Our great son Parthasarathi, the Master of all of you, also suffered when he had to take on the succession as the head of this great and beautiful Sahaj Marg Mission. How can fervent abhyasis who are faithful to the incumbent Master not respect what has long been planned and ordered by the higher authorities to ensure the succession when the time for it has come? It is sad after so many years to once again witness the unfortunate positions [people hold] with respect to this issue. That situation is serious and not commendable; let us hope that years of spiritual practice by our truly fervent abhyasis have brought about a mindset of surrender, and more so of respect for our decisions. Resistance in some abhyasis denotes an ego that is saddening in a spiritual path capable of leading them to the height of their quest – something which is not commonplace. Not seizing such an opportunity in one’s lifetime is regrettable for the person concerned and damaging to the whole Mission. “Unity builds strength; respect for the Masters ensures cohesion and helps an aspirant grow. Human beings cannot understand everything. Concerning our intentions and the decisions that must be made beyond the limited human understanding of divine plans, it would be wiser for people to recognise and respect our choices, for their own good and that of the whole Mission. May all our abhyasis grow in wisdom and reach the goal under our blessings and encouragement which are meant to foster their elevation. To all the best.”
