This letter is both interesting and insightful. The concept of love has become totally devalued in our civilization. It has almost become a synonym of sexual intercourse or lust that leads to it. Love is a special relationship between two beings. They are so drawn to each other that their souls merge and become one. Entering the body is only one aspect of unification. Anastasia experiences profound love to Christ and part of it is an inner course, which leads to spiritual unity and bliss. This certainly is more fascinating and valuable than the sensation of contentment after watching "Terminator 6". We may not be able to follow her path, at least not now, and feel ecstasy accompanying the spiritual meeting with God or a human being. Yet, this letter gives a lot to think about, makes us stop in everyday rush and ponder... Thanks Anastasia for being different and so interesting, and for being brave to open up and share your experiences. yello

wow...what adeeply moving comment yellow....my He/She God has used you to move me to tears of bliss and joy. He/She has flowed His Face of love and blessing to me through you. Your face is one of the many faces of my He/She God...my Jesus. I pray and ask Him now to shine His /Her Faces on urs and fill you with peace and blissssssssss......Anastasia

Jesus coming into you?
I think satan has you so whacked
Your ego is the problem with you

Hey, wind_swept_mind, your attitude reminds me of the good will of inquisitors from middle ages. They knew the truth even before the first question was asked. Let me point out a few issues, which you seem to have ignored.

There is nothing more valuable in our world than someone's trust in sharing their feelings. You have broken this trust. Emotions are beyond judgement. You will not be condemned for your dreams of rape or for what you do alone in your room. Only when you destoy a human being, through your actions or words, only then you deserve comtempt. You hurried to much - you threw a stone without a bit of understanding and went away.

The ego is not a problem. The problem is universal ignorance about the ego. Why don't you send all your money to starving children in Africa? Because you have an ego, which looks after itself and thanks to which you are still alive. Do you give blood every month or three to your local Emergency or Hospital? If you do I admire you. If you don't I think you have a big ego which puts your well-being much higher than the health of sick people and victims of accidents. Are you happy that you earn more than your collegue? Of course, you can afford a better car and more exotic holidays. Why do you earn more? Because you work two hours longer every day or because you have a higher position? Your education is probably the achievement of your parents more than yours and your intelligence is on hire from Life, not your possession. You will have to return it one day. The ego is not a problem, but what one does with it.

You are so eager to conclude that someone has been possessed by satan! Anastasia was brave enough to share deep emotions of beauty and awe she experienced while meeting the God and interacting with Him/Her. We don't know if you are an atheist, you didn't bother to tell us. If so, your irony is evil and you have against yourself billions of people in the world who one way or another believe in God. If you do in fact believe in God, has your local preacher told you that there is only one way of experiencing God and Her/His creation? If so, then you are both guilty of stupidity, as you have condemned Franciscans, Sufis and mystics of all religions, Christianity included.

Wind_swept_mind, I could go on and on. I am afraid you would not listen. You should have thanked Anastasia for the privilige of learning about her experiences and if you have any problems with her writing it would have been much more constructive had you explained your position. We could all benefit. You too.

As you are not the measure of wisdom and your knowledge about the Good and Evil does to exceed that of Mr John Average.

Dear yellow,
I wish you were here so I could embrace you and kiss your cheek. " Wind_swept_mind" is a man who considers himself my lover of which i gracefully and respectfully turned down. This arcticle by him is him lashing out at me and getting his revenge for my celibacy. I pray for his soul and forgiveness.
Love and bliss to you yellow. You are my dear friend who doesnt expect me to sleep with yu to get you to love me.
Love and bliss to you in my He/She Gods shining Faces, my Jesus, Anastasia

Someday as we stand before Him/Her you will see Him/Her and say, " I wish I could have known you this way before " and you will thank Him/Her for giving me this blissssssss with Him/Her on earth....

I still like your name , wind swept mind....I forgive you, so easily and deeply.... I don't blame you personally for your anger....you are forgiven...come and jump into this sweet pool of bliss with His/Her shining Faces....our Jesus....the risen One...Anastasia

i give you a great big kiss right now...I love you my sweet brother....Love in His/Her Name our Jesus....Anastasia

Anastasia,

I ponder every day if it will ever be possible to be safe, open and trustful on our planet. Of course, I will never find the answer. The reality is too complicated to predict the future. But I consider many options and try to calculate the probability of them occurring. Unfortunately, none of the conclusions is optimistic.

Take the single sentence of the anonymous persona named Mark. He obviously ridicules you, compares you to Belzebub, or Satan. Only because you have the courage to speak in favour of women. Noone knows much about God. The best proof is the number of religions that exist. The relationship with God depends on faith or belief, which is very personal. At least it should be. If you went on a mission to destroy other religions or people belonging to other denominations, then a fight would ensue and ridiculing would be natural. But all you do is sharing your personal experiences and feelings. You do not harm anyone, do not send spam trying to convert others. You open up and let those who are interested get to know you better... I will not fight with Mark. He will probably not come here any more after having done a good deed for the traditional male-oriented christianity. I would like to reassure you that girls and women are respected not only by themselves. My conviction is that God has nothing to do with genders. If God, as the Bible teaches, created people in God's own image, neither sex would get more favours.

Girls and women are the beauty of human race. They give more than men, are more sensitive than men, more gentle, kind, less blind "progress"-oriented. Whereas a man often gets satisfaction from possessing, a girl values emotional experience. A man will keep filling his box with new objects, a girl will use things she has in her basket to play with friends, will turn her talents into dreams, create fairy-tales, will fill the time with beauty.

Anastasia, do not give up. Look after yourself and stay safe. Do not expose your rich soul to blunt and arrogant relatives of belzebub, unless you have a safe escape. The faces of all the people who have lived on Earth would not be enough to convey the richness of the Creator. Male faces would be the embodiment of the greatest lie, were it not for the soft beauty of a girl's face, loving and sensitive...

you are a whack job just wanting attention
grow up already

your arrogance has blinded you from the truth which is Anna you are hardly alive. Look at you skin just hanging off your bones. And didn't you just get done dating a Syrian man. So you ain't so cerebral or celibate. I am on to you and have warned many people of your seduction. You are a phony............even Nikki agrees. What it is is you can't really get attention until you discovered disruption attracts. Now you are in your heaven with all the attention you ever wanted.
vanity, fear, cowardace, are your characteristics.............and you don't even care.
that my old friend is egocentism and self-centeredness....the last thing Jesus would be
You disgrace him and I'm ashamed of you.
see ya around some other day. your trickery bores me.
