The Medium: "Babuji, my life would have been quite insignificant."
Do you know who you are really? You should always look beyond the veneer of a transient incarnation. What you are as incarnate being is not important, but what you are spiritually is. One's personality helps to achieve one's own destiny. It is useful and suited to the role we have to play. The beggar has his own importance, and the king has his too. The first can be a great enlightened soul and the other a traitor. One should always look beyond appearances and see only the divine nature inside every one, which is not necessarily visible. The human criteria are saddening; you are always more sensitive to a person's testimonials than to his profound qualities. This is where maya particularly manifests itself in all of you. You will respect a notable and you will look condescendingly on the poor devil who does not represent anything in your eyes. There too you should re-examine your values; don't adhere to this human system of classification. Respect the beggar, and likewise the personality whom you admire more.
"God cherishes all his children. He makes them go through various stages necessary for their evolution, without belittling them. Your criteria are altogether different from ours; try to understand that. Be happy to invite the poor to eat with you; he is perhaps a lord who hides his treasures. Illusion manifests itself in all aspects of life on Earth; it is what characterizes it.
"Planets are like each one of you: they have their unpleasing tendencies.
"Judge not. Your brother goes on his way, while you are following yours. Life on Earth is never devoid of thorns. Sooner or later, you go through difficult stages. They are useful and must make you become aware of the fragility of beings --The Approach--Being the First Series of Messages Given by Babuji Maharaj to His Scribe
and things you are attached to so forcefully. Remain focused on the main thing: the only purpose of the events of one's existence is to make us become aware of what is important, i.e. the Divine. When all the souls have become aware of reality, this planet will not have any more its raison d'être.
"The cosmic laws govern the universe for the good of its smallest atom. The divine laws are always right; trying to understand them is an aspect of today's topic. Be united and respectful of other people. That's all for today.
"My son J.-M. is going through a difficult stage of his life. He must rebuild himself mentally and define himself better to project himself effectively into the future.
"He will end up emerging from these long years of difficulties and will find, finally, serenity. His Himalayas are inside himself. He will come out strengthened by this long process that will lead him to wisdom.
"We follow them both. Blessings to all."
