Love, the only religion

What can I do, oh Muslims, as I don’t recognise myself? I am not a Christian, a Jew, a Magian, or a Muslim. I am not from the East, nor from the West, nor from the land, nor from the sea. I am not from the nature, nor from the rotating skies. I am not […]

The way to Life

The princes Pandavas, dethroned by their opponents, were found in exile. The youngest of the brothers went to find water. He got to a crystalline lake, but when he approached and bent to drink, he listened to a voice that said to him: -Stop! You will only be able to drink water from this lake […]

The Abortion Debate: a Polish symptom

On 22 October the Constitutional Court of Poland ruled that abortion on the grounds of foetal malformation was unconstitutional. I remember what happened; in 1993 and defying the Church, the State legalised abortion on four grounds: rape, incest, serious risk for the mother’s health and foetal malformation. It was a symptom of the new Poland, […]

A man simply

A friend from the Balearic Islands writes to me: “Another great witness of light has left us: Mgr. Arturo Lona, the bishop of the poor. I still remember him wearing his jeans, his white T-shirt and his wooden crucifix hanging from his neck with a little rope tied to it. I met him in a […]

A Litany of Remembrance

In the rising of the sun and in its going down, we remember them. In the blowing of the wind and in the chill of winter, we remember them. In the opening of buds and in the rebirth of spring, we remember them. In the blueness of the sky and in the warmth of summer, […]

You will live life,with the illusion […]

To Javier Pagola. In memoriam

I celebrate your life, Javier, now that you have gone, now that you have stayed never to go away, now that you have once again become fully one with the Source of Being, now that you LIVE. Sorrow weighs heavily upon us, of course, because the light of your eyes so full of clarity and […]

Samuel Paty, martyr

The fact that an 18-year-old man slit the throat of Samuel Paty, history teacher in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine in the outskirts of Paris, for showing his teenage students some caricatures of Mohammed is a failure for the human species, Homo sapiens. It is a failure for Europe and the entire so-called Western society and its civilization. More […]

What I believe in…

I believe in God-Silence, mysterious Presence…in you, in me, in us, in the immensity.It is only omnipotent in Love.It is the Love, it is the Life, and it is the Breath…I know Jesus of Nazareth,our light waiting for the day…He was born in Galilee from a very young woman.He rose to purge his religion from […]

The train, the subway, the rush

A few months ago, the French Government announced that, until at least 2037, it will not make a decision about extending the Paris-Hendaya High Speed line from Bordeaux (where it currently ends) to Hendaya. It is not clear –it has never been very clear- when it will ever make it to Hendaya, or even if […]
