Above all love
A hidden inheritance

of Francesco Arista and Antonella Molica

Argument

our love

→ Life beyond the material world is fullness of good, quite different from the life of this world.

→ The temporariness, fragility, pain and contradiction of being in the world are unacceptable to the divine nature of man.
→ The knowledge of the contrast between my omnipotent and loving nature, and the enormous malignancy of the cosmos, shows you what I have given you from the beginning, my nature.
→ The enormous difficulty that man has to solve is appropriate to his divine potential.
→ The contrast between you and the world, the pain that the world imposes on you, is the stimulus to go beyond.
→ If I, God, love you and allow you to face such a difficulty, my correctness implies that you are immense, divine, similar to me.
→ Your experience of my opposite offers you the possibility to choose me with a love similar to mine, because you are similar to me, divine.

→ The development of the path requires balance and harmony.

→ Perseverance in illusion and adherence to a false vision of oneself are the worst obstacles to the path.

→ The enormous difficulty that man has to solve is appropriate to his divine potential.

→ What may now seem very difficult has a very good reason to realize itself fully, our unlimited nature.

→ I desire you as equals, face to face, I do not want you as servants.

→ If you love me, you can give me the center of your attention, put me first in you and leave material things in the background.

→ This world proclaims and makes us experience the temporariness and precariousness of everything, in the false perspective of the final victory of pure nothingness, of total annihilation.

→ In being with me, aware of me, in choosing eternity, you are, you realize what you are, what you exist for.

→ Going deeper into the examination of the causes, the painful imbalances originate in the structure of the world and the body, therefore in the devil or in God.

→ The most important, most intense thought is love for its object.

→ If you neglect me you live an illusion, you are prey to deception.
→ Unhooked from me you are close to nothing, you run the risk of being absorbed by nothing.
→ I have your sense, what the world tries to make you lose.
→ Without me everything in the world deceives you.

→ The pursuit of happiness, of the fullness of being in the world, any practice aimed at solving the world's problem is illusory.

→ The truth is hiding to a superficial way of knowing.
