Contacts for Figueira
t
his edition leads us to a closer contact with figueira, from the perspective of it being the physical manifestation of mirna Jad. We are invit-ed to know a bit more about its areas and to reflect about what it means to us to be connected with this Planetary center, something which is normally out of the reach of our understanding.on page 3, trigueirinho aims at expanding the ways that we can engage in this reflection, reminding us, at the very beginning, that to be in Mirna Jad may represent a portal for suprahuman existence. as a portal and as a nucleus for radiation of the energy coming from superior planes, it establishes a bridge between planetary life and universal consciousness. even in relation to its physical aspect, there is much to be revealed. We know little about what happens in the areas and sectors of figueira. expansion of tasks, development of sectors, recovery of forests, remod-eling and new buildings, to mention a few examples, are not always familiar to the collaborators who visit this spiritual center. often we spend long periods without visiting a specific area and when we see it again we are surprised with what we perceive: the renewed environment, newly arrived visitors, new impulses…
in this and in the next editions of Signs of Figueira,
we will try to fill this gap a bit, by bringing up to date information about the areas and reflecting about their innermost characteristics. We begin with
Ter-ras da Irmandade, which has significantly been
transformed by the most recent impulses received. the section meditation offers us two texts very much connected to each other: the science of love and charity, elevated themes of fundamental experi-ence in these times. the first one is inspired by the energy of constellation cygnus, and the second one by teresa of calcutta. the insert with thoughts of the day for the fourth trimester contains reflections adapted from Foundations of Buddhism, by Helena roerich.
Have a nice reading,

Trigueirinho is a spiritual philosopher, author of 77 books and more than 1,600 talks re-corded live. he is the coordinator of figueira Council and member of the Permanent guid-ance Council of the grace Mercy Order.
and to be willing to live also in the body of light, the vehicle that may be active in our spiritual level – when this level has already become field of serv-ice for the work of the monad.
To be in Mirna Jad means to be living a superior
line of evolution, therefore, to be in contact with other Planetary centers whose energies mirna Jad synthesizes. the human beings who already ex-press high patterns of behavior will naturally par-ticipate in these experiences, until they are able to feel stable in this superphysical civilization which functions as a bridge between planet earth and universal consciousness.
in the book “mirna Jad, inner sanctuary”, trigueirinho transcribes the following message: “truth cannot express itself in half measures. You have to be totally willing to be transformed, because otherwise it is not possible for the di-verse dimensions to interpenetrate”.
What is the meaning of being in Mirna Jad?
To be in Mirna Jad does not necessarily mean
to find oneself there consciously or physically. for us, it may represent the portal to suprahuman ex-istence, and to be undergoing the first experiences in the vibration of life on the divine level. if this is the case, then we, as monadic consciousnesses, will be living in mirna Jad.
this experience of being in Mirna Jad is for those
who are already close to the consciousness of the monad and who, therefore, do not offer resistance to transcending the evolutionary degree they have already reached. it is for those who do not fear to go beyond the common consciousness of humanity.
To be in Mirna Jad means to have gone through
deep inner healing, to have one’s own subtle bod-ies already harmonized and prepared for trans-portation to other dimensions, subtler ones than this third one where the humans of the surface live. as intraterrestrial civilization, mirna Jad is under solar and cosmic vibrations, which life of the surface would not be able to stand.
mirna Jad, by bringing balance to individuals and groups, brings them to experience Love of a quality unknown to humanity in general.
To be in Mirna Jad it is necessary to have

Terras da Irmandade
the search for a new
consciousness
hen we enter Terras da
Ir-mandade, a first
impres-sion we have is that of a contact with the unusual, with something we cannot define exactly and which brings us to the new, to that which is still to come. from a more mental point of view, the question that arises is: but, after all, why is the area called
“Ter-ras da Irmandade”? is it a space
dedicated to fraternity, to a life of harmonious collaboration among brothers and sisters? Yes and no, or better, more than this.
it has already been told to us that these lands represent the place of figueira’s consciousness, where life must take place in connection with the White brotherhood, as a nucleus for us to be permanently in touch with the Planetary Hier-archy. and because it is a seed of this purpose, we must project all of our intentions and let it pro-duce fruit.
the teaching announces that the emergence of a new life depends on the stimulation of the souls and on the union with the king-doms of nature and with the devic kingdom, so present in this area. it also teaches that for the seed to germinate it is necessary to have a simple life, one that concentrates the energy in the development of patterns favorable to the recon-struction of the planet.
two aspects are fundamental to create a basis for this new way of
life: environmental harmony and the energy of Healing. the first one follows strictly from the Law of economy, the integration of the kingdoms and the rescue of our relationship with the indig-enous consciousness, naturally inclusive and aggregating. the second provides a way to dis-connect from the past, liberate memories and open a space for the new. both aspects work in an integrated manner, without our realizing how far one extends and where the other begins. they are both part of the same unit, that our human condition makes us separate, with the aim of being able to understand them.
When we see alternative tech-nologies being applied in order to respect the environment and promote the integration of the kingdoms of nature, we witness austerity guiding the interrela-tionships and guaranteeing the bases of equilibrium. in the same way, when the elements for Heal-ing are understood and worked based on the indications of the Hierarchy, we notice that the past is left behind and the necessary conditions are prepared for the establishment of the future pat-terns of behavior.

