The Seed in Spring

[Guest guest]

This seems appropriate for Easter:

 

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST !

Prosveta Publishing is pleased to offer you the Daily Meditation for

this 2008-03-22.

 

" During winter, the archangel Gabriel concentrates energies in the

seed. Conversely, the archangel Raphael liberates them during

spring. And in order to liberate them, he first makes the seed

die, so that everything contained within it can emerge to become

roots, stem, branches, leaves, flowers and fruits… And from these

fruits new seeds will come. Until this moment, the seed was an

immobile creature –paralysed, sluggish – and could even have

been so for thousands of years, waiting for the right

conditions.

A seed appears dead, a bit like a corpse abandoned in a coffin.

But in spring, when warmth returns, wherever there are seeds,

there is resurrection: each one is like a half-opened tomb. The

archangel Raphael begins his work, the stone is rolled away and

the shoot appears. The cause of this resurrection is the warmth

of the sun. "
