We would like to insistently say to our brothers how very short time is, and that they should not neglect what for them is essential. Many understand it and act accordingly, which we note with joy. They do not lose sight of the importance of their practice and all that is related to it. We see them progressing, and time is making changes in their hearts, which in turn carry those of their brothers. Each one of our abhyasis plays his role within our Mission. A good element does not remain isolated. In his own way, he contributes to marking the way which, one day, will be followed by the multitude of those who will be searching for their way. This aspiration will grow in the hearts and our abhyasis must be examples. For this reason, it is wise not to lose sight of the image our Mission can give in the world. It must contribute to offering to man of today and of tomorrow, a new hope for a better life beyond the current one, as well as demonstrating the need for acting in this direction, while it is time--i.e., as of now.

"The golden age is not Utopian. It will mark the advent of a real search for God, far from all related misconceptions that have been kept up for such a long time. This process is very simple: the work to be done in the hearts is a kind of code of honour, a way of life regulated according to the targeted goal, which is obtained only through perseverance, faith in both a method given by divine grace, and the Master chosen to represent it on Earth."
