In these messages, we give a certain number of warnings about mistakes which humans can make, as they are not aware of their possible repercussions. Even the eyes of the wisest are nevertheless covered by the blindfold of illusion that governs this world. The best equipped are sometimes misled. 'To err is human' so you say on Earth, but mistakes can result in detrimental consequences.
"Spiritual life does not provide protection from everything, with regard to daily life in the material world. It is not easy to put things into perspective in all events. Rushed by the tide of life in this world, man clings to what he takes as certainties.
"Certain mistakes, in the end, culminate in positive results, others don't. We all went through this disconcerting school, in many respects. No human being, whatever his spiritual elevation, escapes this kind of experience. All mistakes cannot be corrected; therefore, it is advisable to think deeply before engaging on a slippery path.
"The many aspects of life are to be considered in the context of a spiritual process. They interfere in the existence of our aspirants, and it is wise to draw their attention to likely errors of judgement. An incarnate being has a vulnerable side; all humans have this weak point. May they become aware of this aspect of themselves and act accordingly, if they can.

"We are not drawing the attention of our brothers in vain; they will try in any event to act as well as possible, while weighing the pros and cons."
