cosimo 7

This deep part of him... 

did not prevent him from being a boy who enjoyed himself, going out with his friends, being everyone's wise advisor, as well as he liked girls, his heart beating especially for Michela. 

Every now and then, he would repeat to me: 'Mom, I'm not as holy as my sisters.' 

I looked at him smiling and asked: 'Why are your sisters holy?' 

And he: 'Yes mom, they were so good.' 

I repeated to him: 'Let God decide whether your sisters are holy.' 

And he smiled. 

He talked to me about his funeral as a big party... 

and then concluded: 'But for/from? me, there won't be many people and many priests.' 

Instead, God rewarded his desire for a party, that day were the ashes, but the parish priest rang the bells on his arrival, as he had always wanted, and there were many people and many teenagers. 

When the procession of the priests passed by... 

I said to myself: 'You'll see, Cosimo, there will be some for you too.'

So I counted, there were seven, he had more than his sisters, and I imagined him so happy with that party. It was the feast of all the feasts he had organized. 

The parish priest began his homily by looking at the assembly, saying: 'Cosimo, this is your first miracle, I have never seen so many boys and girls in this church.' 

Everyone was there, at his party. 

I conclude this writing by quoting Cosimo's words written in his diary: 

'The key to Heaven is Forgiveness.'

//

I have come, to answer your prayers.

For creation has been groaning and travailing for the manifestions of those who once were orphans, but now have become the sons and daughters of the King.

When My Word is respected and honored, creation rejoice!

Not because the children of God are dominating.

Creation rejoice, because the sons and daughters, t h e y   l o v e .

T h e y   s e r v e  and  r e s p e c t , in such a way that all the lies of the enemy...

about who I am can now no longer be believed.

I am the Ultimate Leader, Word of God, King of Kings... 

and Lord of Lords over South Africa.

And I declare upon My Mountain...

There shall be deliverance [uitspraak,bevrijding].

There shall be holiness.

And there shall be the House of Jolcop/Jacob?

That shall possess their possessions.

witte paters 1

De Sociëteit van Missionarissen van Afrika...

is een ´gemeenschap van apostolisch leven´... 

gesticht in 1868 door Charles kardinaal Lavigerie (+1892), aartsbisschop van Algiers in Algerije. Een jaar later, in 1869, stichtte hij ook de congregatie van de Zusters Missionarissen van Onze Lieve Vrouw van Afrika (Witte Zusters).

De naam ´Witte Paters´... 

komt van de witte, Arabische klederdracht die de missionarissen dragen... 

samen met een rozenkrans rond de hals. 

Lavigerie stond erop... 

dat Witte Paters zich de taal en de gewoontes van de Afrikanen zouden eigen maken en respect zouden tonen voor hun cultuur en geloofsovertuiging. 

Zijn voornaamste instructies om de geloofsverkondiging bij de Afrikaanse bevolking succesvol te kunnen aanpakken waren: ´U spreekt hun taal – u eet zoals zij – u kleedt zich zoals zij´. 

De paters droegen derhalve de kandora (cf.Saoedi-Arabische mannen: djellaba met lange mouwen), de burnous (cape) en de chéchia (cf. Marokkaanse fez). Op de kandora droegen de witte paters een rozenkrans als religieus onderscheidingsteken.

transfiguratie 1

From the beginning of the manifestation of life, My children, 

in the purest and most profound Thought of God, 

when He conceived the Project of this humanity, 

the existence of the original peoples was contemplated. 

Peoples thus called... 

not only because they gave rise to the civilizations of this world... 

but because, from the origin of life, they were thought by God... 

to maintain the union between Heaven and Earth... 

the union between all the Kingdoms of Nature... 

the union between the surface planet and the subtle worlds.

The original peoples are those, beloved children... 

thought by God to be the Gatekeepers [poortwachters] of the sublime worlds... 

of the superior realities...

where the sacred dwells... 

where beings are invited to return... 

to their Origin in the Celestial Sources.

