The universe is and will remain a mystery to man and this is not about to change: the secrets of God will remain well kept, no creature will access them. The most advanced scientific studies inevitably bring man back to God. A great step will have to be taken by men in this direction, before they could see the truth as it is, with humility.

"Man is not requested to know everything and to be able to explain everything; a solution would consist in his following the right process, but he still has to be willing. We encourage our brothers to progress spiritually; that is their key to the future, far from any abstract formulas likely to satisfy a curious mind. To find fulfilment in oneself, for oneself, is a success going well beyond certitudes flaunted by certain researchers, but which are groundless.

"Educating oneself, yes! We do not expect our aspirants to remain ignorant, but they should know well that it is not essential to man's life. A spiritual process well led and lived, in a spirit of surrender and gratitude towards the Master, brings man back to a more correct view of things where priorities would be delineated.

"Since the beginning of time, the human being has wondered about the origins of this world and its future, without getting valid answers. Nothing has truly changed since then. He is searching outside for that which resides inside. The secret is in each one of his cells. God lives in him, in all the fibres of his being, but he does not know it and generally, he ignores this presence, paying no attention to it. Our aspirants are not at that stage; each one in one's own way is progressing towards the goal."
