Meditation: “RESURRECTION OF HES”. Effect: “RAPTURE”.
Invocation:
Oh Jesus of mine, I beseech You to unveil me the secret of your death, of death, and of all deaths. I beseech You, in shedding till the last drop of your blood and truly dying, to tell me why individual beings die and we do not see their resurrection.
Hes' resurrection is the hardest meditation subject, but fundamental for the inner life. Six precedent subjects are nothing more than instruments to achieve the mystical rapture of the spiritual resurrection.
The “RESURRECTION OF HES.” Those who think of death, perhaps refuse to form an idea about it, or conceal it with the idea of a more venturous hereafter, as if it were impossible to sustain the thought about death itself.
Subject: Resurrection of Hes. Effects: Rapture.
An evening, a daybreak, the sight of a tranquil valley from the peak of a mountain, moonbeams over countless sea waves, the pure smile of a child, in short, the whole beauty of the world penetrating and permeating limited boundaries of the individual being, and liberating his soul who, although fleetingly, gets a wonderful glimpse of his identity with the whole Creation.
