First of all my warmest greetings to the Holos & Lotus community, to my readers and followers and the members of the #Hive community who have the pleasure to read me.

Today I want to tell you about a pleasant experience that happened to me today. And what does it have to do with a piece of advice I gave to a friend a few weeks ago and how that advice helped her change her reality, according to her, she told me.

A few weeks ago, I got myself at the center, with a friend who had had a problem at work, seeing her so upset and with the great level of frustration she had, I invited her to have a coffee and sat down to listen to her.

The first thing I realized, is the need she had to be heard, in fact she thanked me after the meeting, not only for having listened to her, but for not having touched the cell phone while we were talking. In my case, which I think is very particular because of what several people have told me, I do not touch the phone, when I am in a meeting or sharing with a group of people, I only do it if they call me, but never neglecting a person who is with me because of the blessed phone.

Returning to the topic, my friend told me her problem and also told me how she felt at that moment, and when she talked to me, she expressed anger, frustration, anger and hatred, she even cursed and wished a thousand ills to the people with whom she had had the problem.

After she let off steam, I was silent for a moment, waiting to see if she would say anything else, however, she asked me for my opinion of everything she had said to me and everything she felt, and at that moment, she came back with her angry, frustrated and angry comments.

Finally, when I had the opportunity to speak, I started my conversation in a very subtle way, more knowing that if I didn't choose the right words, she would very possibly take what I said wrong or misrepresent it. Because in her annoyance and in her way of seeing life, she felt that she should be given the reason for what she expressed.

Anyway, we talked about his problem at work and I let him know what I thought knowing only one side of the story. And then I brought her to the conversation I was interested in. My friend is a lovely and very intelligent woman, but she always has problems, because she always considers herself superior to others and always considers herself the owner of reason and to finish, she always ends, sending to the universe and the world, thoughts of hatred, rage, frustration and anger.

I talked to her about this, and I told her something that everyone knows, but apparently no one practices, which is that everything you think and everything you say, generates an energy and what you say and do today, can come back to you tomorrow, and I proved it to her with her own experience. I told him, in every place and in every job you have problems with some person and your reaction is so strong that you read a lot of people about you.

She told me that she could not avoid these feelings and that she was aware that in these situations anger consumed her and she let herself be carried away by her emotions. After a while, he said to me, ‘Well, my dear priest, give me the solution to the problems.’ She usually calls me a priest, because I was in the seminary for several years.

What I told him was the following. —- Your evil is that of all of us, you let yourself be carried away by the ego and you respond to the passions, you act automatically and you always run over others, because you always want to be the first, the best, the one who rules, the one who has the power. That happens to all of us, and that is the ego, and the most important thing for us is to learn to master the ego and avoid it dominating us.

As for problems, we are always going to have problems and arguments, we are human beings and gregarious beings, and in a diverse world, there are diverse positions and different ways of thinking, so there will always be some discussion process or some annoyance. That we must have it clear, and even clearer we must take into account, that although the annoyance, the problem and the anger are there and we cannot do anything to avoid it, what we can do, is to control how we react to the problem or the situation that presents itself to us and to what we think and desire, after that problem or situation happens.

As for the fact that you can't control your thoughts and your bad desires when you get upset, I'll give you a trick that the superior of the Philosophy House taught us at the Seminary, and that's the use of prayer. You know that when one gets upset, the mind goes elsewhere and begins to think any number of barbarities and that happens, since our mind is dominated by the ego. So, we must find a way to control our thoughts, so that we are not thinking about negative things.

Prayer, which is prayer, (Eye, it is different from prayer, in form, application and methods) serves us as a kind of mantra, to control thoughts. And you will see that when you try to do it, in your head, while you start the prayer, a thousand thoughts of anger, hatred and a thousand negative things will come to you, and when this happens to you, keep on praying and let that thought pass, don't worry about knowing where I came from or where it's going, just keep on praying, while you do your activities and so you can improve your reality and your relationship with others, because it's an excellent tool. —

The truth is that today I got my friend, after several weeks, and she really was very beautiful and radiant, and unlike so many other times, she was full of joy, she thanked me and ended up buying me a coffee. He told me that he had changed a lot and that now he understood the reason why I enjoyed walking so much, he told me that he had finally seen what I call, the divine architecture that is reflected in trees and other natural creations.

And she ended up telling me, as I teach her cousin and one of her friends, how to use the prayer to control the ego and not get carried away by the passions. The truth is that this meeting made me very happy and that's why I dared to write this story.

To finish, I must say, that we must become aware of the force and energy generated by our words and thoughts, many people still think that this is not a reality, however, when we talk and read about creation, about the ruah, and about spirituality, we are talking about the power of the word and thought.

That is why it is so important to take care of what comes out of us, as the Master Jesus says well in the Gospels.

Thank you very much for reading me.
