Enlightened Stories

Nineteen-year-old Mat Adam never expected his father's disappearance to uncover a world beyond the living. When a radiant mark known as the Seal of Light appears on his arm, Mat is thrust into the Astral Realm - a fragile land where dryads, sprites, and the last of the elves fight to survive. There, the fallen angel Casus Lucem, exiled from the higher realms, seeks to claim the island for himself using a forbidden weapon called the Kimera - a creation born from corrupted spirit energy. To rescue his father and others imprisoned within the Black Pillars, Mat must embrace the power that chose him, face the truth of his lineage, and stand between a fading light and the darkness determined to consume it.

This book dives into the eighth karmic law, showing how life constantly invites us to embody what we say we value. The Law of Giving & Hospitality teaches that it is not enough to speak of kindness, compassion, and truth-we must live them, moment by moment, in the way we treat others and the world. Every act of generosity, every offering of presence, and every alignment between belief and action creates ripples that echo throughout the universe. By practicing hospitality-not just as a gesture, but as a way of being-we discover that what we give out returns magnified, nurturing both ourselves and all of creation.

A short story about what I feel.

The world is big, perhaps it isn't. It's easy to open our eyes but not our minds. We are being manipulated and 'they' are limiting our human capabilities. Time will come that we'll all fall under a type of government established by the Enlightened Society. We're going to become puppets, slaves, people considered inferior. Only a few are able to comprehend and this few, are the only ones who can save the others. Sofia Alumbrado was a woman born into the Enlightened Society. She broke free after realizing what their true aim really is. She ran and fought just to inform the people but they came after her to keep her mouth shut. Little did they know that Sofia's discovery didn't die with her. She was clever enough to save it with her son, her one and only descendant, Caesar Alumbrado. Now it's up to him to continue what his mother started. All Rights Reserved.
