This modest website is a wholehearted—posthumous?—homage offered by his disciples to our beloved master, Sri Rabbi Mercurius Azulai de la Cruz.

Hereby his disciples thought this could be of a great contribution to humanity, and entrusted me with trembling awe with the responsability of gathering his sayings, our testimonies and such writings of his as could be preserved. We’ve considered this work to be but a small grain, perhaps capable of further guiding the path of the sons of our age amid the troubled times through which we find ourselves passing.

Of him very little can be said with certainty. Some say he was a disciple of Sri Rama Maharshi and the Chafetz Haym, others he learned from Mother Theresa of Calcuta, Mahatma Ghandi and Shushani; still some others say he is self-thaught into the mysteries of God and Nature. Some say he was born in India, Spain or Mexico; don’t even ask about his date of birth.

What those of us who knew him can attest is this: his life and teachings inspired us to love more and more freely, to be more flexible and less attached to the labels we regard ourselves to be and to be more open to joy and to be surprised by the unexpected and the unassaible mystery of existence.

With no further ado here we will be presenting his sayings, writings, and our insufficient testimonies that couldn’t make no justice of his greatness and joy, his child-like innocence and curiosity and the seriousness he attended the affairs of love.

Faithful to his spirit and instruction, he enjoined us to articulate what we had learned in our own voice; hence, what follows also gathers fragmentary reflections from those within his circle.
