“Our Needs.”

“Human life is a constant struggle between material and spiritual impulses. However, these two kinds of impulses don't need to be at odds with each other. The problem is that mortals in this world have created a lot of false needs that distract them. The basic needs of the human being – without which a normal live could not be possible – can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
The problem is that many people in this world can't even satisfy their most basic needs. While a few have more than what they really need, hundreds die every day due to their inability to satisfy basic needs. Yet the real price of these unsatisfied needs is that so many people never even consider the spiritual side of life because the physical suffering caused by their unmet needs prevents them from thinking about anything else. How could a child think about spiritual progress when he or she is afraid for his or her life? How could a mother search for spiritual peace while watching her children die of hunger? It is like not really living.
Those who take more than what they need and use their resources to control others are creating a heavy load for themselves.
You might be one of the few fortunate ones that have more than what you need. Don't forget about your siblings who suffer. There is a lot you can do to improve the life of those around you, starting with finding within yourself desires to shine to others through you.

“Ultimately Equitable and Fair (Destiny)"

So many of you can think of a period in your lives when it seemed that life itself dealt you a harsh blow, a time of anger or despair, a time of poverty or mistreatment. We do not wish to deal with such events directly, but instead we wish to present the circumstances we find in.
With your innate drive toward doing what is right, your thoughts and wishes have an effect in guiding you onto your slow, long road to perfection.
“Perhaps earlier, perhaps later, you will arrive at a point where your combined efforts will guarantee that when the time comes for you to leave this world, we will be granted the honor of ascending with you. However, should your progress be deemed to be inadequate, you must remain earthbound, and repeat the effort with another human being for the length of his or her life. One might say that human behavior, so impacting on our immediate destiny, would be considered to be unfair. Not so.
Surprisingly, the human ascending is not some extent the loser. Forced to remain earthbound for human life, term are neither winners nor losers, because you are here for is to accumulate time-space experience. Later, after extended stay and further hard work on an evolutionary planet,you will be the most advanced, most brilliant, and most respected among your kin.

“Let us have a break here, and let us come back in a while to consider the human aspect of what may seem unreasonable and unfair.”

Understand this well, all human life is of great value, and the immature soul of the child that passed away so shortly after birth is very well being cared for. Both parents, after their ascension, will complete the task of bringing up and educating the loved one they lost. Due to the fact that the child has missed out on all earthly experience, its destination will be the local universe, not the long road to paradise.

The universe of universes does not shortchange a single one of its creatures. It is ultimately equitable and fair.

“The Desire to Help.”

“The desire to help is something that might be taken advantage of. Remember how the bullish children took advantage of the inclination of the master to not defend himself. Even when these episodes happened several times, He was never in danger and always tried to offer advice, and give of his time to those who were trying to harm him. At other times he just walked away without saying a word, when he perceived that those bothering him didn’t have any desire to better themselves.

“In reality, you can always know when someone is trying to take advantage of you. True help is not about solving other people’s problems. You can offer advice to those who ask, you can say words of comfort to those who need them, and you can talk about the realities of the spirit to those who inquire. When someone asks you to solve their problems, or to buy something you don’t need, you will know what their intentions are.

“In general, commerce is a good idea and since the beginning it has been one of the main factors that moved civilization forward. However, the idea of trying to ‘sell by force’ things that are not needed, is a modern idea. Is is more wise for people to learn not to buy everything they are offered if they don’t really need it, instead of buying things just because they want to help. Those who are trying to find a way to sustain themselves should strive to do something that is beneficial to others, not something that adds another load to people's shoulders.

“It is a rule of success that those who produce something that is good for others will get a fair reward. Indeed, when a commercial activity does something good for people, such activity will keep flourishing and generate benefits. As you can see, commerce can live in harmony, and even contribute to civilization's progress.”

“Opportunities.”

“You will often find that the things you write are exactly the things others need to hear. The truth always finds its way to the hearts of those who seek it. As a book, a movie or a song, can leave you with a message you needed to hear to move forward, your words, your ideas, or anything else you share with your brothers and sisters, can be useful and to their benefit.

“This is how the inspiration finds its way into your world. Many are being inspired today, in science, in arts, in politics, to explore alternatives resulting in the greater good. Those who are pioneers in these areas can be sure about counting on support, as long as their intentions are truthful and their goal is to do their will.

“It is in this world you learn to become co-creators. It is here where you have the first experience for the creation of a reality. The world in which you live is a product of your collective actions and ideas. All you see around you today was once an idea in somebody’s mind, and perhaps that idea filtered to improve something, or to solve a problem.

