Ilie Cioara - This priceless virtue



"Virtue is that quality of our being which ensues spontaneously when a climate of harmony and psychological equilibrium envelops our whole being. Only when the “ego” is silent, as it has humbly understood its inability to encounter Reality, in the empty space, a new state of consciousness appears, boundless, uncontaminated by the residues of time. In this state of pure energy, virtue is revealed as sacredness, defining itself as absolute morality.

Therefore, this wonderful quality has nothing in common with the thinking activity. Our whole past, recorded in the memory and preserved as a treasure of knowledge, of the known, of past experiences does not intervene in any way in this discovery.

On the contrary, when everything is silent and still, then and only then, the Sacred from the depth of our being is able to reveal Its divine reality. And It reveals Itself fully, through this quality of unconventional ethics. In fact, it encompasses a bouquet of qualities of the Sacred, such as: Love, beauty, kindness, honesty, humbleness etc. which are incomparable to the relative qualities within the limited dimension.

The virtue we refer to reveals itself by itself only when we have understood our limitedness and we have experienced the “psychological void”. In this state, our being is absorbed by Infinity, overwhelming us with Its priceless gifts; among them, this priceless virtue."
