Very few understand that God is Eros, Impulse, loving Impetus, spiritual fire, burning Arrow, the burning Dart of the seraph against the heart of Teresa d’Avila, the strong Spear of the celestial character against the breast of Father Pio. Very few understand it, even less experience it.
We are atrociously anthropomorphic when we say that God is Father. The real name of God is Spirit that is Wind, erotic Breath, spiritual Storm that controls Itself not to destroy. In the light (?) of patristic anthropomorphism we have divided faith and love. Genuine faith is actually a surge of the self towards the flaming attracting and rapturing Object. It is eros lighted up by Eros. This is the only interpretation of God-Love able to talk to the modern man, longing for the essential Pearl, more than ever
Bilocation. You do not feel a bilocative movement. You find yourself there and with: it is much easy. Likewise biblical and extra-biblical inspiration: you do not feel inspired, you are inspired. No inner, impulsive wind.
Biblical inspiration is the Flame that is made up by more “hot” instances: the Christic Object, the community, the tradition, the hagiographer. It is the made up and making up Flame.
Friday 7th August 2009. Night. In the ears voices of people interested in the celestial events of the Carthusian. The angels inform him: attention and listening are rising.
The prophet felt to be a carcass releasing Holy Spirit. He knew he released the Spirit (did not feel it) for the faith. He was spiritually Told.
The mad man in the villa of Bovino asks him point-blank: “Have you been to Bahia, with the poor?” He asks it in two steps, after some days. And he adds: “You are a poet”.
Being able to tell all the men all the faiths any kind of atheism: Hell exists and it is crowded. Being able to claim all over the continents, in any latitude and altitude, offering your own experience-evidence: Satan is terrible. It is a great grace not to know it, but it is a terrible grace to know it personally, on your skin, in your soul, in your inner and outer senses. Grace, the last, given because the believers inscribe the Christic Revelation in themselves, that includes God and anti-God, the infinitely distant extremes, but tragically collisioning.
You cannot survive the invasive presence of Satan without a very special Grace. A previous grace is not enough, the fund acquired of virtues and Gifts. Only a new grace of the Father, a new visit of Christ, a new infusion of the Spirit prevent us from being torn to pieces by integral death while living.
God’s judgment about those who had the world political and ecclesial power, will be much severe.
Canonization, in certain cases, canonizes tout court the damned. Only God scans kidneys and hearts.
About Wojtyla the Carthusian’s veins and wrists trembled.
The Trinity in S. Efrem. The sun is the Father, its light the Son, its heat the Spirit.
a) Christians do not have the sole agency for generosity.

c) Generous christians, men, animals, are the image of God.
According to the orthodox theology the most serious sin is sclerocardia, the harshness of the heart, whose expert is the Benedict, generated and created by the Acclaimed.
What is important is not doing for God, but letting God do for us.
Dream. A much worried Mr. Prodi rushes towards the “boilers”. His return to politics?
Wednesday 12th August 2009. A sleeping prayer for an unknown nun: “Lord, intervene in her life. I can see she is in danger (moral)”. The alarm clock follows, due to the angelic auricular chime, that invites to prey for this soul. It is about 5,20 a.m.. Soon after, again via auricular, an excited Rai release. Death of Berlusconi? Roman condemnation of the prophet?
