Birds fly and, just like them; energy also flies in its diverse manifestations.
To observe the birds flying, we must raise our heads, looking up.

Some people love to look at the sky. Those are the ones who looked at it at least once. Nobody loves something he never did.
Sometimes, ideas “emerge” in a similar manner in diverse parts of the Planet.

Nowadays one could say that the “planetary hamlet” is one only, interlinked by the means of communication and their varied media, practically instantaneously.
However, a feeling that is present in my heart is that nobody is, in fact, a creator of ideas, however those who can be considered the great creative beings, in the various areas of expression, and here I include industrial, literary, philosophical, artistic ideas in general, etc., they are indeed the great “fishermen” of ideas.

This is the expression that interprets this feeling: a “fisherman of ideas”.
Because the energy that permeates our mental world is as available as the energy of the sun, it is here, available to whoever wants to use it.

Harnessing this energy goes from simply “receiving it”, when walking under the sun, or meditating at sunrise or sunset, or, like any plant, simply being present in nature, without major difficulties, and it can also be a matter of applying methods and instruments, like those used to capture solar energy, from a simple sun heater to an equipment to be used in spaceships.
The fact is simple: the energy of the sun is here for whoever wants it.

The energy that permeates our mental world is also there, “in the air”, dancing in the wind.
In the air there is the meeting between what comes from the sky and what comes from the earth, the cosmic energy and the telluric energy meeting and shaping the mental fields available for human beings. Many “ready” ideas float in the air and there are people who find it easier to access them, however, in truth, anyone can “harness” this energy, just as anyone can use solar energy.
This “feeling” that ideas float in the air appeared for the first time many years ago, when a great friend, a successful businessman, after one of his business trips abroad, had the idea of marketing cheese bread in the United States, something as yet unknown there.

He commented that he was not interested in this business, but he was sure it would be successful, for whoever put it into action. After a time, I read the news that the President of the USA was eating cheese bread, which had been introduced in the USA and was achieving a great success there.
The same businessman in other occasions commented about other ideas he was having; after a certain time, many were applied in different points of the planet, not by him, who continued to concentrate on his original aims.

He is one of those persons who easily access the field where this energy floats, connecting more specifically a certain range of ideas that are translated in their mind.
It is obvious that the encircling field for “fishing” ideas varies in accordance with its synchrony in a given period; it can fly through the fields of objectivity as well as of subjectivity. In truth, it is the person who directs the synchronization.

At the same time, observing the great yogi masters and persons with great spiritual clarity, I could observe the same reality, of new ideas, which did not exist yet, but that were just like “fished” by them, they shared them with others without any other interest than to really help others, aiming to give new subsidies to people, to help them to grow.

In other parts of the planet, with completely different cultures, I could see similar manifestations, as if aiding the strengthening of this sensation which touched me: that ideas are around, it suffices to open the channels to fish them.

In a certain time, around 1985, in some talks I gave, the same thing happened with certain intensity.
As I have the habit of meditating before performing activities, the same thing happened, when simple “new” ideas came to my mind and it was very interesting to see through information received from other parts of the planet, some of those same ideas, originating from sources completely diverse among themselves.
The source, for sure, was the same. The users of that source, including myself, had drank from the same “water”, in spite of being completely separated physically.
If we observe that the same thing has been happening in several fields of the human activity at different times, but particularly in the scientific field, it is interesting to note that some of these “coincidences” of research and discovery happen simultaneously in different parts of the planet.
Today, with the advent of the Internet, one might say that it would be rare to ignore what happens in different “campus” of research, but this did not happen in the past.

The purpose here, however, is not to discuss facts that are here only to illustrate this “idea”: much more important is the opening for this reality, which is available and which each one can use.
In the physical field it is more obvious: if suffices to go out into the sun and receive the solar energy, to have a radio set and tune to the desired station, where different listeners are listening from the same source. On television, the same thing happens: it suffices to have a TV set and tune to the frequency of the image transmitted via satellite and a game or show can be seen simultaneously in Australia, Italy or Brazil.

In the mental field this is possible; however the programs are very wide-ranging.
Humanity itself broadcasts many ideas in the air, and we know well that, at the moment, many of these are not good, but it is possible to filter them. Here arises the need of knowing what we want to be in tune with.

In the spiritual field, it is possible to have access to genuine essences, and this is made through the heart. It is there that the soul captures what is most sublime.
In this space there are no negativities in the air.
One should emphasize that several “religions” have lost much of their essence and consequently of their spirituality. Thus, when we speak of spirituality, we are not speaking of religions, but of values that go further beyond superficial interests or the ego, which are genuine and fundamental for the whole humanity. These are values where the ego has no place, because, in reality, the ego is a virtual creation which humankind nourished and promoted.

The heart has the portal which may open us to spirituality and this is not complex at all. For this, the values that permeate this spiritual field must be restored and this can only be achieved if they are put into practice.

One of them is respect, and this means, primarily, respect for the values that permeate it.
Then, the energy that originates from these values will flow with abundance, both in the spiritual and mental fields and in the physical field.
Therefore, if we wish to see something different of that which is shown by our feet, we must raise our heads and our vision must be in tune with what lies beyond the horizon of the obvious, using the heart as a receptor.
