Charms of a Woman: True Stories and Reflections

By Predrag Nikolic

"The moment when this beautiful and attractive girl ran next to this congregation seemed like eternity. Time was simply stopped. Appearance of that goddess penetrated deeply to the core of participants of eminent congregation. The priests secretly crossed themselves asking God for forgiveness because of outbursts of physical passion and lusty desires in their holiness. The lower jaw of one of politicians suddenly became loose so his mouth remained wide opened. A famous scientist took of his thick glasses and suddenly regained his sight. A musician had never heard a more beautiful melody of laugh a sportsman had never seen more perfect movement of a body and soul"

"The infinite purity and power of the Word had gone to forgotten legends out of which only some fragments are preserved. What remained in people is only some primordial connection which in certain moments evokes longing, presage and even faith that there is something. That longing and presage touches some of us. It transfixes and even burns, mimicking our intuition and our most secret and delicate bonds with something primordial".

In the beginning was the Word John 1:1


"We used to exchange literature about herbs and read about famous herbalists such as Mauricie Messegue who cured Churchil in his time or about Jova from Romania mountain who healed the wounds of Kitty Swan whose face was burnt in the fire. After the treatment with Jova’s balms her face was believe in the healing and beneficial powers of plants"

A HERBALIST WOMAN


“The woman said all this calmly with longing in her eyes, and it was like the cry for the 25 years of hoping and dreaming about the happy future.
I followed up to her sadness and asked her which film depicts the incredible speed of the transience of life.
As if someone had whispered to her, she answered: “Gone with the Wind.”

CHARMS OF A WOMAN

On the shore of infinitely calm and spring clear sea

the reputable meeting was held.

In the shadow of three palms a huge oak table of oval

shape was placed. With its heaviness it simply sank

into hot sea sand, and its stability and impressive size

caused reverence while the members of the

congregation around it brought about admiration.

At such a beautiful place the wisest heads of this

society got together. In a word everything seemed

elevated.

On the table there were many papers and books with

lots of ideas, theories and wisdom.

Scientists, priests, philosophers, artists, politicians,

businessmen, novelists, mathematicians, physicists,

biologists, musicians, astronomers, astrologers, the

Indian clairvoyants, gurus and sportsmen al sat next

to each other.

Oh dear Lord what amazing miracle happened when

they had started presenting their theories, fiery

advocacy, justification and verification; air, sand and

the sea became satiated with such a quantity of

wisdom. It seemed at that moment that the birds in

the air, fish in the water and puppies on the sand

became enlightened.

The discussion became more and more fiery as the

number of competing theories increased.

The priests claimed that God had created the world,

the scientists talked about big explosion and the

biologists supported the theory of evolution and the

philosophers claimed that the world had not been

created at any time or any place and that it also

wouldn’t not disappear at any time or any place. The

gurus stil meditated without a discussion.

The businessmen negotiated with the priests how

much it would cost that God created one world for

them. They would pay fair because money is not the

question. The astronomers and the astrologers

looked at the sky looking for true answers. The

novelists tried to convince the musicians that in the

beginning there was a word and the musicians were

convinced that in the beginning was just a sound. The

big guru could not remain silent. He supported a

musician claiming that the base of the entire universe

were the eternal OM or AUM, the sum of all sounds

produced in the universe. He wasn’t sure only

whether OM had been music or strengthening of the

universe.

On the other side of the table there was a bitter

debate between supporters of evolution, the

geneticists and the Indian clairvoyants.

A geneticist chose theory of evolution swearing in

genetic code. According to his opinion only amoeba

wil be created from another amoeba, an elephant

wil never be created from a hen and a man won’t be

created from a monkey. Every species has a strict

genetic code and things are clear about it. Conditions

of environment, nutrition and others can influence

that the hen becomes smal er or bigger , in different

colors and lengths of feathering but it will always be

just a