“Inspiration is always available to those who search for it, but it is always your will, your creativity and your diligence which will determine if an idea is forgotten, or if it will come to fruition. You can be sure that if one man ignores the opportunity to improve something in your world, another will receive what his brother rejected. About these opportunities: ‘For the one who has will be given more, and he will have more than enough. But the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken from him’.

“Every day life offers a lot of opportunities for loving service, for being a reflection in this world, particularly in a world such as this, with all its problems and confusion. This privilege is offered to all without distinction. Will you take this opportunity? Do you start to grasp the reason why you were born into this world and at this time? You are in the most appropriate place to achieve significant spiritual growth. It all depends on how well you take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves each instant.”

“Pioneering.”

Here we are at the start of a new day, another unwritten page in the book of life. It is a marvelous beginning to start the day. You are still placing your fingers on the keyboard very hesitantly as you truly don’t know what to expect. Actually, is that not the same as when you start out on an uncharted course, and you don’t know what you are to expect around the next corner.
Life is such that when you begin to pay more attention to your surroundings, you may finally notice something that was always there, but now you can see it with new eyes. Your attention is ever so subtly growing sharper, which is very much the result of your paying more heed to your inner life. It is not only in the physical world that one can become a pioneer, but very much the inner life is like uncharted waters -- a brand-new dimension which for ages to come will bring you more wonderful surprises than you could ever have thought possible.
The more you walk the uncharted terrain in the inner life, the more interesting connections you will find, which help enrich the though-processes in the everyday outer life. Life itself becomes far more interesting, because you have that inner pool of untold wealth to draw upon. Nothing will remain mundane as a feeling of owning great riches that no one can take away from you will envelop you.
New energies are becoming known to you, and even though they are free for the taking, they need to be experienced by each individual mortal in turn. This is a foretaste of what will become more familiar to you in the next stage of existence on the first world where one will come in contact with a great many new things. And yet, when in this mortal estate more attention is being paid to the inner life, one will already be able to enjoy a foretaste of the wonders of heaven and of eternity to come.
However, it takes dedication and perseverance to daily set aside the time for this to become a habit, and for one to become a pioneer in the silence where your pilot is waiting to unfold more wonders than ever would have entered your mind. Each one who shall endeavor through sheer effort and struggle to set out upon these uncharted waters within their selves, and discover those riches first hand, as new circuits are continuing to open up as the capacity therefore enlarges through your efforts.
Every day is filled with potentials, which can be turned into actuals.

"Your Journey"

“It is in the decisions of each moment where a life dedicated to our will. You are the author of your own life. You write each chapter and observe the consequences of your decisions.

“It is vital to recognize the importance of making decisions. It is there where the true power of the will can be perceived. At each moment you can stop and consider which direction you will take. Are you walking to fulfill your potential, or wandering off to an unknown destination? This is the importance of living in the present.

“A life consecrated to our will is built day by day, minute by minute, through constant self evaluation. This is living with awareness in the moment. Many spend their lives without stopping to consider where their impulses, their efforts and their wishes are taking them.

“The best journeys are usually those that are not planned. When tourists have a schedule, the trip turns into a race to get to the places of interest at the time required. At the end of these journeys, most people end up tired and in need of another period of relaxation. Now, when the journeys are spontaneous and are made without expectations or schedules, the experience is more relaxed and satisfactory.

“Your life is a journey through the experiences of the material world. It is up to you to choose how to take each step. If you decide to let you be the one who decides the paths and set the schedules, you will discover that life hides great surprises which you might have never found on your own. Stop forcing the events and let yourself be taken by the one who perfectly knows what things will fill your soul with happiness and who will take you by the hand to lead you there.”

“Glory.”

“The highest glory to which you can aspire is the glory of being able to say ‘I did what my father or mother asked of me.’ I have learned that the pursuit of glory is wrong. This is indeed the case when that glory is based on the exaltation of ego and the search for human accolades. True glory is the highest honor that can be achieved by a creature: To live according to our will, and gain the respect and acknowledgment of those who live the same way throughout the universe.

“As you can see, there is a kind of glory that can be useful for your spiritual growth. By living your life according to your s will, even if the glory ‘up there’ is what motivates you, definite soul growth will take place, removing any misguided motivations you may have.

“Many human aspirations sometimes have divine motivation. However, many endeavors in the life of mortals are lost when people let external influences and opinions decide for them. It is in your heart where the true purpose for your life can be found for the satisfaction of your soul. Once you know this truth nothing could prevent you from starting to do what is needed for your advancement in this world and the next.

The only thing that is expected of you is that you learn to listen to your inner voice, and that you decide to follow advice for your own benefit. How bountiful and gratifying the journey of life becomes when the children learn to follow the advice of their inner voice and discover the wonders that are placed along the road.
