Let us listen now to what our instructor Trigueirinho tells us about fear.
The world media exploits such currently compelling theme as that of Immunity for its more threatening and alarming aspects, loading their headlines with constant threats of great epidemics; the outbreak of unknown and threatening diseases, in part due to the growing microbial resistance to the already known medicines; threats of chemical, biological, psychic, sound, cybernetic wars; advertisement and the subliminal manipulation of the collective consciousness; the polemic theme of the vaccines; the uncontrollable contamination of the soils, of the waters, of the air, of the food, etc. And, despite the great advances of medicine, certain subtle aspects of this condition, nevertheless, remain still not correctly valued by science, which occupies itself only with its material aspects and manifestations.
This new cycle of studies concerning Immunity begins with an rare and intriguing report, extracted from the Agenda of a disciple and direct collaborator of Sri Aurobindo, known as The Mother*, both Initiates who cleared the inner paths for the manifestation of a New Consciousness and of a New Age for this planet and for this humanity. The report will be transcribed in its entirety, to preserve its original energy, though divided into two parts, due to its size.

“I saw, and learned…”
(a real story – Part 1)
I was in Japan. It was at the beginning of January 1919. Anyway, it was the time when a terrible flu raged there in the whole of Japan, which killed hundreds of thousands of people. It was one of those epidemics the like of which is rarely seen. In Tokyo, every day there were hundreds and hundreds of new cases.
The disease appeared to take this turn: it lasted three days and on the third day the patient died. And people died in such large numbers that they could not even be cremated, you understand, it was impossible, there were too many of them. Or otherwise, if one did not die on the third day, at the end of seven days one was altogether cured; a little exhausted but all the same completely cured. There was a panic in the town, for epidemics are very rare in Japan. They are a very clean people, very careful and with a fine morale. Illnesses are very rare. But still this came, it came as a catastrophe. There was a terrible fear. For example, people were seen walking about in the streets with a mask on the nose, a mask to purify the air they were breathing, so that it might not be full of the microbes of the illness. It was a common fear….
Now, it so happened I was living with someone who never ceased troubling me: “But what is this disease? What is there behind this disease?” What I was doing, you know, was simply to cover myself with my force, my protection so as not to catch it and I did not think of it anymore and continued doing my work. Nothing happened and I was not thinking of it. But constantly I heard: “What is this? Oh, I would like to know what is there behind this illness. But could you not tell me what this illness is, why it is there?” etc.
One day I was called to the other end of the town by a young woman whom I knew and who wished to introduce me to some friends and show me certain things. I do not remember now what exactly the matter was, but anyway I had to cross the whole town in a tram-car. And I was in the tram and seeing these people with masks on their noses, and then there was in the atmosphere this constant fear, and so there came a suggestion to me; I began to ask myself: “Truly, what is this illness? What is there behind this illness? What are the forces that are in this illness?”
I came to the house, I passed an hour there and I returned. And I returned with a terrible fever. I had caught it. It came to you thus, without preparation, instantaneously. Illnesses, generally illnesses from germs and microbes take a few days in the system: they come, there is a little battle inside; you win or you lose, if you lose you catch the illness, it is not complicated. But there, you just receive a letter, open the envelope, hop! puff! The next minute you have the fever. Well, that evening I had a terrible fever.
The doctor was called (it was not I who called him), the doctor was called and he told me: “I must absolutely give you this medicine.” It was one of the best medicines for the fever, he had just a little (all their stocks were exhausted, everyone was taking it); he said: “I have still a few packets, I shall give you some” — “I beg of you, do not give it to me, I won’t take it. Keep it for someone who has faith in it and will take it.” He was quite disgusted: “It was no use my coming here.” So I said: “Perhaps it was no use!” And I remained in my bed, with my fever, a violent fever. All the while I was asking myself: “What is this illness? Why is it there? What is there behind it?…”
At the end of the second day, as I was lying all alone, I saw clearly a being, with a part of the head cut off, in a military uniform (or the remains of a military uniform) approaching me and suddenly flinging himself upon my chest, with that half a head to suck my force. I took a good look, then realized that I was about to die. He was drawing all my life out (for I must tell you that people were dying of pneumonia in three days). I was completely nailed to the bed, without movement, in a deep trance. I could no longer stir and he was pulling. I thought: now it is the end. Then I called on my occult power, I gave a big fight and I succeeded in turning him back so that he could not stay there any longer. And I woke up. […]
We will make a pause here, and will complete this report next week. An aspect that was well highlighted by the Mother, of the utmost importance to understand more deeply the theme of Immunity, is the marked presence of fear, deleterious and paralyzing energy, cunningly very much exploited currently by certain groups of evil, for unspeakable ends, as we will see.
This flu referred by the Mother became worldly renowned as the Spanish Flu, the greatest pandemic reported in the human history, of unusual virulence and mortality, the most devastating, which took the life of 50 to 100 millions of human beings, and which plagued nearly the whole Planet, in the period of the First World War (1917-1920).
A simple and very efficacious prayer directed to our Guardian Angel can be of great help for those who know will benefit from these subtle and powerful realities, which protect, illumine and guide us. We can use it at any time of the day and of night, for example when leaving home in the morning, before falling asleep, when awakening; in the face of any difficult situation, and in so many other opportunities. It is a vigorous and affirming prayer:
Guardian Angel, which pervades my being,
Guide me at night, guide me during the day.
Protect me from myself,
and from the obscure forces that try to delude me.
You are made of light,
you walk in Love,
you act through the Power of God,
fill my heart with Peace.
So be it, Amen!
The theme of Immunity will continue.
