Love is a vast subject. The love we are talking about here cannot be defined in human language. It knows no limits; it is as immense as all of creation. This very subtle energy is indefinable, as its power is beyond human understanding. Experiencing it, however limited this experience may be, transforms a person’s life. Following a spiritual way based on the heart – the centre point of any action of this kind – opens up perspectives on the Infinite and marks the beginning of a true personal journey, one whose outcomes are highly rewarding. “There is so much to say on this subject. Without really getting into what love can actually generate, all we intend to mention here is the power of action that characterises it. Its power is great; it operates at all levels of consciousness and can transform a being who is truly committed to such an approach. What would life be without this flame that can transform and set ablaze a fervent heart! Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see the light. There lies the centre point of a human being – within, in this divine stronghold where the best can develop. This love is the true purpose of life. May all our brothers and sisters achieve it, truly understanding the meaning of these comments and advancing in this sanctifying way of love.”

The river follows its course; all Earthly elements follow an unchanging cycle. Laws cannot be circumvented, and humans – like everything in creation – are subjected to these principles. Humans believe they are free, but although they are granted some latitude, they have no authority over their destiny. They have to live and cope with it. Choices are reserved for them, but whether they make them judiciously or not is another question. Nothing is simple, and it is not always easy to leave aside one’s tendencies and poorly made decisions. “Following a spiritual path is a way for humans to understand and realise their smallness in the face of the divine power, and to do their best to grow. The material side is one aspect of this life. People are offered broad prospects in a process like this one where everything takes place discreetly, out of human sight. This very special asset is offered by divine grace; blessed are those who, in their lifetime, have the opportunity to move towards the Ultimate. Abhyasis do not always become aware of their progress, of the work being done in them and the miasmas they have been divested of. No incarnate being is perfect. All must rid themselves of that which is unnecessary and advance with faith and courage – with the immense help of the power of the living Master and the forces constituted by the alliance of Masters of the Sahaj Marg Mission. They are attentive to the needs and requests of each one and of the whole Mission, which is sustained as it should be beyond this world. ‘What must be will be,’ and Sahaj Marg will continue its course against all odds. “Blessings to all.”
