In all life events, what is important for you, is to keep your self-control and the attitude that corresponds to your deep convictions. To feel connected to your Master, in all your tribulations, protects you from harmful effects. He must remain your lead in all circumstances; you are under his protection. He cannot save you the inherent hitches of all lives. Ordeals are unavoidable, formative, and free you from your chains. They must be accepted in this spirit, without rebellion, since they are steps that hoist you gradually toward the peak.

"We repeat that: all is counted.

"Live in surrender and confidence, happy and conscious of being lucky to leave behind you the darkness of ignorance. Faith is a torch that illuminates your road. May love illuminate your life and protect you from evil, while delighting your soul and making you advance joyfully."
