The difficult step related to the Montpellier ashram is past. It underwent all these turbulences to be purified and to make a clean start. It is up to you, now, to make it live again and to liven it up, and to make it become a beacon, as we have been hoping for a long time.

"People of goodwill are coming forward. You must be daring and ensure that abhyasis from other regions are willing to go there for seminars. Great comfort and parks are not necessary; this is a city ashram and not a vacation resort; its vocation lies elsewhere.

"Be imaginative. Really motivated abhyasis will find in it what they are longing for. Days of seminars can be made very dense by avoiding dispersion.

"You should offer weekends to your brothers and sisters that do not require long journeys, or too many family constraints. This place is special. It has its own role to play; it is up to you, only, to make it find its true place in the heart of the city."
