Who and what am I
2.
The Spirit


Everyone is sitting around the breakfast table
on a beautiful, sunny morning.
- Alina - Alino -
Son and daughter - Manuel - Manuela
and of course Nina and Nino




As usual, they are having breakfast in silence.
Then Alina says:
» What do you think of taking a longer ‘walk’?
Or more precisely – a small flight.
There are still so many beautiful things to see here.
But these things are a bit further away.
Let us choose a simpler mode of transportation for this reason.
You two – Nina and Nino – are already familiar with it. «
Everyone agrees –and off they go.
:-) Nina and Nino are inwardly happy :-)
:-) because Manuela and Manuel are with them :-)

At first, they slowly fly over a beautiful river valley.
They know it well from their previous journeys.



Again and again
they delight in the diverse shapes of the rocks
and the cities on both sides of the river.



Eventually they land in a place
where they have an extensive view of the land at their feet.




For a long time, they sit silently
and take in the beauty and tranquility.

After a while, Alino - Manuel and Manuela get up.
Alino winks at Nino:
» See you two later -
Alina will help you from here on. «

Finally Nino says:
» Your husband - Alina – promised to tell us something
about the spirit «

» Well - Nino und Nina «
Alina begins - and looks at Nino with a smile.
» I would like to talk a little bit about this subject today.

As you can imagine,
it is a really interesting, yet also difficult, topic.
Men and women have thought about this since time immemorial
Both on our planet and on your planet.
You aren’t the only occupants in this vast universe. «

» Yes – we are aware of that
and here with you
we get to actually experience this - Alina. «

» Alright « Alina continues
» A great deal has been written down on your planet
since the invention of the written word.
Some ancient scripts have been deciphered hundreds of years ago.
You understand some things
but there is still much that you do not understand. «

» May I interrupt – Alina?
That is exactly my problem.
There are so many books about the 'spirit' -
They only confuse me. «

» Nino – there are realities that you are, unfortunately,
unable to recognize today.
Two hundred years ago, for example,
man did not know about atoms or molecules.
You understand the world the way you can see
and feel it a bit better these days.
You have difficulties understanding
the non-material stuff:
The ramifications, the effects,
and above all, their subtle and strong energies.





Alina looks at the two
- slowly puts a rock in each of her hands -
- and gives both Nino and Nina a stone each -
» How many stones do I have now? «
» That’s easy - Alina -
now you don’t have any stones «

» So - you two -
when I give material things away
then I don’t have them anymore «


» And now a new thought:
Some time ago, my husband told you something about the body.
That is to say, he told you content.
This content is now with you.
But ....«
» Oh - Alina – I know what you want to say.
Alino still has this knowledge:
Oh wow – this is great!
He didn’t get poorer
through sharing - «

» Just a minute« Nina says after a while:
» that is a huge difference -
I lose material things when I give them away.
Non-material ‘things’, such as thought contents or ideas,
can be multiplied without any loss. «

» And you have agreed
to refer to non-material things as
the spirit or spiritual. «

- Deep in thought, they look at the landscape -
- large mountains of clouds that shimmer in the sunlight drift by.




» Come - let’s go to the edge »
Alina puts her arms around Nino’s and Nina’s shoulders.
Unexpected - love – happiness
an unknown release of tension
and an almost unreal lightness and calmness
flows through their bodies.

:-)

» This is just a small, initial view of the land of the spirit. «
Alina finally says.
» There is still much more left to say.
But I am under the impression - Nina and Nino -
That this is enough for today.
We have enough 'time' here.
Let’s head back home. «

Impalpably they fly back and land in front of the house.
Alino is already waiting for them with his son and daughter.

» Well, let us end this fantastic day in peace with a good meal. «