-

It is in this way... 

that from the beginning of humanity...

and until the present day...

the Divine Hierarchy drives/gives impulses to the original peoples...

to rediscover their purity and return to the Purpose... 

that God manifested for their lives, in the beginning.

-

By creating this planet and each being on this Earth, bearer of a particle of the divine essence, your Heavenly Father created not only the Kingdoms, the elements and man, fruit of the clay consecrated by His Divine Breath. 

God also created subtle realities...

invisible to human eyes who do not sincerely seek the sacred in their lives.

These subtle worlds keep/preserve the Divine Purpose within the planet. 

They live in communion with all types of life. 

In them the dimensions unite. 

And there is no danger, because those who enter there do live pure of heart and spirit... 

and only aspire to fulfill the Divine Will and Purpose.

Those who enter these subtle worlds, My children... 

have already been stripped of their personal desires... 

and their human condition of impurity and degeneration. 

In this way, their hearts find the way to express purity and unity with the Divine.

-

These subtle worlds are protected by nature... 

for/because of their strength, beauty and harmony. 

And in the invisible of lakes, seas, deserts and mountains, they are hidden... 

not only to sustain the planet... 

but so that, through the greatness of nature's expression, those who arrive there... 

can feel that something else lives there... 

that a sacred mystery is hidden there... 

and it is as if Heaven were much closer there to men... 

and God could express Himself.

-

Throughout the ages and the history of humanity... 

many people [volkeren] have been able, with everything they are, to enter these subtle worlds... 

because while humanity in other parts of the Earth lost its purpose... 

those peoples found it, and they went deeper into it... 

not only through science and wisdom... 

but above all through love for the sacred, the divine... 

and through respect for life and for nature.

These were the keys... 

that made these peoples experience the Science of Transfiguration. 

And just as My Son once revealed it to you, one day, on Mount Tabor...

they too were able to recognize their true face... 

illuminate cells and atoms...

and not only make the heart and consciousness vibrate at another higher level... 

but also their most material part. 

That what today seems so dense...

in ancient times rose and transfigured.

-

Through the simplicity of the heart...

the native peoples discovered that the same solar essence... 

which they contemplated and adored in the infinite sky... 

dwelt within them. 

-

And in this way... 

they lived a deep union with God... 

as well as they could understand Him.

-

By illuminating their cells and atoms... 

by allowing themselves to be permeated by the light of their souls...

these peoples reached the same vibration of the subtle worlds... 

and could thus not only see them... 

but enter them and participate in them... 

as representatives of humanity.

Utah Great Gallery Rock Art

Thus they became Guardians and Gatekeepers of these subtle dimensions... 

which until today are hidden on the planet. 

Some of these peoples left traces of their history and life on the surface... 

and then disappeared. 

But others, My children, were never known by humanity.

-

Today your Divine Mother arrives at this sacred place for Heaven and Earth...

to reveal a story to you and, more than that, to drive your souls...

to the search for purity and the sacred.

The time has come to unravel the mysteries hidden in the history of humanity, not only to abandon ignorance, but above all, My children, to embrace purity. 

And so that, in the time that will come, when the Earth will be raised in its vibration and led to a new time, to a new reality, your hearts and your spirits will be ready, not only to see, but to participate in this sublime life.

-

Seek the purity of your hearts! 

Seek union with life and with nature! 

And as I reveal many mysteries to you today... 

in your hearts other truths will also be revealed to you.

I bless you and thank you for coming this far... 

and for opening your hearts to the revelations... 

that God brings you at this time.

Your Mother, Mary, 

Rose of Peace

In the same way... 

that the enemy tries to weaken the different religions in the Middle East, and mixes economic interests and power with the religious conflicts, so that humanity no longer wants to reconnect to God... the enemy also weakens the role of the indigenous consciousness in the world, placing the original peoples in the face of the so-called 'technologies'.

