Our Glory on the Straight and narrow

🎧 Listen to the original voice message from La Jardinera

My dear Seeds,

Today we are going to share a very simple message, very very simple, but it also has certain things for us that we have to apply.

Once there was a very important school of medicine in the world, the most important doctors were Arabs... Arabs were... especially there were some very important schools in Ethiopia, the school of Alexandria which you know was one of the most important, the Greeks were philosophy and other theories.

But above all, medicine came from the Persians and the Arabs.

Although the Persians are Arabs, but they are different, each country being Arab, they have a different culture and a different way of life and a very rich, different history.

Babylon was between Persia and the Turks, Babylon, the great Babylon, the king of kings with Ethiopia. Well, let's see.

In that medical school it was full of scholars, and the great professor of medicine had his students and gave his course in medicine.

He called one of the students and said - you, tell me now tell me, how many kidneys do we have, how many kidneys do we have?

And the student looked at him, at the professor and said: Four.

The professor (who is superior to a professor of medicine) said, "How can you tell me that we have four kidneys? Then the student turned around and said to the assistant, to the secretary

secretary, bring a handful of alfalfa, a handful of grass, an alpaca of grass for the professor, the professor can eat it. And bring me a cup of coffee.

And the secretary went and brought the coffee and the grass for the professor to eat.

The professor continued, he was silent, and he said: please throw this student out, he is no longer part of the medical school. And they threw him out.

Once the courses were over, the student was in the corridor of that great school. When the professor passed by, the student stopped in front of him and said: "What, have you eaten all the grass? Then the doctor said to him: "You know that you are no longer part of this school and answer me: how many kidneys do we have?

And he said to him: I have to repeat it again: four.

If you had spoken and asked me: How many kidneys do you have? I would have said two, but you said in the plural, how many kidneys do we have? And since you said it in the plural, I answered two of yours and two of mine, we had four.

The teacher looked at him, fell down and left, while the student laughed.

And that's where we have to teach lessons, that many times in life we think we have prestige, that we are great doctors, that we are great characters because we are handsome, tall, we have women at our feet, or because we have great sophrologists, and we know people and they respect us and we have students, we have great knowledge, we have many philosophies, many therapies.

How many times there have even been great students who, once they have graduated, have said: I have already worked in ten companies! And they have even said: I am a coach! I am a director of the UN, when she will never be a coach, nor a director, she will be a simple employee.

How many times a person has been called: you are a great teacher and I respect you as such. And then the ego swells and when you see how it is, then there is the sheepskin, but beware of an overgrown ego, overgrown pride, that's why this story teaches us that in life it is better to be more understanding and it takes more understanding than sometimes wisdom. It is better to err on the side of understanding than to put ourselves above the teachers.

Sometimes we mistake a circus, and when we realise that we are in the middle of the circus, we look like a clown, but when we look around we see that people are applauding us, but what are they applauding? The laughter and the ridicule we make, because that is the circus, to make laughter, and to amuse others and we don't realise that there are simple, simple and humble people, who don't put on laurels, who turn around and leave.

Learn this lesson, that no matter how much prestige you have, know where you come from, know that your father has worked in the mine and has been a farmer, and your mother has not even been to school. To think that your father is an Arab and your mother comes from the Indians, not to mention the rest, that the surnames are not even surnames and where do they come from?

Let us look at our roots and see that we are a tree, but that, if the roots are not well planted, the top of that tree will not be able to see God, but its neck will fall off and it will not be able to contemplate beauty.

The world is not made of one little tree, no, the world is made of many trees and each one has a function. Here we have pear trees, apple trees, cherries, we have peaches, apricots, grapes, we have many, and each one is different, we have pines, we have firs, we have medlars, we have many, and I am still forgetting, imagine!

We with our roots that are so powerful, we can stand and our soul belongs to God, what strength we have, Great, Great, Great, Great!

Always remember who you are, where you come from, it matters little because those empires that I have mentioned to you no longer exist, the land is there, but the empires are not, what good were their conquests and titles, to leave us a history, with blood and glory.

And ours?

Ours has to be with glory, but towards that straight path, that path of Light that we carry within us and that will lead us back to the Light.

With all my love,

La Jardinera
