A conversation with the devil by / Bernardino Nilton Nascimento

D: How do you do, my friend?

A: I'm fine!

D: It does not look like it. You're lonely, you look sad, the way I like it.

A: Who said I'm lonely and sad?

D: I see.

A: I am meditating.

D: You're not there anymore, you screwed up in concentration, I went inside.

A: It does not hurt, you said that I was alone, now I am not anymore.

D: Do you think I'm good company?

A: It's not the worst. I who create you.

D: Lie, who created me was God.

A: But, I feed you.

D: What do you think you are, putting yourself above God?

A: I am pleased to see you fall below God. That's not very much your type.

D: Yes, but I will recognize you, but only for you.

A: None of this, people are changing, the world is changing.

D: I'm seeing and working for everything to have a sad end.

A: That would not be good for you. In the first place, you do not do any harm. Only try, however, each one takes the attitude that he wants. There is free will. On the other side is the Divinity, which rebounds with love in the heart. You just make noise and think you're in the field. People also have this same thought, but yours is victory, and in people it appears as defeat.

D: Look how many bad people are on my side!

A: Which side? You have nowhere to go, you wander in people's minds. If everyone goes to the spiritual side, you are alone. Your presence only exists in the mind.

D: Do not talk bullshit! I'm on the other side too! See how many spirits are bothering here on Earth!

A: You spoke well, they are on Earth from attachment, but this, over time, will see that it does not help, and the best thing to do is to recover. They will find that they can not take back or have anything they have possessed, and thus they will surrender to eternal life without suffering, and will still have the help of our superior brethren.

D: Dream it, asshole! There are people who trust me, and you yourself have already fallen into many temptations.

A: I fell and I will continue to fall, but every day I am decreasing your diet and wanting to see you on the side of good. I will give you, at all times, the remedy of compassion, humility, solidarity, brotherhood and love.

D: You need not appeal, trying to take my strength with these words of love. You know that takes away my powers of temptation.

A: Did you see how weak you are? With just one word I tear you down. Just talk about love and you're weak. I will make you well inside of me, and then tell everyone the secret to stop trying: "the practice of altruistic love and the desire for happiness of others make you disappear."

D: Do you really think you'll have time to tell everyone the secret to knock me over? Until then I have done many misfortunes!

A: Until then we've learned a lot, and the secret is already being spread to everyone. We will leave you without your main food: anger, ingratitude, theft, envy, greed, fear and hatred. Only good will reign, and God will be strong, because we will be nourishing him with love.

D: Speaking of God ... where is he?

A: You are here, listening to our conversation and having fun.

D: Then I'm leaving.

A: You will not, no! What are you afraid of?

D: You just want to destroy me.

A: Who said that? I think you're cool! You help a lot in my decisions.

D: How, if most of the time your attitudes are exactly the opposite of what I say?

A: But for me to know which is right, I must know what is wrong, and you will show me what is wrong. But the right attitude is that I have to practice.

D: I did not expect anyone to be grateful to me and, yes, my servant.

A: That I can not! I am a servant of myself.

D: That's best! I thought you were going to talk about God.

A: No ... God has given me free will, not for me to be his servant, but for enlightenment, and for that I must be free and with a heart full of gratitude, compassion and love for life, for my neighbor and by me.

D: I've done everything I could to make a deal with him, but he did not accept it.

A: Of course, you want his place, dominating people's minds! And this he does not admit. For him, each has to grow and seek his way, seeing the best for himself. We have to grow spiritually free as the wind, joyful as spring.

D: Ah, my comrade, with me it's in the pressure! Bobeou, I am disturbing, pestering, offering the pleasures that this "paradise called Earth" owns and people like to enjoy, and for that they use any weapon. And I'm here to provoke them to use the worst weapons, for the idiots to be happy.

A: Only everyone you took to wealth, then became poor and still owed. They left for the afterlife and are back, to pay. Now complain about the paradise you offered.

D: I'm not all bad. I do not grease the sick.

A: Sick people end up giving more food to God, and you end up not being able to penetrate their minds.

D: No need too! There are many people in good health to fall into temptation.

A: That will change. We are improving ourselves and receiving great reinforcements of love from the world. spiritual. It has been allowed until the return of these great masters to help us.

D: I call that an appeal, though, I can turn into anything, a monster or a beautiful being, and disrupt that plan.

A: Ugly you are not. People would be afraid and would not let you grow as much as you grew up. Sometimes you are very well fed, but I have faith in putting you on a diet.

D: Did you know that I have all the time in the world and I am much stronger than before?

A: Well, in fact, the human race is in profound change and evolves every moment. Only it still takes seven steps forward and three steps back. There at the beginning of evolution, man did not know how to speak, neither knew God nor you, but he had a little kindness in his heart. They were like animals: each took care of his tribe and this shows that he fed God within himself, rather than to you. What you call evil was only the defense of his tribe, and for that he had to kill those who threatened him. With evolution, he learned to speak, to have dreams and desires. Then the man created you and fed you with lies, thinking that you were deceiving your heart of goodness, which is the food of God.

D: Do you believe that?

A: I believe, so I'm listening to you. You have im- pedested the Buddha in his meditation, pestering Jesus and several other good spirits who have come to enlightenment. They also listened to you, they listened to you, but they did not give up their goals of speaking of purification, reincarnation, love and the desire to see the happy one.

D: Yeah, that's what you're right about. I lost some big battles.

A: As I desire the happiness of my neighbor and I am refining to think only by heart, with the balance of mind, you are not being invited to the banquet. How about you leave?

D: I go, because from talking about love, happiness for our neighbor and God, I'm weak and sleepy. Let's go to sleep?

A: No, I will continue my meditation and not be disturbed again. I know you try to get into my mind when I meditate.

D: I'm weak, very weak, I'm fading! What are you doing to me?

A: Wishing you good night. Sleep with God.