The adversary of God tries to imprint in the human consciousness the idea that the indigenous peoples are primitive, and that being so, they delay the evolution of the planet in general. Be attentive, because this is a destructive thought that diverts you from the Plans of God!

As I have already told you previously... 

the original peoples who remained faithful to the pure principle of their existence are guardians of fundamental attributes of spirit for the development of humanity.

The indigenous move and act based on intuition, wisdom, on the feeling of the heart, on the union with nature, on reverence for the sacred. Imagine the human being without these spiritual attributes! They would lose their life, their essence, their bond with God.

May the mission in Chaco not only be to render a service, but that you also allow yourselves to experience a mutual exchange: 

- protect, support, and assist those 

- that keep you spiritually united with the Wisdom of God.

These two missions, both to the Middle East and to Chaco, must renew the principles of faith, fraternity and unity in the human heart. Every service, every prayer and every liberation must have that purpose, because with faith, fraternity and unity, the heart will be able to know love one day.

Be in a posture of great humility, because both in one mission as well as the other, in spite of having many resources to help, if you are in a posture of learning, besides helping in great processes of spiritual liberation, you will bring many codes of maturation and wisdom in your consciousnesses.

Humility is the key to service. One who serves with the intention of being a bridge between God and humanity, transcending their expectations and aspirations, will accomplish the Purpose of the Lord, not only for their goal of service, but also for their own transformation and the transformation of the human consciousness as a collective.

I love you, and in omnipresence, I accompany both missions as well as all the prayerful beings that support them. May everything be for the fulfillment of the Plans of God.

May peace and love be established in the world.

bijen 1

Jose Trigueirinho Netto

Bees came to earth called by the Earth's nature.

The bees have come here to bring Earth a form of life that is not of this planet.

Paulo Antonio Machado

Bees are singular beings on this Earth.

25.000 species of bees are the estimate here on the surface, of which about 4.000-5.000 are in Brazil. And of these, about 300 species are social, those who live in a community as the queen, worker etc. that is very little. We are talking specifically about bees, those with stingers [angels]. Not the little bees that everyone sees, the Jatal and the Arapua types and the rest. These other small bees, they have a role too, they all came more or less together. 

But when the time arrived, Apis came down here - the technical name is Apis [honingbij]. The Apis type include only seven species. And they arrived, and we could study them. And they arrived, and we could study them. Among other with handbooks that came, writings, the sacred texts etc.,Aad with the handbook of nature. 

And the ancients knew this, they recorded this. The Egyptians knew, other civilizations knew. The Mayas here knew, they had contact with the bees, these indigenous varieties, which we call indigenous, which have no sting.

-

When I first arrived here in Figueira, 1990-1991, there was a poster, and on that poster there was a spot written: Apiary [bijenstal]. Then we asked what it was, and such...

There was a prayer group in Belo Horizonte that had existed for many years, and this group was in charge, through Trigueirinho, to build an Apiary, at that time while Figueira was still a donated farm, and before the constructions, Trigueirinho had requested the hives, because he knew that a work, a spiritual work without the bees cannot be sustained. 

And from then on, it was the continuity. I have been improving, it is a lengthy work, it has been almost thirty years.

-

Maria Rita Mendes

Well, I went to a Fine Arts College, and there I studied the geometry of the churches, the temples, and there was the first time I had seen that hexagon, and then I associated it with the comb of a hive [bijenraten]. And that was giving me an inner interest, but it was something that remained there, asleep.

