might seem excessive concessions to secularism talk about style of life in relation to the angels, messengers of light but also have habits, needs and expectations inherent in their way of life. They have a system of thought, a peculiar taste and sensibility. This is what is called in German weltanschauung , or "world view". From there see things as angels? And how do they live? What, finally, their characteristics? Should be placed on a corner stone: the angels are not subject to physical laws because they are pure spiritual intelligences. It follows, for example, that in the world they live there is neither space nor time. Swedenborg states that "angels do not know what the weather, though all things are progressing with them as next in the world, with so many similarities that there is no difference, as in heaven, instead of days and years There are changes in the state. " The angels belong to eternity but that does not mean that they are static or unchanging. On the contrary, they, like souls, are subject to continuous and unlimited growth, which has since increased outpouring of love and joy that makes them partakers of the glory of God This condition is perhaps comparable to the state of the universe that the day of the big bang, the explosion occurred more than ten billion years ago , has never stopped expanding. That angels are immortal and eternal is a dogma of faith that Jesus himself said. Referring to the resurrected, Christ says that "even (they) may die because they are like angels" (Luke , 20.36). Corbin calls the angels "the mystery of the divine face that occurs in a variety theophanies. They are not only perpetual but versatile and eclectic. This is demonstrated by the fact which do not reject the possibility of incarnation, even if only by a narrow margin of time in order to achieve Why God's will before any other role, and above every other assignment, the beings of light are instruments of divine providence, and as such they operate. Of course they are limited compared to the Essence of God which is the issue over which the event. Kardec argues that "the particular designs of providence, they are hidden, but it reveals their secret, when he calls upon them, under certain circumstances, to proclaim to the people." If men were angels we would give them the dedication of the papal guards and versatility of the ablest among the ambassadors of the crown.
The angels have the properties of light are ultravelocissimi and shining. Despite not having any kind of physiological needs, they feed on light. The light is at least as essential to love. It is said that Goethe just before he died he requested that would open the second set of his room. Apparently his last words were "Mehr Licht!". One of the mottos angelic might just be "More light." The light attracts them just as it rejects the evil creatures. By their own admission, the Angels have a penchant for light, so very fond of the white candles lit and usually white and gold, of course, bright colors. But most of all love the sun, whose energy charging them and makes them more shining and bright. Usually wearing white robes and have wings gleaming white gold or a light that radiates unbearable to the human eye. Watch an angel who had the pleasure to show you how to hold the eye with the solar disk. The difference is that the angels, if they wish, "adjust" our retina so that it can support their view. Without the use of lenses or sunscreens. How Kardec wrote, "while we are forced to see only little by little, and to some extent, the things that are outside of us, and while the truth of the supernatural order as they appear in an enigma, and in a mirror, in the words of the Apostle Paul, "they see without difficulty what they want to know, and are in immediate relationship with the object of their thought. " A key feature of the celestial intelligences is that they belong to a dimension where nothing is impossible. They live in harmony with the law of unity of all things, which means "to want is power." May move from one world to another in a split second or split or be in a thousand. Even the way they communicate is quite unusual and extraordinary from the human point of view. Kardec always states that "the communication of God to the angels and angels do not take place between them, as among us, by means of articulate sounds, and other visible signs. The pure intelligences they need neither eye nor voice to express their thoughts, because this intermediary usual in our relationship to them is not necessary, but communicate their feelings in a way that is their own and that is entirely spiritual. To be included, they just want it ". The founder of Spiritism gives the angels power sentimental. But the angels really feel feelings and emotions? Aristotle said that "the sky above there are beings that have been altered or removed from the passions, and lead good lives and eternal." We do not know for sure he was referring to beings such as the great greek philosopher, however, since ancient times men have always tried to approach to them as possible mediators of heaven. They did humanization. It would be plausible that the attribution of human feelings similar to those heavenly beings is a manipulation naive but uplifting, with no real foundation. But no, it is based. We can therefore say that the angels cry, scream and writhe in pain as in a fresco by Cimabue? In reality we must make a distinction. The angels-angels, who are part of the nine choirs and dwell in heaven, including the guardian angel, do not have feelings or emotions similar to those of humans. The intensity of their emotions is amplified! The angelic hosts know only one feeling: the unconditional love and infinite, absolute and universal love. Maria Maddalena de 'Pazzi wrote that "the angels love the creatures with an immense love, a love of truth and regeneration. It is an intense love that arises from the heart of the Word. " Not by chance are said to love and be loved is human love without being loved is angelic. But they suffer in proportion to how much they love and they love to unlimited may also suffer because of us. Above all, the guardian angels, which specify that "the more you love one suffers more."
