Relationships are means for expressing the soul, the form of continuity and of the sum of values. More than this: they are the most basic form of interaction which should always result in integration. However, what we see, at the end of this century, is the apparent bankruptcy of relationships. Why?
Relationships, whatever they may be, are based on values, which in truth are not rational values, like love, respect, transparency, etc.
They are intrinsic values, which are perceptible, but which cannot be based on aspects which became tools of the end of the century, such as techniques and methods.
This moment is for rescuing intuition and art.
Many people have forgotten how to be intuitive or creative or how to be themselves and act based on what they know.
Even not being aware of it, they bring to the relationships, even those which would or should be the most intimate relationships, habits, language and attitudes they have learnt. On a daily basis they act as automatons and not as creative thinking-beings with their own will.
Method and technique are means, no more than that, to express everything that we have or that we know, and this is an immeasurable treasure, no more than that, to express everything we have or know, and here the treasure is infinite, but the key to open this endless and wonderful treasure, that each being has inside himself, lies in intuition, in the intuitive language, in the expression of oneself with naturalness. This comes with self-knowledge, which transcends what is rational.
Complete knowledge includes the rational however, also, the intuitive, the instinctive, the creative and the perceptive.
Only when we complete this we can express love.How can there be love without basic feelings such as respect, truth, donation, acceptance?
These values, even the most basic ones, can only truly exist if translated into feelings, in a look, in a simple attitude of solidarity, in hearing or in making oneself present.
In relationships where there is a deep involvement, there are glimpses of such manifestations that sustain and feed them, however, in the great majority, these are attitudes without stability, like medicine to cure or restore, when they should, simply, be part of daily life.
But even such attitudes are still in a superficial level, close to the rational.
For a complete relationship, one needs intuition, perception and creativity, which can be translated into attitudes of good humor, tenderness, creative actions, presence of mind, being supportive, being present with necessary attitudes at the right moment, or only being present without anybody having to ask, or foreseeing and avoiding situations or manifestations unnecessary, harmful or hurtful for oneself, or for others or for nature.
Beauty is always complete in itself, but it is never complete by itself. True beauty if manifested when there is integration, and, then, even what is considered not beautiful becomes beautiful, as a whole.
The relationship of two imperfect beings can become perfect, if there are true values expressed in the interaction. Then, what flows between the beings will be the energy of love, that will dissolve the other energies.
