the wisdom of the Lord of the rings

The story of Lord of the rings lives in every one every day again. The orcs are our fear, the greed, proud, conceit, jealousy, arrogance, classification, prejudice and so on. Mostly they are not evident. They hide in the dark like in the story of the film. We are the wearer of the ring.
The ring is what we have to challenge and fulfil in live...





Frodo says: I cannot do this alone...
The Elb Queen says: to wear the ring is to be alone (to go the path of inner light).
There are fellowship and friends at the side. But to face the challenges insight means to be alone.
"And if you can not find a way - no one will" - only you can find your inner way - no one else can do it for you, no one else can fight against the inner fear, no one else can feel what you are feeling like no one can feel the hunger you feel it. This is very personally.
And even the smallest person can change the course of the future, the Elb-Queen says.

There will always be temptation, the short cut - just to have power in a short and "nice" way. But if you use the short cut you build on sand. There is no power but illusion. Illusion that you are special - but you are not. Everyone is equal to another and full of light in the same way. Only the attributes and covers like a cape of us are different and the way we wear our rings. And if we say "yes" to the challenge the ring brings - or ignore it which bring slavery like Frodo saw in the fountain mirrow.

The power of light is silent. It comes not with "hardware power". This power is illusion. The power of light comes unseen as a butterfly - it never says "what you shall do" like Sadoman says to the Orcs. The power of light leaves your challenges to your solution. But the power of light is there with destiny when you do not imagine and need it most.

If you watch Lord of the rings - watch it with our inner eye, all your characteristics. What are Orcs and what are your fellowships -



and where is your inner Gandalf with wisdom? Where is Frodo with brave and discipline? Where is Aragon - your inner fighter of the truth but also full of fear to take over the big responsibility...
And where is your hidden devil? Will you become a white wizard by winning over your biggest fear (the devil in Moria).
Or are you Godomir who lives in illusion but dies for his friends...




Frodo says: I wish the ring had never come to me (I wish I did not recognize that I can not move on in illusion... and see what I really have to do..)
Gandalf: So all wish to see it in such times, but it is not for them to decide!
All you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us...







And will you fight against your greatest fear inside (the devil of moira) to become the white wizard at the end?
Or Aragon who gives love and life to death for the truth..




Everyone of us can live the story every day in many situations of life. And every one can be stand up for inner development and light without speaking one word...
That changes your world.

Love and peace
