“Nós estamos aqui buscando a verdade; estamos batendo na porta dela.
Mas, às vezes, quando a porta se abre, nos assustamos. Certa vez, uma
buscadora que dizia querer encontrar a verdade (e por isso era muito
dedicada às suas práticas espirituais diárias) um dia descobriu que o
marido a estava traindo. Então ela entrou em desespero e me disse:
‘quanto mais eu rezo, mais assombração me aparece! Eu estava buscando a
verdade do Ser e isso é o que eu
encontro?’ Existem graus de verdade, mas a verdade é uma só. E
comprometer-se com a verdade significa comprometer-se com todos os seus
aspectos. Então, ela que se achava tão desapegada, teve que entrar em
contato com o ciúme e a possessividade que ainda carregava.”
“Nosotros estamos aquí buscando la verdad; estamos golpeando su puerta.
Pero, a veces, cuando la puerta se abre, nos asustamos. Una vez, una
buscadora que decía que quería encontrar la verdad (y por eso era muy
dedicada a sus prácticas espirituales diarias) un día descubrió que su
marido la estaba engañando. Entonces entró en desesperación y me dijo:
‘¡cuánto más rezo, más fantasmas me aparecen! ¿Yo estaba buscando la
verdad del Ser y esto es lo que encuentro?’ Existen grados de verdad,
pero la verdad es una sola. Y comprometerse con la verdad significa
comprometerse con todos sus aspectos. Entonces, ella que se creía tan
desapegada, tuvo que entrar en contacto con los celos y la posesividad
que todavía cargaba.”
“We are here seeking for truth and knocking on truth’s door. However, sometimes when the door opens, we get frightened. Once there was a disciple of mine, who said she wanted to find truth and as suchwas very dedicated to her daily spiritual practice. One day she discovered that her husband was cheating on her. She fell into despair and said to me, ‘the more I pray, the darker the shadow becomes! I was searching for the truth of my being and this is what I find?’ There are degrees of truth but there is only one truth. To be committed with the truth means to be committed to be willing to see the truth in all of its aspects. So, even though she thought she was free from her attachments, she had to get in touch with the jealousy and possessiveness she still carried within.”
