Valerio Albisetti - Il viaggio della Vita

We have to reduce to a minimum our level of neurosis, because where our ego ends, there God begins. The separation from our narcissistic and omnipotent demands is what gets us closer to God. If then we want to enter into contact with God, with the Essence that has no form, we must disrobe ourselves of all of our visible forms, of our exterior images, and achieve poverty of spirit. Only like this do we not die with physical death. The person who wants to enter into contact...

I write after some days of seclusion in which I prayed and meditated. Interior peace is obtained with the purification of the senses, because these are what agitate us and hinder self-awareness. We cannot communicate with God if we have not purified our communication with ourselves. We have to be aware in imagining God because it can be fruit of our projection.

The intuitive dimension produces a powerful state of spiritual awareness. Deep spiritual meditation increases the ability to...

For this reason, we—who are alone even if we have overcome the problems of survival—only feel a deep fear...

We would all like to flee from sickness and death, but unfortunately we cannot. The only intelligent possibility is to play the response on a spiritual level. In fact, sickness interrogates us. It poses new questions that we never felt before. Sickness has the objective of destroying our omnipotent illusions, but it always creates a new freedom. The person on a journey of spiritual awareness knows that sickness and death are part of human nature. In a superficial vision...

From the moment you choose to walk the journey toward psychospiritual awareness, you will be persecuted by those who are not aware, those who base their whole lives on superficiality and who do not want you to become profound. These people base their entire lives and do their business on the unawareness of others. They can prosper because they obey a small god, not God. The prefer darkness to light. They can survive only through the interior filth of whom they encounter....