Even the spirits guiding experience emotions similar to ours, in fact more similar because beings were once men or women, so they know their feelings. So suffer or rejoice again and continuously, based on our actions. The cause of their suffering and the source of their joy is always the same: modus operandi the person who chose to attend and to which all must travel the final leg of the journey that God will return permanently to the spirits guide are partakers of our cases. Laugh or cry, welcome or despair, depending on how we behave. When their task becomes too difficult and assist us in danger of becoming a lost cause, they may seek help from other spirit-guide, getting support or even replace. While guardian angel there follows seamlessly, without that his mission will be affected by our behavior, spirit guides may vary over the course of a life. "Life is a job to do," said Schopenhauer. The guiding spirits are the invisible workers who by virtue of their experience, full of analogies with the theme of our lives, inspire us good advice, we suggest the right answers, give us the repetitions that we need if we fail to learn the lesson. Every time our path provides a new learning course, our guardian may be accompanied or replaced by another more "prepared". It's like during the studies school. When primary school we are assigned to one or more teachers with a relevant qualification and preparation. In junior high, are the teachers, whose level increases in the upper classes, to take care of the students. Finally, we arrive to the University if we are to speak with professors and assistant professors. This rule can accuse her tear, in borderline cases (it once) a teacher follows the student throughout their studies. Likewise, it is possible that the same spirit guide us as a tutor to assist throughout the life. In certain moments of our earthly existence, for example, we assisted, sometimes even for a few moments, from the spirits of our deceased grandparents, parents, brothers or sons disappeared. Or from friends or spiritual teachers. In rare cases, there are spirits of people who lived side by side in the past. But even in this circumstance is familiar with the spirit guide us. He has known personally or by descent, in the present life or in a previous life. My spirit guide, for instance, was my comrade in arms in a life far away in time and replaced a previous guiding spirit at the moment when my life was entering a new phase, a new karmic connection. Today he is close to me to assist me in a job that makes her very valuable experience and easier for me to treasure his teachings.
guardian angels and spirit guides are seeking by every means imaginable to get in touch with us. In principle, they are deprived of the opportunity to intervene physically in our lives, so they can not touch or speak to us directly. This applies, of course, for ordinary people. But the angels are determined and when they want something, provided it is for a good, get it. Also because they would not be up to the role assigned to them if they had the possibility to send us good advice or preparaci to deal with situations that might interfere with our path. And guardian angels and spirit guides of the wicked, someone will ask, are perhaps the cowards because they do not have influence on their clients? The answer is implicit in the foregoing. Angels do not exercise unlimited power, which may to the extent that the man decides to turn to the right, to walk toward the light. Angels suggest, do not choose for us. Instead, they can decide how to get in touch with us in choosing a wide range of options. They can speak to us through dreams, during which our astral body is detached from the physical body and the etheric body and wanders in size metasensibili. Dreams, after all, are astral travel that allows us to see things otherwise impossible to see, to receive useful information and store them in consciousness. The angels speak to us constantly during the deepest phase of sleep, when we enter the world of dreams. And when we wake up, regardless of whether the memory of the dream vanish in an instant, or that we do not remember to have dreamed at all, we retain posts in the basement of angelic consciousness, ready to emerge within a few hours or a few days, suddenly, form of intuition, mental illness, impromptu decision, creative thinking, etc..
Angels are sending us signals that can be physical, real. Organize situations and circumstances so incredibly linked that only a fool would seriously call them random. As they appear poor but rich in scientific presumption of awareness of the words Monod, who called the case "the very root of the stupendous edifice of evolution"! Because the case does not exist. But if we were to assume the existence absurd, the angels would shake his head. They show us again that the case has an architectural structure, a sequential logic, an ultimate end. Some seemingly inexplicable events, but the determinants of our lives - and anyone, on reflection, can remember a fair number that concerns him - revealing the dark and intelligent work of the interim angels who serve the Divine Providence and operate under a law called Jung of "synchronicity." The word itself helps us to understand that coincidences are not random events but very thin sections of a drawing demiurgic elusive to humans in its details but not incomprehensible when we take our attention from the particular to the universal. This design, of which the angels are the expert calligraphers, is the salvation of souls.
