[Fis] The genesis of art, love and wellbeing

[Francesco Rizzo]

Dear Kate, Pedro, Suni, and all,

forgive me if I allow myself, perhaps excessively, to share with you the
foundation of my life and my cognitive conception: "Scientific knowledge is
con-ditioned by love, just as belief in God is con-ditioned by love.
Therefore, without love there is neither science nor faith; both are
combined by con-science. On the other hand, knowing-possessing, preserving,
and valorizing the laws of creation and creatures means knowing and loving
the Creator, and vice versa, knowing and loving the Creator means knowing
and loving the laws of creatures and creation" (enigma of January 29, 2026,
12:55 PM = 1 PM = Trinity and each of us).

I greet you with love.

Francesco.



Cari Kate, Pedro, Suni e tutti,

perdonatemi se mi permetto, forse in eccesso, di farvi conoscere il
basamento della mia vita e della mia concezione cognitiva: «Il conoscere
scientifico è con-dizio-nato dall’amore, così come credere in Dio è
con-dizio-nato dall’amore. Quindi senza amore non v’ha nè scienza né fede,
l’una e l’altra sono com-binate dalla co-scienza. D’altra parte
conoscere-possedere, conservare e valorizzare le leggi del *creato* e delle
*creature* significa conoscere e amare il *Creatore*, e viceversa conoscere
e amare il Creatore significa conoscere e amare le leggi delle creature e
del creato» (enigma del 29 gennaio 2026, ore 12. 55 = 13 = Trinità e ognuno
di noi).

Vi saluto con amore.

Francesco.
