THE PRESENT

From a long meditation process the man came out. Many springs had already passed, in fact, so many, that he had forgotten the scent and the aroma of the flowers. He was a person that had been searching for the meaning of life, that had abandoned all tastes and pleasures, since he felt that he had to give priority to more fundamental aspects, at least, he thought that way. After ending the meditation, he was thinking that it was necessary to increase the meditation, that maybe he had lost too much time and that he would have to make a better effort. Therefore, he went in search of an old teacher, that is to say, perhaps a little older that himself. After a pilgrimage, he found the longed for master and he told him about his efforts, sacrifices and austerities and the teacher said to him: "Ah, that is the reason that you have not been seen anymore,
that you have also lost the smile and the youth. You have been, he said clearly, looking for in the wrong places, you have locked up your spirit and you have not allowed it to travel neither by the world nor by your life. Nobody has been able to know you and nobody knows you, you did not care for an animal, you did not water a plant, you did not kiss the forehead of a child, you did not have dreams with the loved person. you did not watch over the nights to see the light of a new day, you did not know how the birds fly and nest and besides all that and much more, you were thinking that you were looking for truth? Does the flower try to wither or do you think that  the children should be born pale, ill, without energy, and from youth one should run away, frightened? Why have you denied life, why have you thought that by hurting you, you punished some demon and you did not realize that everything you did was to bleed slowly? Please, now that you have left your own captivity, do not carry to extremes your confusion.
Be as the light of the sun that does not hide or like the brilliant green of the leaves reflecting life's energy. Do not accuse yourself, please, neither reject the favor of your senses, learn and understand that your heart has been born to love and be loved, cultivate the friendship and put faith in the work of your hands, do not cut your walking by life, do not die without having lived, enjoy with sincerity the joy of the present. If there is something mistaken in man is the fact that he refuses to live. Why do you look beyond yourself? What you must do is to accept and to know yourself. The Love that has created and maintains all  life, has not made it a crime or punishment.
Do not reject the existence and make  now of your meditation not a cold tomb, but a purpose to reach dignity, happiness by sharing day by day, the joy that is the natural sense of the soul."
And that man, who had meditated without really understanding, then, he  just had a glimpse of the most perfect and absolute reality: The Present.
