"They then serve as a covering for our King, our Intimate Christ. Christ rises from His sepulcher in the instant in which this type of covering exists. He covers himself anew with it so that He may manifest Himself here, through the senses, in order to work for this suffering humanity. This is how the Lord comes to life."

Tired of living for millions of years, it decided to make a nest with the branches of incense, myrrh, spikenard and other beautiful branches, and the truth is that she burned herself there.
Nature is always like that. But then the Phoenix Bird was reborn from her own ashes, much more powerful.
Likewise, it is necessary to perform the Great Work because when the Stone is thrown into the water, it remains drowned.
