C\u0103ci vezi bine c\u0103 nici Policlet cu penelul, nici Fidias cu dalta, nici Arhimede cu compasul \u0219i nici to\u021bi ceilal\u021bi, ne\u00eenarma\u021bi, nu se puteau ap\u0103ra \u00eempotriva acelor oameni \u00eendr\u0103zne\u021bi, \u00eenarma\u021bi \u0219i deprin\u0219i cu r\u0103zboiul \u0219i cu uciderea.

Dar eu, h\u0103r\u021buit\u0103 \u0219i persecutat\u0103 astfel, c\u00e2nd mi-am mai venit pu\u021bin \u00een fire, m-am hot\u0103r\u00e2t s\u0103 urc aici sus pentru a m\u0103 pl\u00e2nge atotputernicului \u0219i dreptului Jupiter. Am urcat, dup\u0103 cum vezi, \u0219i fie l\u0103udat. De o lun\u0103 \u00eentreag\u0103 a\u0219tept s\u0103 m\u0103 duc\u0103 cineva \u00een\u0103untru \u0219i nu am \u00eencetat s\u0103 rog pe to\u021bi cei ce vin \u0219i pleac\u0103 s\u0103-mi mijloceasc\u0103 o scurt\u0103 audien\u021b\u0103, dar mereu primesc c\u00e2te o scuz\u0103 drept r\u0103spuns. Uneori mi se spune c\u0103 Zeii sunt ocupa\u021bi, ba cu a face ca dovlecii s\u0103 \u00eenfloreasc\u0103 la vremea potrivit\u0103, ba cu a face ca to\u021bi fluturii s\u0103 se nasc\u0103 cu aripile bine pictate. De aceea, o, Mercur, tu care e\u0219ti principalul mesager al Zeilor, te rog \u0219i te implor, nu o dat\u0103, ci de multe ori, s\u0103 \u00eembr\u0103\u021bi\u0219ezi aceast\u0103 cauz\u0103 a mea, at\u00e2t de dreapt\u0103 \u0219i de cinstit\u0103; te fac c\u0103petenie \u0219i ap\u0103r\u0103tor al ei. Te implor s\u0103 o accep\u021bi; \u00een tine mi-am pus n\u0103dejdea; nu m\u0103 dispre\u021bui, c\u0103ci dac\u0103 voi, Zeii, m\u0103 ve\u021bi dispre\u021bui at\u00e2t de ru\u0219inos, oamenii \u00eemi vor pierde respectul, \u0219i chiar pentru colegiul Zeilor va fi pu\u021bin\u0103 cinste s\u0103 \u00eeng\u0103duie ca ace\u0219ti omule\u021bi, chiar dac\u0103 a\u0219 fi cea mai umil\u0103 dintre zeit\u0103\u021bi, s\u0103 m\u0103 pre\u021buiasc\u0103 at\u00e2t de pu\u021bin \u00eenc\u00e2t s\u0103 fac\u0103 din mine batjocura despre care \u021bi-am vorbit.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00censeamn\u0103 c\u0103, \u00eentr-adev\u0103r, for\u021bele divine se afl\u0103 ne\u00eencetat \u00een lupt\u0103 cu faptele omene\u0219ti. Din acest motiv ne este \u00eenf\u0103\u021bi\u0219at, \u00een mod poetic, Zeul Mercur \u00eentr-un dialog cu VIRTUTEA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Evident, ea, Virtutea, este adesea dispre\u021buit\u0103 de egocentrismul omenesc \u0219i ponegrit\u0103 p\u00e2n\u0103 la epuizare. Ea, Virtutea, ca parte sacr\u0103 a propriei noastre FIIN\u021aE, se vede nevoit\u0103 s\u0103-\u0219i caute locul \u00een spa\u021biul nostru sufletesc \u0219i, \u00een mod curios, c\u00e2nd ni se spune c\u0103 MERCUR este mesagerul Zeilor, este pentru c\u0103, \u00een adev\u0103r, MERCURUL nostru, energia noastr\u0103 creatoare, este singura energie care poate s\u0103 ne pun\u0103 \u00een contact cu Zeii \u0219i cu p\u0103r\u021bile sacre ale propriei noastre FIIN\u021aE, aduc\u00e2ndu-ne echilibru animic \u0219i psihic. De aceea, virtu\u021bile se hr\u0103nesc din MERCURUL \u00eensu\u0219i. Acolo unde nu exist\u0103 Mercur, abund\u0103 doar violen\u021ba, pedanteria, batjocura fa\u021b\u0103 de ceea ce este virtuos, abandonul animic etc., etc., etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jupiter \u00eendepline\u0219te aici rolul FIIN\u021aEI noastre \u0219i \u00eel vedem bucur\u00e2ndu-se de frumuse\u021be, de pace, de tot ceea ce ne aduce lumin\u0103 \u0219i Con\u0219tiin\u021b\u0103.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
