Abhyasis must be vigilant and not add to the basic teaching – a very simple one – a code approaching that of the religion we have just mentioned. In the future, this vigilance will be particularly necessary.

People have a tendency to always want to distort the truth. If we draw your attention to a certain attitude to observe for your own good, on no account do we want to make you feel guilty. That goes against our work; by creating in yourselves this kind of samskara, you put a brake on your advancement. You must yourselves put things in perspective concerning this or that behaviour. You are your own judge. Except for the Master himself, it is not in the remit of any preceptor, or of anyone else in the Mission, to reproach you.

In the case of a very serious personal attack, one should not be afraid to refer it to the Master, rather than letting latent situations set in, leading to no good for the group. It's up to you all to try always, and in all circumstances, to maintain the middle ground. With our help, you should see things clearly and do your best.
