About this deal

Jesus said: 'Let your word be "Yes, yes" or "No, no".' When the warrior takes on a commitment, he keeps his word. Those who make promises they do not keep lose their self-respect and feel ashamed of their actions. These people spend their lives in constant flight; they expend far more energy on coming up with a whole series of excuses to unsay what they said than the warrior of light does in honouring his commitments. Sometimes he too takes on some foolish commitment which will in some way harm him. He does not repeat this mistake, but he nevertheless keeps his word and pays the price for his own impulsiveness. A Warrior of Light values a child's eyes because they are able to look at the world without bitterness. When he wants to find out if the person beside him is worthy of his trust, he tries to see him as a child would." Sometimes, in the middle of an apparently endless battle, the warrior has an idea and he manages to triumph in a matter of seconds. Then he thinks: 'Why did I labour for so long over a battle that could have been resolved with only half the energy I spent on it?' The truth is that all problems seem very simple once they have been resolved. The great victory, which appears so simple today, was the result of a series of small victories that went unnoticed. Then the warrior understands what happened and he sleeps easy. Far from blaming himself for having taken so long to arrive, he is simply glad to know that he did arrive in the end.

A warrior knows that his best teachers are the people with whom he shares the battlefield. It is dangerous to ask for advice. It is even more dangerous to give advice. When he needs help, he tries to see how his friends resolve - or fail to resolve - their problems. If he is in search of inspiration, he reads on the lips of his neighbour the words that his guardian angel is trying to say to him. When he is tired or lonely, he does not dream about distant men and women; he turns to the person beside him and shares his sorrow or his need for affection with them - with pleasure and without guilt. A warrior knows that the farthest-flung star in the Universe reveals itself in the things around him. Paulo Coelho μαζεύει ψήγματα πίστης και αγάπης για να γίνει καλύτερη η καθημερινότητά μας και να βρούμε το φως που υπάρχει μέσα μας. The warrior of light knows how to lose. He does not treat defeat as if it were a matter of indifference to him, saying things like 'Oh, it doesn't matter' or 'To be honest, I didn't really want it that much', He accepts defeat as defeat and does not try to make a victory out of it. Painful wounds, the indifference of friends, the loneliness of losing - all leave a bitter taste. But at these times, he says to himself: 'I fought for something and did not succeed. I lost the first battle.' These words give him renewed strength. He knows that no one wins all the time and he knows how to distinguish his successes from his failures.

Manual of the Warrior of Light - Paulo Coelho - Google Books

Karen Heller, Meet the writers who still sell millions of books. Actually, hundreds of millions, The Washington Post The warrior of light must always remember the five rules of combat, set down by Chuan Tzu three thousand years ago: Faith Before going into battle, you must believe in the reasons for the fight. Companions Choose your allies and learn to fight in company, for no one ever won a war single-handed. Time A battle in winter is different from a battle in summer; a good warrior is careful to select the right moment to begin a fight. Space One does not fight in the same way in a mountain pass as one would on a plain. Think about your surroundings and how best to move around in them. Strategy The best warrior is the one who plans his fight.In the intervals between battles, the warrior rests. Often he spends whole days doing nothing, because that is what his heart demands; but his intuition remains alert. He does not commit the capital sin of Sloth, because he knows where that can lead - to the warm monotony of Sunday afternoons when time simply passes. The warrior calls this 'the peace of the cemetery'. He remembers a passage from Revelation: 'I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot... So then because thou art lukewarm and neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of my mouth.' A warrior rests and laughs. But he is always alert. Many months passed; the woman did not return and the boy forgot all about her; now he was convinced that he needed to discover the riches and treasures in the submerged temple. If he could hear the bells, he would be able to locate it and salvage the treasure hidden below. The Warrior looks at the column of Fear, where he reads: “you are about to enter an unknown and dangerous world where all that you have learned up to now will be of no use whatsoever.”
