Friends, this night (from the 15th to the 16th), we did not sleep, observing Shiva's night. I entered into practice and asked about this festival.

“What do you want to tell me, Shiva, tonight?”
“See these peach blossoms? They bloom together. Because each of them is ready to meet its spring. Because it is laid within them, deep inside. So why do you doubt your unity when your true path outlines common ideas of the soul’s ascent?
Come into unity not from the stance of ‘it’s easier this way,’ but from the stance of a life credo — that is different.
In the first case you humble yourselves by choosing the easy way; in the second, you recognize the significance of this event for your Soul’s mission.
“What does this night mean for everyone, Shiva, tell me?”
“It is a night of great service to humanity, an awareness of your place of power.
Each of you has your own place of power: for some it is family, for others a vocation that inspires, for a third — intentions.
All these places of power smolder in your soul, helping you rise to the highest point, so that from there you can see all that splendor, that beauty, that coordinated, harmonious play
which you will see and accept, step by step making decisions through which
revelations will pour, encompassing new expanses and calling them forth.
This is a Night of the destruction of illusions, of illusory notions not only about the world but about yourselves, first and foremost.
A night of teachings and revelations of the soul’s potential for everyone who wishes to see themselves through the eyes of truth.
You all cannot become one when you think only of yourselves. One is unity. This is not about loneliness at all, but about unity.
Unity of interests, unity of views, ideas, intentions, visions, unity of the path that calls to the fulfillment of the great mystery of each soul’s destiny.
And on this night not hundreds of lanterns were lit, but hundreds of souls who with their own eyes desired to un-see the falsehood — the truth that they had once closed their eyes to.”
