Lao*

We were walking to Lao*. The soul rejoiced at the spring freshness and purity of the forest, embracing pines and young birches that had tender recently opened foliage... The words of Lao started sounding in my heart:

We Are Walking

We are walking...

Everything is rain-washed and shining with purity...

A forest is rustling, greeting us,

And it opens its arms, saying: “We are waiting for you!”

We are walking... The smell of fresh grass

And of tender May leaves

Fills the space around us...

Lao says:

“Open your hearts wide: I am your Friend!

“I will help you all

“To pour your voices into the melody of the forest,

“To dissolve in its harmony,

“To feel that the Earth is living, and to embrace it!”

We are walking...

We love and are ready

To accept and hold

All living, the entire created world,

On the palms of our selfless love!

However, what happened next on the place of power itself — in the ashram of Lao — was even more wonderful! Lao showed us His monastery, which existed and exists in a “non-manifested” world!

... It had a lake, and a mist was floating above its surface... From that mist, dim contours of Asian styled gazebos (the ones with curved roofs) appeared... Tiny brooks and small waterfalls were seen among stones... There were a lot of flowers with gentle fragrance and many other plants... Thickets of bamboo were here and there... Small fields of scarlet poppies irradiated warmth, and it was possible to feel it even on the physical plane... It was a marvelous human-made tropical garden in a northern land!

A song started sounding again in my heart:

Garden in the Ashram of Lao

A gentle scent of flowers...,

The warmth of petals...,
