[The transcript of Zechariah's interaction with the Voice, is as authentic as it could be reproduced (part 11)]
"Voice, VOICE, What IS this??? I CAN*T TAKE IT ANY MORE !!"
Zechariah screams in terrible pain. The Voice keeps calm.- You have yourself cursed M2 and now you wonder why it hurts? Five billion Most Powerful Cursed items floating around at the speed of light and you think it is a joke? Think again. You possess in yourself all the capability to think. You may have noticed that it is not good to consume that cursed powder? You may have been wondering why Crichton is always in such a bad mood and seems to lose money more quickly than you can give it to him? Cursing yourself or your own items has to be one of the stupidest things allowed by your rules, and despite that it is officially available for wise and high-level characters only - thank Infinite Creator for that! - the wisdom of even those in L20 seemingly is not enough to keep them off the temptation.
- For every action there is always and invariably an equal reaction. As above, so below. Every Cause has its Effect; every Effect has its Cause. But the Masters, rising to the plane above, dominate their moods, characters, qualities, and powers, as well as the environment surrounding them, and become Movers instead of pawns. They
use the Principle instead of being its tools. Let him read who can.
Suddenly Zechariah sees it clearly. He has prolonged his pain by - essentially - cursing himself. He has been causing pain to those nearest to him, with those souls that share the most spiritual DNA with him. It is like wondering why the whole body hurts when a tooth is being pulled off. Zechariah remembers well the sore teeth he had just recently, he remembers well that "And we are all connected to each other / In a circle, in a hoop that never ends", and he remembers well many things, beautiful and painful."What can I do to withdraw the curse? Please, I will do anything!!"
- Then just withdraw it. Simple. You do not need to play so much drama, Zechariah. The wise will understand, and you do not need to surround yourself with anyone except the wise. The unwise have their own challenges in life, they do not have time to read your hidden messages. Superficially I am infringing the Law of Free Will by giving you advice, but I am only giving you the advice that you already know in your heart.
- You have had enough time to kick against the goads so that it hurts.
You decide if you need more gaslighting or if you have had enough; you decide if you are ready for it or not; if you want to be happy or miserable. At once you realised your own errors, the whole alphabet quad drama issue was solved. Despite your proclamations of righteousness, your playing Jesus with your infinite power and love and sinlessness, it is always good to realise there
are extra miles to go, and seldom is the situation so hopeless that there is
nothing you can do to remove the blocking. Where there is a will, there is a way.
"Ok, I surrender. In fact I enjoy being wrong rather than being right, since that way I will always learn, and I have always wished to become a tolerable person at some point. Even if I am a raw apple now, it does not mean I will always be. I have experienced that the truth hurts and that I deserve what I get. Now I only want to put it into practice.
Can you verify that my ABCD plan is functional: To get A and C come to me, I need to unconditionally fulfil the wish of B. D has already released the energy. Is that right?"
Zechariah pauses at his explanation. He feels so stupid. He has blocked himself from realising how simple it is to solve the whole puzzle by just giving what he anyway can create at will, and there is nothing more he can do, until one of the actors again presents a wish that he is able to fulfil. Doing to other-self what you wish for yourself. If all your dreams are to be made true, just make the others' dreams true. Everything else is up to the law of Cause and Effect. - You cannot technically be sure about A and C coming, as that is up to them and not you. You can make B good, and D is already enjoying herself after ridding herself of the curse you pronounced on her.
Zechariah blushes on his stupidity."What can I do to make them most comfortable when they come?"
- COH is a balanced product in its effects. You get health, happiness and wisdom in a neat package. Yet, you should not smoke inside. Spring has come and you can smoke outside if you must smoke at all. Even the Tsar of Rossiya may not smoke inside the house. Behind every successful man is a beautiful woman.
"And?"
- I hate to repeat myself as much as you do, Zechariah.
But for your sake: Stop making such a drama about you. Everyone gets that you are rich and smart already. A, B, C and D feel equally in this matter. It is your job to make
them happy in the first place. You have made them
afraid of you instead. That is a tender feminine attribute. You have a lot to learn with the feminines. A lot.
- Yes, I know your occupation is gamemaster. Conducting the game requires certain openness, certain drama. And you cannot make all people happy all the time, because most of them by necessity do not understand you. But listen to A, B, C and D - after a certain point, openness becomes counterproductive. If you want to run the hidden pine trails of the forest, and all the beautiful things she has promised you,
try for once to keep your treasures to yourself. Switch
off the game and electronic equipment. Do not babble about your private matters with random people. Stop posting here. Delete old posts that cross the limits. The world will take care of itself, you take care of who you need to take care of. Enjoy doing the things you have wanted to do so much, for so long. Let nothing come between you.
"And?"
- I am sure if there are further things you need to do to make them happy, they will tell. After all, telepathy only goes so far.
The Voice smiles. They do not smoke COH, since it makes the breath smell bad, and besides it is late and it is still somewhat cold outside.Voice #12.
