THE MEDITATION
 

There are questions in the air, sometimes difficult to be answered.

It happened that a meditator, wanted to know things that he kept asking himself since childhood; it seemed kind of silly but he wanted to know if monsters exist, where do they live, how do they look and if they are as evil, cruel and horrible as they say.

He then started to meditate with great enthusiasm for that purpose; one day passed, then, two days, one month, and after three months the enthusiasm had wore out somewhat but since he was very determined, he continued.

A year passed, and then 2, 3, 4 years and almost at the end of the fifth year, he had a revelation:

He saw himself contemplating a city with parks, gardens, it was a beautiful place, well kept and decorated. Then, he saw a man with strange or different appearance, this man was walking by the main street and his hair was unkempt, he had a confused look and disheveled clothing.

He was walking towards the door of a house and as soon as he knocked the door, the alarm started ringing. Immediately, the place was full of people. It was early in the morning and there were a lot of businessmen, housekeepers, and elderly persons going for a walk, who, when they saw this man, immediately commented:

" He is very strange, he must be a thief, notice his appearance."
While others said: " He is a monster, let's call the authorities. How dreadful!"

And it was like this that the meditator had that vision, he saw a city and saw a monster.

He then said: " There are monsters, in truth" And when he was ready to get up, a voice said: " Wait, this is only the beginning, keep meditating and you will know more about the monster."

He obeyed his inner voice, while thinking that he already knew the monster who was different, very different to people.

After the voice told him to continue the meditation, he did, but on this occasion, there were no more visions; and the days, months, even the years passed, even the double of years that the first vision.

Then, suddenly, he could return to the same scene with the same persons, but this time the meditator came closer to the persons and he could go into the hearts of the persons of the city and he could read the heart of the monster, who was thinking:

" What a beautiful place, these persons must be very good, for sure, they probably have achieved all this with their effort. That's nice! I am a humble man who did not have the opportunity to achieve more and by chance, I have found this city, I am tired, thirsty, maybe I can ask for a small or big job so I can get some water and follow my path."

But he could also read the hearts of the persons of that town and they were repeating: " How dreadful, what a bad smell, he seems to be crazy, he probably wants to steal from us, he probably is envious, and wants to harm us. Let's throw him out, and if necessary let's kill him. What horrible appearance, kind of inhuman." 

Then, the meditator was overcome by the force of the comments and he wanted to get up, but the voice said again:

" Don't get up yet, if you have not understood, I will reveal it to you. I will reveal what the eyes can't see. You only have to understand that the monster is not that humble man but those arrogant ones that discriminate.

You had to meditate for a long time, since you could not understand what you saw because you did not see with the heart and it is there because the heart of man is the mansion of good or evil, and it gives light or darkness.

And in the same way that there are hearts of love and peace, there are others filled with evilness.

Monsters exist and many times, they smile at you, because they need something from you.

Don't judge by the appearance, rather see the actions and you will have revelations.

Almost 15 years passed from your first question and this time has been necessary, not because the revelation was not in front of you, but because, you lacked maturity in order to understand, now you can see because you have been purified and you have changed from  discriminating to discerning and being able to interpret the difference between good and evil.

The city that you saw, can be any city of the world and those persons, can be any person. Well, follow the practice of understanding that in the heart is found the true intention, what is outside changes, and is passing, of course, we all enjoy beauty, but it is not there where truth, necessarily, is found.

You have to see with your own heart, you have to experience beyond your senses, then, you will not be upset by the exterior image and you will achieve understanding in your heart.

That city that you saw is the same as many others, where some are important and have achieved a lot of success but unfortunately, they not always identify themselves, since they have become their clothes, money, houses and positions; they live in an unreal world.

And somebody who is cold, or hungry or thirsty may be next to them, but since they are full, they will not understand and is not because of their wealth but because they are full of vanity and vanity is the only monster of humanity.
