My Friend Steven

HELLO MY FELLOW FRIENDS & DEEPHOUSE LOVERS! Quite recently I got a letter from one very famous man with which I had to become acquainted on one of congresses on martial arts, which passed a few years back in Japan. On my enormous surprise, he did not not only renounce to have a talk with me but also told about many and many interesting things, touching both the applied aspects of martial arts and some spiritual practices which gave birth in the monasteries of India and Tibet. After it our roads divided, and a few years I for some reason not nearly reminisced it. However, as this man said me once, if you live and have spiritual hunger – that you live rightly – circumstances in my life were folded so, that I again reminisced him and simply wrote him a letter, not especially hoping on a reverse answer – even because after expiration of so protracted term of time he could it is simple to forget about me. A month passed however, two, and in one gloomy cold autumn morning I found out in the mailbox the whimsically decorated envelope with by a great number the semiworn out postal stamps – as appeared, on the way to me this letter rounded the half of earth almost. Below I will bring his fragment over: Hello Arthur! You are now in falling in to disappear, which does not have a bottom. The unique method not to lose itself and remain by itself in such situation is in a root to revise a look to surrounding reality and operate. To operate, even saving rest, even being in inaction. A way of strengthening of own body and rise of own spirit will be long, not simple and difficult. However as well as any Way Up, it can not be simple,easy and fast . Patience, faith and permanent practice, are basic instruments for your advancement on this stage. Now you have nowhere to hurry. Patience is needed in an order to continue practices and move upstairs constantly and purposefully. Your state of spirit in this not simple for you period must remind a little monastery, forgotten deeply in impassable mountains. Only complete distraction from temptations of outward things, and powerful internal concentration will help you not to lose this state and not hammered together from a correct way. Learn thinly to feel this state and always to be in him. State of dead certainty in itself and deep spiritual comfort. Faith your in your complete convalescence must be stronger than rocks which hundreds of years are ground smooth by beach-combers. Faith in itself must be yet stronger. It means that you must not lose feeling of internal force in circumstances which now seem to you insuperable foremost. Your primary purpose now is only one – to obtain an excellent physical health by all means. You must aim with might and main to it, not sparing itself not in the least degree, not indulging even to the least temptations. Results will be not immediately, but will be necessarily. Not despair. A way to real Force always lies through loneliness and darkness. Your personal internal force, faith and strength of mind, and also it will be helped to choose your heart you faithful way and to overcome all difficulties, arising up on him, masterly and with honour. Be always faithful itself and you will be always quiet and strong! I sincerely trust that you will be able to score a success on your difficult, but necessary and respected business. With King regards, your Friend and Teacher Steven Seagal. T R A C K L I S T 1. Natural noise of nightly steppe nearby the mountains of Chzhe Goang 2. David Parsons – K2 3.
