[I could not climb the mountain because I was not the path]
[After I put in nothing, nothing I lack]
[The foremost want what is]
[For when you want something you have not put all your treasure in God] "The soul that God wants to give you everything, has to deliver all, leaving nothing for himself." (Said 132 )
2. NADA = WALKING IN THE NIGHT
"We call this evening to the deprivation of taste in the appetite of all things, because, just as night is nothing but deprivation light, and the consequent, of all objects that can be seen through the light, which remains the power of sight in the dark with nothing, so you can say appetite mortification night for the soul because, like depriving the soul of appetite in all things, is to stay as dark and nothing. For as the power of sight by the light builds up and feeds the objects that can be seen, and turned off the light does not come, so the soul through appetite and fattening feeds all things according to their powers can be like, who also turned off, or I should say, mortified, feed the soul leaves the taste of all things, and so remains as appetite in the dark with nothing. " (1 st Book of the Ascent, 3, 1)
3. IF YOU KNOW ANYTHING =
"Where the truth that the soul did not know before, of their misery, because at the time who was like a party, finding pleasure in God, comfort, and came over and got a bit more satisfied happy, thinking that something was serving God. For this, though I expressly did not take itself, at least in the satisfaction is in the taste suits you all about that and I put in this other work clothes, dry and helplessness, obscured its first light, it more really is so excellent and necessary basis of knowledge own, not [be] taking in anything, or having any other satisfaction, because he sees that, in itself, does nothing or can do nothing. " (1 N 12, 2)
4. NOTHING: HOW TO BE THE ALMA
"Therefore, in this way the path is left into your path, or, rather, is to go to term, and let it go its own way as not thus God is, because the soul that reaches this state, has no modes or manners, no less clings can not grab them, I mean ways of understanding, or love, or feel, but contains in itself all modes , the mode that has nothing, who has everything, for having the courage to move from their limited interior and exterior natural, supernatural enters limit has no way, with substantially all modes. Where coming here is getting out of there, and here and there out of themselves too far, that's low for this particularly high. " (2 nd Book of the Ascent, 4, 5)
5 . NADA = POOR OF SPIRIT
"And know that will not have a feel more needs to hold the heart they please, for the poor in spirit in the decline is more steady and happy because he has put his all into nothingness at all, and well width is in all hearts. Blessed and happy hiding anything heart, which has so much value that holds everything, not wanting to hold anything for themselves and care for power burn losing more in love! " (Letter 16) .
6. NADA - DRESSING OF HOPE
"because this vegetable of living hope in God gives such a vivid and soul and lift up to things of eternal life, which, compared to the expected there, everything in the world will seems, as is the truth, dry, limp and dead and of no value. Here are naked and stripped of all those clothes and costumes of the world, not with your heart in anything or expecting anything of what is or is to be in it, living only dressed [for hope] of eternal life. Therefore, having risen as the heart of the world, not only can touch or grab the heart, but not catch sight of. " (2 N 21, 6)
7. LOVE KNOW NOTHING =
"The appetites and affections that here means the prophet renes, all are moved and move on divine in that inflammation of the heart and soul out of love solves anything, knowing nothing but love. And this time is the switching of these big renes manner of torment and longing to see God, therefore, that the soul seems unbearable rigor that she uses with love, not because there was hurt, because before she has the such wounds health but because the left and suffering in love, and not injured more bravely, just kill to see and join him in perfect love life. " (CB 1, 18)
8. NOTHING = NO WAY TO PREVENT THE ALL
"To come to taste it all,
not want to like anything.
To come to possess all,
not want to have anything at all.
To come to be everything,
not want to be something of nothing.
To come to know everything,
not want to know something about anything.
To come to not like you,
you must go where it likes.
To come to what we do not know,
you must go where you do not know.
To come what we do not have,
you must go where you do not have.
To come to what you are not,
you must go where there are
When repair for something,
stop throwing you to the whole. Because
to come completely to all of you
completely deny everything.
And when they come at all to have,
you want to have him with nothing.
Because, if you have something in everything you do not have pure
God your treasure .. "
(1 st Book of the Rise, 13.11 to 12)
9. NADA = MISS
"But when this divine light assails not so hard on the soul, or feel darkness, nor is light, and apprehends nothing she knows, from here nor there; and, therefore, remains the soul sometimes as large an oversight that neither knew where he was or what had been done, nor did she seem to have gone through time. Where can happen, and so, to spend many hours in that situation, and the soul, when he comes to, does not seem a moment or anything that was not .... Where the bride says in the Canticle (6.11), ..., this not knowing ... I did not know, whence though ..., the soul in this press release seems to do nothing or is employed in nothing because nothing works with the senses or the powers, believes he is wasting time, because although cessation the harmony of the powers of the soul, the intelligence of it is the way we said. " (2 S
14, 10-11)
