My child, your path is difficult, but you transform your fights into victories. Perfection cannot be attained easily; what counts is to strive for that. All our aspirants are in a similar situation; as they advance, they become aware of their gaps, which they try to remedy. As assiduous practitioners, the way gets clearer before them and they become aware of the efforts they must make. This reflection gradually leads them to change. The sadhana is redeeming and transforms the being in his own depth, even if some persistent tendencies remain and can be felt in his behaviours. Perseverance and eagerness to do one's best transform one's life. With hindsight, one can make a satisfactory assessment, even if perfection is still far behind. All the efforts are counted. It is not possible to escape this rigour in all man's actions, whatever they are; the system is infallible. The main thing is to make sure that what is well overtakes that which is less. Our remarks are not meant to be moralising; they only underline what can slow down their ascent towards the summit. Man has no better judge than himself, when he actually wants to strive for that; there is no need for a vengeful God to do it. It will take time for work to go in this direction. Our way, with its simple but effective rules, supported by the work of the Master, will give the best results. Practice, perseverance and surrender are the key words in this matter. Add love to them, and all will be well."

Distances, as understood on the Earth, do not matter. My being as is defined here is evanescent: it goes, it comes and disappears, manifesting itself here and there, where need arises. Man is limited to the Earth; the trips he can make from one country to another remain limited, compared to the vastness surrounding him. He cannot, in the current state of his evolution, reach other dimensions. He is caught in this vibratory mass corresponding to his molecular structure. Some peregrinations into space don't mean anything; they physically endanger it. Men remain like children rejoicing for having discovered other planets with an aim of colonising them. They are completely mistaken; their games are harmful and destructive. They boost their ego and their insatiable thirst for power. They destroy and pollute shamelessly. They ransack, and then, they boast about their discoveries. Warnings are ineffective; they don't want to see reason, only profit matters. It is not easy, under these circumstances, to maintain a coherent universal order. Where appeals to reason don't work, the universal laws will have to apply; they consist of strict and immutable rules to be respected. They cannot be scorned indefinitely. A serious call to order will be made with utmost rigour and will be likely to frighten men – deaf to all warnings for so long. The elements will rage furiously by themselves, without any prior programming of reprisals. Everything will come back to normal after this planet has been divested of all its nuisances. This time will come, not tomorrow, but it will happen inexorably."
