Being wants to take hold of you
Let us go to the One who blesses, the Creator, our Heavenly Father. Look, He gave you your personality. Therefore, you cannot be small, there is no such thing as little man because everyone is from the Creator, from His hand. God does not do small things but great things. That is why you are marvelous.
Now allow Divine Love to enter you, to infuse you with God’s dignity. Just remember: God, you created me, I am your work, I came out of your heart.
Then see if your conscience is wounded, if you feel guilty, if you feel that you can never be forgiven for something, if you do not know how to forgive.
Look inside yourself. Is your conscience free, does it praise you or scold you? There is no man who has not hurt his conscience, who has not felt guilt, there is no man who does not sin. But all your sins are just dirt and as soon as you say, ‘God I’m sorry’, you are washed, clean and innocent.
Watch the blood of Jesus wash you, watch as if you are in the shower, watch the angels take off your old, dirty, torn clothes and garments and put on clean, new ones. Fear no more, Jesus frees you from guilt, Jesus takes away your sin, Jesus is your freedom, he is the only man in the human history on whom you can rely entirely. Where He is, you will be as soon as you call upon Him. As soon as you say, “Jesus”, you are where He is and He looks after you.
Then see if your intellect is perhaps so wounded that you cannot even know God properly, you do not understand philosophical concepts, you do not see wholeness, you do not understand morality. Let Jesus, as the supreme hagioassistant, pour new intelligence into you.
Allow the intelligence of God to enter your intellect from the Being, from the transcendental, from the Truth, so that you can know and accept the Truth.
Now look at your consciousness. Do you forget easily? Do you remember a sermon you heard in church? How much have you learned in life and forgotten? We live only semi- consciously and it is a disease. How can we treat it? Simply.
Remember that Being is supreme consciousness, that Jesus is supreme consciousness. Enter that existence called Being and look at everything that exists as a whole, as if you were suddenly seeing all seven billion people, the entire globe, the entire universe and the Creator. Let that wholeness enter you.
Then look at your organ of freedom. Remember, freedom is the ability to do and live well. Look at how much evil you have said, thought and heard from people so far. Then look at how many fears you carry within you. Fear kills freedom, and freedom is Being.
Being is life and it can never be ruined, let alone destroyed by anyone. As soon as you absorb that Being as a magnificent and absolute Person, then you heal your freedom.
Every negative thought and wish, word, and especially deed kills you as a person, your body, even your psyche, but most of all you as man. Therefore, sin is not something that offends God, but sin kills you, destroys you, and that is why God is not pleased when you sin, because He created you and wants you to be happy, and you make yourself unhappy. It is like when a mother gets angry with a child if he takes or touches something that could harm him. That is how our God is. God is not angry because you sin and offend him, but because you kill yourself.
He loves you; he wants you to be healthy and happy. therfore, go to that wonderful Being and say, “Yes, I want to be free.”
Freedom is the ability to think, speak and do good. Every negative thought, word, every sin and evil destroy freedom, takes away your ability to be free. That is how you become an addict because you no longer have freedom, but evil has taken root in you.
So go to supreme freedom, go to Being. Realize that Being is a person. Bow deeply to Him, open the door of Being and enter Goodness, Truth, Beauty and say, “Life begins now, freedom begins now, I decide only for good, only for light, only for Truth, only for Love.”

His special field of interest is the study of man’s existential-spiritual dimension, where he discovers the way of modern evangelization and the necessity of the development of spiritual medicine, which, along with somatic and psychological, is indispensable in the complete healing of man, especially in the healing of spiritual diseases and addictions. For this purpose, he developed the method of hagiotherapy and founded in 1990 in Zagreb the Center for Spiritual Help, of which he is the head.
