The truth must be preached to all or only to a chosen few?
Mirdad reveals the secret of his disappearance on the eve of the vine and speaks of false authority
Naronda: long after the party, when it could only memory in the minds of the seven, they found themselves gathered around the Master at the Eagle's Nest. The Master was silent, and fellow recounted the events of that memorable day. Some marveled at the burst of enthusiasm with which the crowd received the Master's words. Others said the strange behavior and incomoreensível Shamadam, when hundreds of documents from unredeemed debts were taken from the treasury of the Ark and publicly destroyed and hundreds of jugs and barrels of wine, wineries and removed the data for free, and many valuable gifts returned to their donors, because he did not object, dw somehow, as we expected it to, but ovservava everything still and silent as tears ran down her face.
Bennoon noted that while the crowd aclamasse hoarse, it was not because of the words of the Master, but due to debts canceled and returned to the present.
He even gently criticized the Master, for wasting your breath with the crowd, who sought no higher pleasure than to eat, drink and be merry. The truth, he said, should not be preached indiscriminately to all but a chosen few.
Then spake the Master and said:
Midas: Your breath loose in the wind certainly find asylum in some heart. Seek not to know to whom the heart belongs. Take heed only that the breath is pure.
Your word and certainly seek to find some ear. Do not ask who the ear. Take heed only that the word is a legitimate messenger of freedom.
Your silent thought certainly move some tongue to speak. Do not ask who is the tongue. See; Only if the thought is full of loving understanding.
Do not think that some effort may be wasted. Some seeds are buried for many years, but quickly sprout, when stimulated by the breath of the first favorable season.
The seed of Truth is in all men and in all things. Your task is not to sow the Truth, but preparing the favorable season for the seed to sprout.
All things are possible in eternity. Do not you disappoint him, so the release of anyone, but preach the message of liberty to all with the same faith and zeal - to not looking and longing for her, for he who does not yearn, shall surely yearning, and they now have wings one day extend their sun and will fly to inaccessible deserts of the sky.
Micaster: Put it in the sad fact that even today, even though we have repeatedly asked him, the Master is not already revealed to us the secret of his mysterious disappearance on the eve of the vine. We will not be worthy of your trust?
Mirdad: Whoever deserves my love certainly deserves my trust. Is confidence more than Love, Micaster? Not'm giving you incessantly from my heart?
If you have not spoken of this unpleasant circumstance, it was because I was giving it time to Shamadam arrependessse. It was he who, with the aid of two strangers, took me forcibly out of the Eyrie and threw me in the Black Hole. Unhappy Shamadam! Could ever dream that the Black Chasm receive Mirdad with hands of silk and provide you with magical stairs so he returned to the peak.
Naronda: When we heard this, we all take a shock and were appalled. No one dared ask the Master had left unscathed as what everyone seemed certain destruction. We were silent for some time.
Himbal: Why Shamadam pursuing our Master, while our Master Shamadam?
Mirdad: Not to me that Shamadam dogs. Shamadam Shamadam dogs.
Give the blind a semblance of authority, and they uproot the eyes of all who see, even the eyes of those who worked hard to make them see.
Dai slave for one day, the power to make his will, and he will transform the world into a world of slaves. The first whom he flagelará and algemará will be those who have worked tirelessly to free him.
Any authority in this world is false. So she tine spurs, and brandishes a sword and riding their steeds, with gaudy glittering pomp and ceremonies, so that nobody can realize the falsity that is in your heart. His tottering throne supported on this guns and spears. His soul, full of vanity, is adorned with charms that inspire fear and emblems of necromancy, so prying eyes do not discover their misery.
This authority, besides being blind, is to curse the man who craves exercise it because it tries to keep at all costs, even the dreadful cost of destroying the man himself, who accept his authority as well as the oppose it.
Due to his greed for authority, men are constantly caring. Those in authority are constantly struggling to keep her. Those who have not are constantly fighting to remove it from the hands of those who exercise it. Meanwhile, the man, bandaged God is trampled by the feet and the hooves of horses and abandoned on the battlefield, forgotten, without assistance, and without whom it is apiede.
So fierce is the fight and so crazed by blood are struggling, no one stops to lift the mask spurious bride and expose the sight of all its monstrous ugliness.
Believe me, brethren, that no authority worth a snap unless the Holy of Understanding, which is priceless. To reach it, no sacrifice is excessive. Once achieved, will remain with you until the end of time and will give your words more power than the one that they can enjoy all the armies in the world and bless your actions with greater benefit than all the authorities together could dream of bringing the world.
This is because understanding your own shield, his powerful weapon is love. No dogs or bullies, but falls like dew gently sm arid human heart, both for those who reject His blessings, and for that to quench it, because, conscious of his inner strength, never resorts to external force and not afraid of being arrested, do not use intimidation as a weapon to try to impose upon any human being.
The world's poor - ah, penniless - Comprehension. And why try to hide their poverty through the veil of false authority, and the false authority makes offensive and defensive alliance with the false power, putting up both commanding fear. And fear destroys both.
There has always been the custom of the weak ally themselves to protect their weakness? Thus the authorities of this world and the brute force work hand in hand, under the lash of fear, daily paying your tax to ignorance in wars in blood and tears. And ignorance smiles benignly at all this and say, "Okay!"
"Very well!" Shamadam told Shamadam to shoot Mirdad the abyss. Little did Shamadam, however, that having me thrown into the Abyss, had shot himself, and not me. This is because the gap can not retain Mirdad, while Shamadam have to fight with all the strength and long in order to climb their dark and slippery slopes.
The authority of this world is like a rattle. Let those who are babes in Understanding fun with it, but ye have need not impose you to any man. What is imposed by force, sooner or later will be overthrown by force.
Seek not authority over the lives of men; over it, is just Omniwill lady. Not Seek authority over the property of men, since men are chained to their possessions, both their lives, and so suspicious of those who interfere with their current and they hate us. However, seek a path to the hearts of men through the Love and Understanding ed, once installed there, the better you will be able to work to free them from their chains.
