface: Just below the surface of what we think is reality, is the powerful, dreamlike realm of imagination. It is from this world of pure creativity that everything comes to life, is built or discovered. Your imagination is not restricted to the physical or known world. It is unlimited, multidimensional, free and clear. Mine the treasures of your soul and let your true self surface.
What is already behind you: Fragments: Beyond your thoughts there is the mirror of infinity. It is a clear space through which you will see your true reflection. Here you can see your whole self – your shadows and your light. See that you are beautiful. You have nothing to prove, nothing to hide; you are blessed and held in the loving field of the Divine Mother.
The present: Preservation: Peace is a surrendering. Love is vulnerable. Allow yourself to trust and believe that love is here for you. You are safe, protected and loved by the Divine. Let love water the seeds of joy, creativity and contentment that lie within you. Accept the blessings of this world into your heart so your true self can blossom.
The foreseeable future: Discernment: Breathe in the Divine Mother’s deep love for this world. Surround yourself with works of peace and compassion. Take on the beauty and joy of living. Increase your concentration of love, and it will naturally flow out into the world, from high to low, following the channels to where it is needed most. The energy you foster in yourself and in the world is a choice. Be selective. Choose love.
Still in the shadows: Influence: Only through the eyes of the soul can the true nature of your life, existence and purpose be known. All of life flows from one divine heart of creation. You have a purpose, a meaning and a role to play in this great journey of life. It may be beyond the knowing of the physical world, but it is not beyond the knowing of your soul.

This incredible photo marks the end of Matador Torero Álvaro Múnera’s career. He collapsed in remorse mid-fight when he realized he was having to prompt this otherwise gentle beast to fight. He went on to become an avid opponent of bullfights. Even grievously wounded by picadors, he did not attack this man.
Torrero Munera is quoted as saying of this moment: “And suddenly, I looked at the bull. He had this innocence that all animals have in their eyes, and he looked at me with this pleading. It was like a cry for justice, deep down inside of me. I describe it as being like a prayer – because if one confesses, it is hoped, that one is forgiven. I felt like the worst shit on earth.”
Listen to your heart. Embrace what makes you happy. There are one million reasons to Love.
This day I will love. before I talk I will listen. Before I criticize I will forgive. Before I judge I will think. I remember that after all of this is over, the only thing that will really count is how we treated each other and how much we have loved.
Be with the ones who make you shine, who Love you and really care. Keep those and let the others go.
This day I open myself to have the companions and friends I want and deserve in my life. I know true friends are the ones who weave magic into my days and bring out the best in me. But the other ones, the false friends, I will see them for who they are and let them go. I now choose the company of those who know I am valuable, lovable, and worthy, for I am.
Be bold. Rise up and stand tall. Feel the fire in your Soul.
This day I will connect with my inner power and be bold. I will rise up and know my worth. I banish all uncertainty and remember with pride my accomplishments. I will let no one diminish me. I embrace the strong, beautiful presence that I am and I will go forth with courage.
Your dreams have untold energy. Open the door and let them live. Desire and belief are your power.
This day I acknowledge that my life is expanding and new doors are opening. I will let go of unwanted past experiences, forgive, and be grateful for lessons learned. I will be filled with a vision of everything that I want my life to be, do, and have, and let the magic happen. I give thanks in advance for all the blessings on their way.
Embrace the need for solitude. Your inner sanctuary calls you. Renew yourself and thrive.
This day I realize deeply that this present moment is all I really have and that NOW is my sanctuary. It has all the magic and happiness that I need. I let go of the past for I am not there. I let go of the future for it has not yet happened. I look within and find the peace and joy I seek in this divine moment and I will flourish.