There is a further and even more intriguing form of angelofania: the incarnation occasionally. Exceptionally angels can assume human form and animals and this aspect get in touch with us. It can be a meeting of a few seconds but not irrelevant. Angels can "disguise" a beggar or a pilgrim. St. Paul already warned her, saying that "through this (dressing) in fact, some without knowing it gave hospitality to the angels" (Hebrews , 13.2 ). It seems that angels appear in the guise of love child or old. In this regard, it is interesting that I tell something that happened to a dear friend some years ago when it was the beginning of his spiritual journey. She was in a mall, sitting at a café table, intent on eating a slice of pizza when he was approached by an elderly lady who despite not knowing it was staring at her in amazement. Suddenly the lady said, "Hello, I can sit with her? ". My friend was surprised but did not have time to respond. The woman was already seated next to her and asked: "Can you help me? I am anxious. " He spoke as if they had known all along. She confessed that she had lost her husband and felt very alone. In a moment he told her all her life. My friend, moved by a strong force for compassion for that woman suffering never seen before, asked God to help his soul so in need of comfort. And God accepted his request, which was accompanied by a waiver. My friend offered her a slice of pizza to the woman, and while he gave her love and light. The old woman ate with joy. His eyes were extraordinarily bright, it almost seemed to smile from within. Then my friend felt a strong heat in the heart and felt suddenly exhausted. Inspired by an inner voice, asked the woman to go in the first church that he had met on her way to light a candle to the Madonna. The old woman smiled. Thanked him, then got up and walked away happy. It disappeared as it had appeared without a trace. Later my friend felt the need to enter a church and stopped there to pray. There she received a message in expression of the Virgin Mary, who with infinite gentleness he said: "Today you have passed a great test ... an angel has been put in your way." My friend was shocked and demanded an explanation. Maria explained that angels can assume human form temporarily. "You have been challenged by the Angel Raphael, your guide. He will have tested and passed the test because you have made you a gift. He has given you the power to heal. Every time you heal Raffaele will be with you .... " My friend realized that the woman he met in the mall was an angel. And that angel! Since that day, the archangel Raphael is one of the guides accompanying him in his difficult but extraordinary journey. This episode can teach us some basic truths about life style of the angels. The first is that we must pay close attention to people we meet because they could be angels sent from Heaven to give us a try. The homeless or refugees begging at traffic lights could be angels. Even stranger that avoids falling between the railroad tracks when the train arrives, and even our dog or the type bizarre that we will never have more opportunity to meet, who comforts us with a phrase that opens the heart or changes us life. Angels are around the corner, on the bus, in the most unusual and recondite. Therefore we must pay close attention to people who cross our footsteps and strange events that happen to us.
We are used to think of the angels with affection but also deference. The angels appreciate our good feelings towards them but do not want to be adored. They wish to worship God with them and so they try to awaken in us the sense of the divine. Prayer, for example, is the devotion they love most. I am very happy when we recite the prayer to the angel guardian or other prayers to the angels, however, experience a joy even greater when we pray to the Lord with humility and fervor. Because "the prayer of the humble through the clouds," he recalls' Ecclesistico , and that's where the angels gather, and take it to God, you may increase many other aspects of angelic way of life. I will only highlight a unique and specific character of their temperament, humor. The angels have a sense of humor and thus address both the normal and the extraordinary administration of their affairs with levity and amenities. Their nature is such as to make it lively, witty and Lepidus. They tend to downplay and lessen because much prefer the comic than dramatic. Obviously I'm ethereal, that is very light. "Angels can fly because they know how to take lightly," said Chesterton. The smile is the lever that raises any weight and makes it less onerous for the soul. The angels are brilliant, the game and appreciate the joke. On the other hand, do not like gravity and take themselves too seriously. Mark Twain wrote that "there is no humor in heaven." Probably his angel has said these words with a sparkling "Ohibò that wise spirit."
To conclude this brief review, I would add that the angels bring in the backpack all you need to climb to the top: the unconditional love, kindness, beauty, humor, grace, discretion, loyalty, solidarity, friendship, sympathy, kindness and above all other virtues. They suggest an ideal model and try to move these goods, to kindle in us what the Greeks called aidos , the moral instinct. The Angels are confident that the men can sublimate ' aidos and approach their parameters of thought and action. They work night and day to show us a way of life angelic. Unfortunately, not only to get busy for us. In the next tag will talk about the fallen angels. Unfortunately, theirs is a bad lifestyle. (5 continued)
