Go beyond the framework of human baseness, which currently complicates things in your material life. What will remain of all that at the end of the day? Humans are like that; we have to accept it. Immerse yourself in all that is the salt of your life on this Earth and in your usual refuge, which includes these contacts that are the extension of your spiritual commitment. Spiritual commitment transforms the life of our brothers who, in their respective ways, are likewise grappling with multiple difficulties.

"Nobody escapes them; laws are what they are, we cannot change anything on this point. However, our brothers can change. Their perseverance in following us, by putting their trust in us, is a decisive element that made them understand the meaning of their incarnation. Man, by nature, is in search of happiness and stability, yet this generally escapes him. Only wisdom can make him accept his life as it is by trying to understand the meaning of it.

"It is not easy to accept all the reasons why his incarnation does not meet his expectations. Who can accept ordeals without batting an eyelid? Their purpose within our way is to help them with all their questionings on existential difficulties.

"We cannot comply with their wish to make life easier for them. Where then would the challenge be? We first attend to the most urgent matters related to each one, and they represent a lot of work. Their commitment is made of perseverance in practice and unfailing confidence, which are decisive elements. We cannot help them against their own wishes. --Reflections

"All this is glaringly obvious, you will say, but it is not so easy to follow a path without stumbling over obstacles. There are always stumbling blocks on the path which the strongest person may not always be able to avoid."

It is all movement and change on the Earth; this, at least, is common to the entire creation. No form of life escapes this principle, which is acknowledged by all. On this issue, we are not telling our readers anything new.

"For many people, whatever is not under the control of their senses is not conceivable, whereas all the principles of life emanate from the same approach, which exceeds the current framework of knowledge. We don't wish to delve into these considerations here.

"An advanced esoteric teaching is not included in the current standards of our way. With time, our way will adapt to men's broadmindedness and then we will provide them with the necessary elements for their progress. Our aspirants have yet a lot to do: they must progress and divest themselves of an excessive ego. Advancing in humility prepares them for the future destiny of humanity.

"A tremendous work remains to be done on this aspect; one has only to observe the behaviour of some people to notice it. The conditions of all must evolve; we are working to that end without the benefit of appropriate and effective assistance. May our abhyasis become aware of these weaknesses; doing so will help them in their work, however diligent it may be.

"The ascent is long and difficult; we cannot deny it, but what is at stake is important. The many brothers who are following us have understood it perfectly and are striving as well as possible to reach the goal. It is a long and difficult endeavour. We offer them, shall we say, a certain guarantee in the fulfilment of their hopes. --Reflections

"Let us all continue to work accordingly. Only effort can pay off in this matter. Our comments can seem simplistic to the most 'erudite' people; yet they befit the situation and are not meant to comply with stylistic effects."
