Dante’s Divine Surfing Comedy – By Dante Alighieri
A celestial journey through the surging seas of Paradiso
Salutations, fine dwellers of the earthly realm! I, Dante Alighieri, who once traversed the realms infernal and celestial, have now embarked upon a new odyssey — that of riding the divine waves. Whilst I was once a sojourner of the ethereal heavens and the infernal abysses, I have descended once more to unite with mortals and partake in the delightful diversion known as surfing.
First Encounter with the Divine Waves
When first I lay my eyes upon the swelling seas and the surfers dancing upon the waves like celestial beings, my soul was aflame with longing. The azure sea, reminiscent of the heavenly spheres, called to me, and with trembling hands, I mounted my first board.
Oh, what comedy ensued! The sea, so akin to the unpredictable circles of Hell, tossed me hither and thither, yet I was determined to unite with the divine waves. A symphony of laughter rang from the shore, a harmonious echo of the celestial music of the spheres. Finally, with Beatrice’s unseen hand guiding me, I found myself riding the divine waves, achieving a harmonious union with the swirling seas, a joy unknown to me since my celestial journey.
Values of Surfing: A Celestial Alignment
Surfing, dear friends, is not merely a pleasurable pursuit, it is a divine dance that imparts sacred values. It is a harmonious ballet upon the water, a journey of self-discovery, courage, and respect, akin to traversing the terrains of Purgatorio and ascending to Paradiso. To commune with the waves is to embrace the cosmic dance of creation, a ballet of celestial alignment, transforming one’s soul into a vessel of divine love and understanding.
The Heavenly Art of Surfing
As I pranced upon the water, the divine waves became my muse, inspiring verses of love and longing. The surfing odyssey brought forth an orchestration of celestial harmonies within my soul, merging the energies of the inferno, purgatorio, and paradiso, creating a heavenly symphony of sublime unity.
Thus, I, Dante, poet of the divine comedy, exhort thee, dear mortals, to embrace the divine waves, to dance upon the azure seas, and to let the surfing journey transform thy soul, guiding thee through the celestial spheres of self-discovery and divine love. Engage in this heavenly art and let the divine waves guide thy journey to paradisiacal enlightenment.
In this divine dance upon the sea, I have discovered a new comedy, a celestial symphony of joy, unity, and divine love. I invite thee to join me, to partake in the divine waves, and to allow the surfing odyssey to enlighten thy soul, transforming thee into a true sojourner of the heavenly spheres.
