See how good it is to focus one’s attention on the centre point of this [esoteric] symbol; it opens the door to serenity, that which kindles the soul to love. “Our way has many advantages and they can be discovered over time through extensive and sincere practice. We wish more than ever for our abhyasis to achieve productive results that can generate the best for our Mission. “A fervent heart that is convinced of the benefit it receives through sadhana is all the more motivated. We look forward to the greatest blossoming for this whole Sahaj Marg way and for all our brothers and sisters. “Times are tough in this world and they will not get better anytime soon. The recourse of faith, in the Master and in this Mission which he is serving with such brilliance, is a major asset in an incarnation. Joys, human pleasures of all kinds, do not last; they are part of this world of illusion where everything passes and sinks into oblivion, sometimes leaving regrets or much sadness. Only one’s personal achievements last when it lies beyond the scope of materiality and elevates the soul to its highest destiny. A spiritual process like this is very productive; in half a century of existence, it has created an aura of beauty in this world. It stands out among humans; we are not the only ones working in this world, but the results in such a short time, compared to what has existed for centuries, are very compelling. “It is up to each one to become aware of what a spiritual journey such as this brings about, and to enjoy it fully. These benefits are not illusory; they transform the aspirant in the most subtle part of his being – there lies the wonder. “May all our brothers and sisters advance as far as possible under the auspices of their Master and our collective support.”
