I am currently reading Paulo Coelho's manual of the warrior of light. He is the author of the alchemist. The book is like a Brazilian version of the Chinese art of war. I like to share 2 pages in the book that I found interesting.
All the World's roads lead to the heart of the warrior; he plunges unhesitatingly into the river of passions always flowing through his life.
The warrior knows that he is free to choose his desires and he makes these decisions with courage, detachment and sometimes with just a touch of madness.
He embraces his passions and enjoys them intensely. He knows that there is no need to renounce the pleasures of conquest; they are part of life and bring joy to all those who participate in them.
But he never loses sight of those things that last or of the strong bonds that are forged over time.
A warrior can distinguish between the transient and the enduring.
What is a warrior of light?
A warrior of light is someone capable of understanding the miracle of life and fighting to the last for something he believes in.
