The following story which I read was on a maiden scattering the Host’s body over her vegetable garden! How utterly crude and devious that maiden ought to be. But the devil has entered her body ever since that unfortunate event. It is likely that the forces that are not in our hands are also looking over and controlling the common peoples. The girl even said: ‘I! Who cared more for my garden than for the sacrament!’ The devil is in her body now she suffers for the mistakes and irresponsible thinking behind the acts of her deeds. The monk that was asked of was said to believe that: ‘Let those who employ the divine sacrament for temporal gain, or what is more execrable, for evil-doing, give heed to this punishment, even if they do not consider the sinfulness.’ It is good news that reaches our ears when we have such learned representatives and followers of the church to behold our faith and sayings among the common peoples. Let those great followers be blessed.
Another encounter I bestowed upon randomly was of this man who told me the story of the bees that have built a miniature church, complete with foundations, bases and columns. The man told me that originally all of those talented bees have belonged to another evil man that only was tempted on fool’s gold and thereby committing sins of injustice among his neighbours all his bees have left and chosen the path of God therefore using their skill to make a fantastic miniature church.
Also over the past few years the outbreaks of several relics have been going on. Are they real or is it just a fake? Several relics include the Head of John the Baptist, the Shroud of Turin, the relics of St. Martin and many more. But all of these relics have no history, no story of origin and how the beholder of whatever relic got it in the first place. These relics are really not real as nothing could prove that it is real and not any other ordinary item, some are even paying cartloads of money to get hold of one of these relics. But all of these relics fake or not, still show the utter devotion of the martyrs and the Saviour, of the common peoples.
I have also heard of the Your Holiness’s doing with the Albigensies, such crazy heretics. In not believing the faith of transubstantiation and that the body was made by the devil but the soul is made by the Saviour. They do not believe in going to the Church to pray as they believe it is not a daily necessity. But we should lead those confused people and tell them the True Way in which one should be able to live their life all-knowing real God and that He watches over us all. But they have endured severe persecutions to look forward to the glory of the spirit says the monk who was questioned by a fellow novice… When the crusaders came to the city of Beziers they laid siege on it as it contained several heretics living among the city. But the crusaders discovered that there were Catholics in the city mingled with the heretics. They killed them all for fear of heretics saying that they were Catholics so they would not be killed. The abbot just said, ‘Kill them all for the Lord knoweth them that are His’ so all hundred thousand men in the city were killed. During the Albigensian heresy, the same event happened in Paris. The old and intellectual men believed in no Paradise of hell, denied transubstantiation and believed that the Saviour was in all bread and denied the resurrection of the body. Such wild beliefs were all met with bodies burning at the stake.
Such is the tortures that are given to whomever stands in the way of the Church. But are we really supposed to be killing all these people, giving them indescribable amounts of pain? Church and the papacy have the aim to be the direct connection to God and to teach the Way to those heretics and common peoples. Is it really necessary for the Church to oblige with such violent methods of spreading God’s words?
In conclusion the lands are all good; Your Holiness is doing a wonderful job keeping the lands controlled and spreading the word of God. Several of the common people make more stories related to God. But I’m begging you to be more merciful to the heretics, such confused people shouldn’t be dealt with such pain but instead be merciful like our Saviour and try to show them the way instead of terrorising them to make them realise the necessities and values that we should follow, we’re all human beings in the end with families and loved ones.
Other than that, everyone is devoted to Christ and His ways.
Thank Your Holiness for letting me go on this devoted pilgrimage,
Your forever faithful servant,
Henry de Silva.