The huts seem
to open the doors
that lead to a
closer contact with
the indigenous
consciousness, which
holds many keys
of knowledge and
wisdom
and economical use of some of he elements necessary for life:
conscious use of water, cap-tured from natural springs and brought to the tanks by water wheels – mechanisms that use the very movements of the riv-ers as their motor, without any environmental impact.
the sun as source of energy for numerous applications: water heating, working of basic com-munication equipment, illu-mination of environments and cooking.
organic agriculture.
natural treatment of the resi-dues, thus reintegrating them into the environment.
the external areas hold energies and sceneries that remind us of the uncommon. the way that connects the twelve igloos awak-ens in our conscience structures connected to cities of the future, where the geometric lines of the constructions naturally have a natural dialog with the nature which welcomes them. the huts, which will be employed to vari-ous activities, seem to open the doors that lead to a closer contact with the indigenous conscious-ness, which holds many keys of knowledge and wisdom.
Energy of healing
for those who arrive at Terras da
Irmandade, the energy of healing
first manifests in the hospital-ity. the practices and procedures of everyday life, impel us to the Higher, such as the observation of the sky – a practice of approxi-mation between science and spir-ituality – and Praxis Vertebralis, the subtle therapy that works on the spinal column, aligning the
being and liberating energies blocked that limit the harmoni-ous action of the material bodies: the physical etheric, the astral and the mental.
silence, prayer, telluric energy, life with the kingdoms and the strong devic presence are deter-mining factors in these processes of healing. the ceremonial aspect observed in Praxis facilitates the subtilization that permeates all
the work: the hospitality for the being, the initial care, the prepa-ration of the ambiance, the pro-cedure which is performed in the middle of the native woods – all of this leads us to a knowledge that may seem to come from light formed by the work of the devas and by the indigenous conscious-ness present in that space.
Sowing and renewal
it is as a field for the expression of the new that these Terras expand their aura to also receive children that come to figueira. in a direct relationship with the younger brothers of the mineral, plant and animal kingdoms, or following the adults in practical tasks, these young beings find conditions there to develop themselves in foundations different from those available in common life. not only the children, but everyone finds in that group life the appro-priate energy for renewal, for the way to transform oneself.
because it is one of the newest areas in figueira, with respect to the manifestation on the physical plane, the Terras da
Ir-mandade hold revelations and
impulses of great help for the preparation of the future that is being announced. of course, we should see this together with all of the other areas and sectors that form this spiritual center, aiming at keeping the correct at-titude when we get close to this reality: that of opening to the new and of detachment from the old structures.
and so, we have been asked: “How is life in Terras da Irmandade?” it has also been answered to us: “We do not know. it is necessary to live there to know it.” n

the science of Love
Love brings with it the Divine Perfection. Love enraptures. Love rescues. Love frees. Love unifies. Love generates Bliss. Love loves.
Love is simple. Love is free.
Love is Mother, Father, it is Brother and Sister.
Love is Peace.
Love is the Charity that comes from the bosom of the Creator Father. Love is the essence of the Cosmic Life.
Love is the only solution for all of you.
Love is the way to free yourselves from hypocrisy, from lies, from false spirituality, from the omissions, and from the obstacles to evolution.
Love is the Essence of the Heart of God.
Without it, everything is dark, tenebrous, nebulous, with no way out.
In the science of Love, the cells light themselves up and liberate beliefs and missteps, erratic goals. The past is unchained from its limiting prisons. Why not love?
Why not be the true Love?
Why not be the truth that the being claims to express? Why hide behind a false spirituality to avoid that which we fear, the unknown?
Do you fear Love, do you fear the Truth, do you avoid getting in direct contact with the shine of your solar essence?
Why do you defend yourselves from your brothers and sisters?
Why do you limit yourselves with your thoughts that fall on these same brothers and sisters like arrows that hurt and bleed? What prevents you from bringing to your
heart that which is different, dark or bright, pretty or ugly?
Love that unites the polarities rendering Service to the Plan prepares the Love of the New Earth. Love in this way is subtle, invisible, it is not material, but it is Real as the Father and the Mother are Real in the life of the Cosmos. Love is a rehabilitating, redeeming channel. Love is enrapturing, it is holy madness.
It is madness because it loves without limits and without choices.
It is saintly because it is purity, truth, light. It generates life bringing from the Cosmic Universe new beings that will be the continuity of the essence of the One Life.
From this kind of Love is generated the life of all the Kingdoms.
This Love springs from the core of the One Life and enables in the children of Creator Father and Mother the expression of their original purity.
Love is Communion. Love is Fusion. Love is Union. Love is Peace. Love is Life.
Love is the white and pure essence of the Being. Love crosses and fulfills with its liberating light the darkest darkness, the deepest abyss, the scalding hell. Love covers with Peace the pattern of conflicts and wars.

in charity
The one who is in the yoga of charity sees the Christ light up in the core of suffering.
The one who lives through the yoga of charity is attracted by need, as the birds are attracted to the sky.
The one who supports the yoga of charity transforms the burdens with the lightness of impersonal love.
The one who transcends through charity sees in all suffering a manifestation of the Law in expansion.
The one who loves charity does not retreat in the face of the unexpected, because he or she knows that Christ awaits him or her beyond the veil. The one who ascends through charity uses for rungs the sacrifice of the self
before the need of the other.
The one who awaits Me through charity finds Me in the service to the needy.
The one who awaits Me in charity will find Me in the vestibule of the poorest.
Those who get united through charity have in the Common Good their treasure.
The one who awakens through charity will be like a new born baby stripped of human illusions.
The one who loves Me and sees charity in Me expands his or her vision until he or she is taken to glimpse the Light of the New Horizon.
The one who listens with charity recognizes the Law behind the words.
The one who has been touched by the breath of charity will be propelled by Me as a boat to a safe harbor.
The one who feels through charity takes up in himself or herself My Heart and there discovers a source of Mercy.
If you live in charity, you will live in Me. If you search in charity, you will find in Me.
If in charity you awaken, I will be a lighthouse on your way.
If you serve in charity, you will recognize My Light shining in the center of the afflicted hearts. If you follow Me in peace, My steps will become your way.
Piety, piety, piety.