And I met Trigueirinho, it was 1988. In 1989, I came for the first time to Figueira. Then I met the Apiary. I took a course at USP [University of São Paulo] in Biology, and increasingly it began taking me, I was taken by it all, and till today, more than thirty years, I am here. Each time I come here, I return home.

orde -1

I felt all invested by the Supreme Volition...

that, drawing me into Its immense light, made me see the order of Creation: how each thing remained at the place assigned by its Creator. My mind wandered and was enraptured at seeing the order, the harmony, the magnificence, the beauty of the whole Creation. And my sweet Jesus, who was with me, told me: 

-

¨My daughter...

everything that came out of Our creative hands, each created thing, was assigned its place and its distinct office, and all of them remain at their place, magnifying with incessant praises that Eternal Fiat that dominates them, preserves them, and gives them new life. So, their preserving themselves ever beautiful, whole and new, is the motion of the Supreme Fiat dominating in them.

Man also was assigned his place:

his office of sovereign over all created things.

With the difference that, while all other things created by Us remained just as God had created them—without ever changing, neither increasing nor decreasing—My Will, giving man supremacy over all the works of Our hands, and wanting to show off even more with him in love, gave him the office to grow continuously in beauty, in sanctity, in wisdom, in richness, to the point of raising him to the Likeness of his Creator.

Always provided, however...

that he would let himself be dominated and guided, to give the Supreme Fiat free field in order to form Its Divine Life in him, so as to be able to form this continuous growth of goods and of beauty, with happiness without end. 

In fact, without My Will dominating, there can be neither growth nor beauty, nor happiness, nor order, nor harmony. Since My Will is origin, master and beginning of the whole work of Creation, wherever It reigns, It has the virtue of preserving Its work beautiful, just as It issued it. 

But where It does not exist, the communication of Its vital humors in order to preserve the work that came out of Our hands, is missing. Do you see then, what great evil it was for man to withdraw from My Will?

-

So, all things, even the smallest ones, have their place. 

It can be said that they are in their home, secure, and no one can touch them. They possess abundance of goods, because that Will that flows in them possesses the source of all goods. They are all in the order, the harmony, and the peace of all. 

-

On the other hand, by withdrawing from Our Will, man lost his place. 

He remained without Our home, exposed to dangers. All can touch him to harm him. The very elements are superior to him - because they possess a Supreme Will, while he possesses a degraded human will, that can give him nothing but miseries, weaknesses and passions. 

And because he lost his origin, his place... 

he remained without order, disharmonized from all...

and he enjoys no peace...

not even within himself.¨

[17.9.1926]

Stichting Oeuvre Jan van der Vossen...

is in 1998 opgericht ter nagedachtenis aan de kunstenaar Jan van der Vossen (1948-1998). Het woord Oeuvre in de naam van de stichting refereert aan impresariaat Oeuvre van acteur en regisseur Jaap Wieringa (1945-2001), de partner van Jan van der Vossen.

Jan van der Vossen heeft zich jarenlang ingespannen voor zowel de kunst- als de theaterwereld. Naast zijn vrije werk als beeldend kunstenaar, verzorgde hij prachtige veelal inventieve en gelaagde scenografie voor theater- en poppentheatervoorstellingen.

Daarnaast maakte hij verschillende portretten van bekende Nederlandse acteurs en actrices, als Willem Nijholt en Kitty Courbois. De portretten zijn te zien in de Stadsschouwburg Amsterdam.

In navolging...

van deze veelzijdige kunstenaar en zijn partner Jaap Wieringa...

heeft de Stichting Oeuvre Jan van der Vossen tot doel om de link tussen de beeldende kunst en theater levend te houden. In 2005 is daarom een portretprijs voor de winnaars van de Louis d’Or en Theo d’Or in het leven geroepen.

Het portretteren van deze onderscheiden toneelspelers vormt een bijzondere synergie tussen de kunst- en theaterwereld, waarmee de stichting een traditie heeft willen creëren.

Inmiddels is een omvangrijke collectie...

van gevarieerde portretten ontstaan...

die permanent te zien zijn in de wandelgangen van de Stadsschouwburg Amsterdam.

Acteurs en actrices die de prijs meer dan één keer winnen en reeds zijn geportretteerd worden niet opnieuw geportretteerd. Pierre Bokma, die de Louis d’Or in 1994 en 2013 in ontvangst mocht nemen, had geen behoefte aan een portret.

