My child,

" 'The Promised Land' is within you and not in us. Its conquest has to be made through us, our hearts have that privilege: bringing the souls to their highest destiny. You chose our way in which you were awaited, like the many aspirants who also follow the same path. Everything was thus planned for; each step is determining for humanity and brings it new choices, especially with regard to its spiritual evolution.

"Our Mission is soaring slowly, but one day it will cover the world, thus did the higher authorities decide it. We also were selected to incarnate it, give it life and impulse in the world of men, by meeting a need growing in most people to depart from religions and concepts no longer corresponding to the signs of the times.

"God is Great; humanity is sick but not incurable, on the condition of uplifting it to another level of consciousness and of revealing to it the real aspects of its true nature. A great thinker wrote: 'Man—the unknown.' His pronouncement did not exceed his human condition, whereas he and reality are worlds apart.

"Time has no relevance on Earth; it is a reference. But what does it represent in the face of eternity, of its constantly renewed power of creation and destruction? It is a rare energy, not yet detected by men, as they are restricted to their current knowledge acquired so parsimoniously, according to their evolution.

"The age of enlightenment will come one day on Earth and transform this world plagued by the throes of ignorance."
