Finding one’s way here below is a rare blessing; so many human beings wander on the path of ignorance and let themselves be carried away by all kinds of excesses. Knowing where you come from and where you are going is the hallmark of beings who are aware of the need to advance and to seize the opportunity offered in this incarnation. The subtle being is yearning for the Divine and the elevation of the soul – elevation which provides him with the knowledge upon which his practice is based. What remains of an incarnation on this Earth except for such an asset, protected from the hazards of this material world! “It is good to take stock and review one’s priorities. Are they going in the right direction? Are they focused on the main thing? It is better to not go astray and waste precious time – so very precious indeed. We wish to draw the attention of our brothers and sisters especially; each one is working in their own manner and trying to do well in everything. It is not always easy; sometimes, so many complications arise that were not anticipated. One should then face up to things and find the necessary strength within, according to the importance of the cause, and do their level best. In such difficult situations, a spiritual way provides reference points and inspires a suitable course of action. “Tests are meant to make man grow, to train him and make him understand the importance of not wasting time needlessly in frivolous acts. The issue is not to live cut off from the world. One should instead face up to what presents itself. Fortunate and unfortunate events are characteristic of an incarnation; they bring experience and allow for favourable progress when events are experienced in the desired state of surrender. It is not always easy to

My Beloved Master Revered Babuji Maharaj accept what comes up; the apprenticeship of life is the challenge of highest priority. Surrender and love, developed within, give the necessary strength to follow one’s path against all odds. Nothing is useless; it is up to each one to accept this and to advance at all costs, with an open mind and a heart adorned with the graces that it attracts in many circumstances. “All are blessed and supported, whatever the appearances. They should never doubt it.”
