For several years I had been planning to write a book about Medjugorje and the Secrets of Medjugorje, but I hesitated to do so. Usually when you have a strong urge to write you indulge, especially those who, like me until now, usually write fiction books like me, but I postponed, I wanted to address this topic and at the same time I was running away from it.
One day Padre Pio appeared to me in a dream and told me "So, Guagliò?! Do we want to write this book or not?" And I answered him: "It's OK, Father, but then to whom do I propose it?" His gaze became sharp, acute, as if he wanted to read inside me, inside my inner feelings. "What you want to make known you can make known, you choose the way". Now, far from wanting to see in this a divine imperative, the anointing of the Lord, I simply took this dream as a good omen, as an incentive to want to convey what I know, what I have accumulated in my core on this subject, including the doubts and reservations of friends, but also and above all to share the treasures that are available to all, and give an answer to certain doubts and concerns. I have always known that these remain dead letters, and since the answer was often and is still close to our hands, but it was not written anywhere, I felt almost obliged to write this essay.
However, I do not want to make any demands, but that the reader creates his own conscience, assimilates what I write and then elaborates freely. I chose to publish it in this way, on certain platforms, because I believe that even the most sincere and profound books on the subject of Marian Apparitions, La Salette, Lourdes, Fatima, Medjugorje and much more, are affected by convenience and opportunity.
I needed to write about these topics in absolute freedom, without being bound to any scheme, to any file where you check alternative boxes to the others. Not that I had to propose some bizarre things, but if it is true that the truth makes free, that the truth manifests its radiant beauty, perhaps in a gradual way, it is also true that to do so it is necessary to have freedom, the possibility and in case also the courage to reveal it. The truth brings with it inconveniences, even if its fruits are luxuriant, which is why Sister Lucy, revealing the Secrets of Fatima, always had an attitude suspended between obedience, silence and irrepressible impulse. Prophecy, truth and knowledge burn within the mystical soul and demand that they be revealed in all their magnificence.
Our Lady has a clear plan for the life of the living, for our planet, it is necessary that more people really know what future awaits us, what challenges lie ahead in the immediate horizon. We are living particular but also exciting times, and this is therefore a circumstance, a fortune and a 'misfortune' in some ways. We are and will be pioneers of a new world.
In the essay, which is also a guide to the new times, my wish is that everyone can find ideas, reflections, but above all, even a clear and concrete information, that can be a path to follow, with both your heart and your mind. In fact, then I had many things to say, to express, to reveal. At a certain point, all this made a critical mass, and I found it burning inside me, like a torch, or, in other words, I had to empty that sack that I was carrying on me, because humanity must know, or rather, a part of the people to whom this book can say a lot or a little, must know our times and those that are at the gates as they really will be, to the extent that we are allowed.
Christian culture does not have a cryptic connotation, but demands that everything has to be in the public domain, therefore emerging from the shadows. Of course, sometimes with reasons of opportunity that mark the timing, but there is nothing that is or that exists that should not be revealed. Is with this anxiety of the heart, as those of who wants to communicate a new discovery to the world, that I invite you to read this book.
