These words awaken strength and joy, encourage one to change oneself in order to become better! “And this happens to people, because Olav teaches them a different attitude to life, gives them hope, a goal! For everyone - he finds special words that are necessary specifically for that person. “He is not a healer, but for some reason even people’s illnesses leave, if one were to be next to him! Here, for example, Roon, the skald-boy, - he was so weak! But after a few months’ journey together with Olav - he became as you saw him! “And then, Olav found me - and he changed all this! Next to him - my life again made sense! I became needed - and as though youth and vigor had returned! Even eyesight had improved! There was only one dream: to die in native lands or at sea, but not in a foreign land, where I looked with disgust at everything that surrounded me. “I already thought that my destiny is nearing completion and that everything of me is now in my past. “You asked, how I saved Olav’s life… But Olav, too, saved me! Saved - not from death, but from what is worse than death: from the slow, senseless fading of everything in my life… … Vagni told Annika a lot about what he remembered. He rushed to defend those who, in his opinion, were unjustly offended… And he was not afraid of anything!” “Yes, he was not the same as everyone else - even from childhood. “Tell me about him - at least something else! I’m so interested!” “Olav said that you knew him as a boy and that you saved his life twice.

I myself did not dare to ask you about this! After many years of life in foreign lands, I so did not want to leave these places again, just after I returned! When Olav told him about this, Vagni sighed happily: “But who can be left? Of course, any of the team would carry out this assignment, but, perhaps, only Vagni could agree to this with joy…” “One who lovingly assists others in spiritual growth - that one finds special assistance of the Creator in his or her personal development.”īefore going on the way, Olav was thinking about who would be best to stay here, next to Annika, - for her safety. “People can help each other and other embodied beings in this Evolutionary Process! “But the Ocean of the Universal Divine Consciousness expects and accepts the infusion into It of Those Souls Who have advanced to the Perfection - because His Infinite Vastness consists precisely of such ‘Drops’ replenishing It. And the ocean becomes more by… a whole drop… “Water drop acquires involvement in the power of the ocean, merging with the integrity of the entire ocean. “If the soul has become Love, similar in quality to the Ocean of Divine Consciousness, then this Great Ocean replenishes Itself with such souls! “But - human life can become very significant!

And it is obligatory - to return to its Gardener good results! “Incarnate people can learn to love their younger brothers and sisters in plant and animal bodies. “The way of every soul is long - even before birth in the human body. “God is like the Great Gardener, nurturing souls!
