The purpose of this work, performed every day with love, is also to develop your gifts and to get closer to my son's wishes, i.e., a more concrete communication on his problems. The distance between you both does not work in our favour. A medium is not a sophisticated machine, which could simply be programmed at our convenience. We must take account of his sensitivity, his doubts and his uprightness towards us. The fear not to satisfy us is a hindrance to the process. Do your level best and feel more confident in yourself, my daughter. What we are currently doing aims at comforting my son. We accompany him in his actions, as he knows. His age and his tiredness do not take away from his punch in any way. His mind is still sharp; he is in top form. Who could currently challenge him?

"He is good at all levels, with perspicacity. In the decade to come, the ashrams will grow in number; we foresee this prospect with favour. It is wise to envisage structures to deal with the increasing needs. Demand will be very high in America; this land is fertile in this respect. The demand must be met. This New World, as it was called, is still virgin with regard to spiritual development. It is nearing a transitional period in its evolution when, having had its fill of exacerbated materialism, it will turn to new values, freeing it of known dogmas and of rituals not capable of satisfying it. European countries will emerge more slowly. Nevertheless the harvest is promising to be nice. We are entirely confident in my son, as he always acts with discernment and wisdom; we will come back to this point. He knows what we expect from him: his work prepares future times.

"Our particular blessings are directed at you, my dear son."
