Yes, we have repeated ourselves much over these years. Is your heart weary of receiving us? It seems not. Therefore, let us continue for some more time; your Master may wish to give his opinion on this issue.

"We have been dwelling on the behaviour of our brother and sister abhyasis, and the observations of their failings which may curb their evolution. This recommendation is always relevant: all must be done to facilitate spiritual work. Though effective as it is, it is wise at the same time to adhere to some rules of life: tolerance towards others, non-judgement and being strict with oneself. Some solid bases are a good support to a regular practice. We encourage our aspirants to remain vigilant. We want them to get the best and everything must be tried in that respect. It is not easy to iron out some asperities of one's character, however relevant efforts are desirable. The most salient faults poison the life of those concerned, as well as that of their circle. Trying to improve oneself is commendable. Spiritual practice cannot do everything, contrary to the belief of most of our aspirants. It cannot by any means compensate for the striking weaknesses of some of them.

"The Mission is a big family where anyone can express himself, on the condition that one respect some ethics that are essential for the system to function well. It must be an example of union beyond individual differences and make it possible for all our brothers to be perfectly integrated into it."

Babuji --Reflections

The great family of Sahaj Marg must remain united as a group. Differences will inevitably arise; the human being is so complicated, even in a way like ours, his nature often comes to the fore. The same problems happen in any group.

"Spirituality must unify and help overcome these disagreements that have no justification. One of the important aspects of the work being carried out in our system is the normalisation of behaviours. This aspect should not be overlooked, and each one must make efforts to contribute to it.

"My son is a shrewd strategist; he is doing his level best concerning these pernicious conflicts prejudicial to the image of the Mission. Bad candidates must be moved aside and should seek treatment if they have behavioural problems; our action does not cover this aspect. Our Mission brings together a great number of aspirants from different backgrounds and cultures; their common objective must bring them closer and unite them in this common process that prevails over everything.

"When faith and love are sufficiently developed in the hearts, they can be united and fervent in their process. It must ease human reactions and motivate the group, enabling it to forge ahead and strengthen its presence in the city. A suitable meeting place is fulfilling for all. May all our brothers make the interest of the group prevail over unfounded differences!"
