The Bhi Jinah
by Franco Santoro
According to the Epic of the Sacred Cone, Bhi Jinah are strategic
beings that populate the gaps among the forms seen by ordinary human beings.
They dwell in areas commonly defined as nothing, empty or vacuum. Their aim
is of drawing the attention to the fullness of such nothingness and making
human beings aware of the connection and unity that exists among everyone and
everything. Bhi Jinah are a sort of spiritual glue that joins all fragmented
parts. They constitute the linking agent of the web of life. Bhi Jinah
operate as a primordial ocean that keeps whatever exists together. Their role
is essential in all kinds of relationship. If partners are aware of such
beings and encourage them to join in their relationship, ecstatic shifts can
happen. To perceive Bhi Jinah, the only condition is that of accepting to see
them and letting go of the hallucination of separation. Certain conditions or
practices easily enhance this process. I usually experience Bhi Jinah as
living joyful puppets or cartoons of different forms and size. Most of them
wear a conic hat and also, at times, a tea-shirt with a cone printed on it. I
often see them smiling and having fun. At times, depending on the sector they
belong to and the situation of their environment, they can also be rather
noisy and restless. Besides Bhi Jinah, there are also other beings too, such
as Graha, Sadoha, Paheka, etc. Well, I am not going into these now.... One
thing to keep in mind is that all I see is the result of what I have chosen
to see. Bhi Jinah have taught me this lesson. If I look around, I can notice
that the majority of the spaces that I see are apparently empty and not
occupied by forms. Actually, from a spiritual perspective as well as from a
scientific view, nothing is really empty or meaningless. It is just the
conventional mind that accepts seeing only what supports its idea of reality
and refuses to acknowledge what would threaten it. This is the reason why Bhi
Jinah are not usually seen: they would virtually blow up the entire
foundation of the consensus perception.
Since I was a child I would notice things and beings that my parents,
relatives and whoever was around me did not appear to see. At the beginning I
was sure that, as I was just a small boy, they would shut me up or pretend
that such things did not exist simply because it was a matter for adult
people only. I felt that such mysteries were kept secret on purpose and
disclosed only when one was of age. There were many things that could only be
done after reaching the age of 18, like driving a car, voting, getting
married, being allowed to watch certain movies, etc. Thus, I thought that
receiving direct information about Bhi Jinah or other beings and also about
my true purpose in this world was only a question of becoming of age. On my
18th birthday I envisaged that a special authority would arrange a meeting
for me. There I would go, accompanied by my parents, and all the secrets of
life would be revealed to me. I just had to be patient and wait. In the
meantime, I could relax and be with the boys of my age. Frankly this was not
an ideal situation for these fellows did not seem to show much interest on
the above issues and would rather involve themselves with weird activities
(such as soccer, basketball, motorcycles, etc.) in which I could hardly
understand the sense. The only exception was a small group of friends who
lived in my block at via Oslavia 5 in Bologna. I used to play one of my
favourite games with them. It was about sitting together on a low window sill
and pretending to be aboard a big starship moving into space. That was so
exciting! Actually my understanding of the whole building was that it was
indeed a starship. For me it was not a fiction, but a rare occasion in which
I could share my perception of life. Hence it did not make any sense to stop
the game, forget all about it and start deeds like homework, going to school,
visiting relatives, etc. I would try hard and do such things only to be
entitled to adulthood, and to the supposed revelation of all secrets. At
last, when I was alone, I could eventually enjoy the starship and company of
Bhi Jinah without any limitation. I would spend long hours talking to those
beings, drawing maps of stars and planets, holding meetings with the starship
crew, etc. So as not to create suspects in adult people, I would pretend to
do my homework or to play with some silly toys. I was very intrigued by Bhi
Jinah and similar topics, and would often ask questions to my parents. They
would reply giving queer explanations or saying that I had to wait until I
grew older. As a result I used to listen with much interest to my
parents’ conversations with their adult relatives and friends. What
they said was gibberish to me, especially when my mother spoke the Bologna
dialect with her relatives or my father the Sicilian dialect with his. When I
heard such discussions, I was sure that they were about the issues I was
craving to have explanations about. Hence I was really looking forward to
becoming an adult. The first step, I was told, consisted of going to school
and studying hard. My parents kept repeating it. One day they also explained
that in their times they could not go to school for their families were very
poor and also because of the war. They said “Franco, our parents could
not afford to send us to school. We have worked since we were young and
cannot provide the answers you ask. Yet, we are going to do the best for you
so that you can study and get to know all you want”. How honest of
them to admit that! I realised that I could not expect my parents to teach me
certain things. Yet I would have learned them at school. When eventually my
school years began, I was quite disappointed to realise that nobody would
really care about Bhi Jinah and alike. I thought that perhaps it was a matter
for more advanced schools. I looked forward to stepping into secondary school
and university. When I did, I was even more dissatisfied and frustrated. I
have no words to describe the pain, confusion and isolation experienced in my
school years. I was puzzled about what was going on. The things I was
required to study did not make any sense to me, although they appeared
valuable for others At the same time what made sense for me did not seem to
make any sense to others. Only years later, through the connection with my
Spirit Guide, I began to get the first answers to my questions. Much to my
amazement they did not come from school, parents, relatives or religious or
state authorities. I had a first major glimpse of them in 1976. It is a long
story and I am still putting it together. Upon looking back at my life now, I
can only rejoice at the fact that my past is now making a lot of sense. I
regard it as part of a comprehensive set of lessons that I have chosen to
receive. Thank you Bhi Jinah. Thank you Spirit Guide. Thank you beloved
parents and all my relationships at all possible levels!