Bestuur van de Stichting Oeuvre Jan van der Vossen:

Kees Hulst (voorzitter)

Erik Hermida (secretaris)

What a sad state of affairs for the Muslims.

Keeping the calendar, yes, it looks like a small thing.

But in reality, it is a big thing.

Because the Muslims, we don’t just have a separate identity. We have a Divine Identity. The Muslims have always had a separate, Divine identity. In every place that Islam went, even if the Muslims were few in number, they kept their own Divine identity.

And by keeping that identity, they kept their honor and their heybat. You keep your own calendar. You keep your own food. You keep your own dress. You keep your way of praying. You keep your way of conducting your family affairs.

And when the Muslims acted like that...

people admired them and wanted to be like them.

O Believers !

Our New Year is coming !

The intelligent man must ask himself, ‘did I become better or worse?’

It is such a simple question. But it is the most difficult question to answer. Because to answer that question, a man must be sincere. Because to answer that question, the sincere man will realize, ‘just as I cannot look at my own face without a mirror, I must find a mirror to help me look at my faith.’

And those mirrors, they are the Friends of Allah. Don’t trust your own mirror. If we want to know how we did this year, we must go to a Friend of Allah and put our heart in front of his heart. Because the hearts of the Friends of Allah, their hearts are mirrors that have been polished and they are clean.

When we sit with them, we will see the reality of our state.

And by sitting with them, they will teach us...

the Way of cleaning our heart.


~Shaykh Lokman Effendi Hz~

eer-bied (1)

In Islam...

our calendar, the days, the months that we are passing through...

they have not been changed.

They have not been played with. They are the same days as when Allah (SWT) created the Heavens and the Earth. And in Islam, due to the wisdom of those who came before us, alhamdulillah, we have our own calendar. And this calendar, this Hijri calendar, it was decided upon by the Companions after the passing of the Holy Prophet (AS). All those who are shouting 'bidah, bidah, bidah!', they should keep silent. Because Hz. Umar al-Faruq (RA), the Guardian of the Sunnah, he is the one who instituted the Hijri calendar.

-

When Hz. Umar (RA) was the Khalifa...

the territory of Islam became huge. 

And there was so much communication happening, so many messages going back and forth, so many funds that had to be accounted for, that he said we need a standard calendar. And so, some of the people came and said, we should make a calendar like the Persians. Some said, we should make a calendar like the Bani Israil... 

Hz. Umar (RA) and the other high-level Sahabis, they agreed to make the calendar be based upon the Hijrah of the Holy Prophet (AS). The most significant event in the history of the Ummah, one of the most significant events in the history of the world. 

The day that the Holy Prophet (AS) entered into Madinah, the day that his mission became opened, the day that Allah (SWT) ended the period of oppression in Mecca, and opened the period of the spread of Islam. 

And Hz. Umar said... ‘We are going to have a lunar calendar, and we are not going to allow any playing with the days.’

-

Alhamdulillah, we are continuing with that calendar. 

All the way through the Glorious Ottoman Empire, less than 100 years ago, they were continuing that calendar. People were not calculating their days according to Roman kings and pagan idols. They were not saying January, February... They were saying the names of the Month as they had been said by Allah SWT. 

As they had been said by the Holy Prophet (AS), as they are in the Sight of Allah: Muharram, Safar, Rabiul Awwal, Rabiul Thani, Jamadial Awwal, Jamadial Thani, Rajab, Shaban, Ramazan, Shawwal, Zul Qaida, and Zul Hijj. Even the names of our months, they have heybat and they have honor.

-

But the Muslims of the Ahir Zaman [end times]... 

they left this heybat and this honor. 

The Muslims of the Ahir Zaman do not have any heybat or any honor left. And one of the things that they left behind was the calendar. They left behind their identity according to time. They left behind the days and the nights that are honored by Allah.
