This is not an ordinary day; it deeply marked the heart of all fervent disciples of Revered Lalaji during their life on Earth. It was the day of his merciful relief.

"Having accomplished his mission, he left the torch, which was taken over with sufferings. Succeeding a Great Being like him humanly represents an achievement, as disciples are seldom ready to accept the chosen one capable of proceeding on the way already shown. My son knows what it is, and it will be the same after him, irrespective of who his successor is. Men are like that! They become too much attached to the physical person of the Master, without considering his real dimension, which is beyond this world. [On Earth,] he is only a representative for service purposes, his divine being having already deserted the place. This being, unknown to men, is with us, living on ethereal substance, which he drinks in abundance, while continuing his mission among men. As his spiritual stature is growing, it goes far beyond the framework of what he is achieving in this world. He is deeply ploughing the furrows of our way, which corresponds to the spiritual evolution of humanity for future times, whose seeds are already in place in many countries.

"What is good for man spreads naturally. The thirst for the Divine is felt in him, leaving his heart eager to find a way to quench it. He will be touched in due time, when he is ready for this process that will open doors hitherto unknown to him."
