The world of the spirit
is not only different, but,
in fact, is quite the opposite
from the world of the mind.
The mind is fulfilled
only upon its own desires,
the spirit is fulfilled with its freedom to be able to give.
The nature of the mind is to think,
the nature of the spirit is to know!
The mind immediately retaliates
and responds to external influences -
the spirit is silent, its strength to wait allows
the attack of the external influence to wither and die!
The mind, My sweet,
is uncertain of its own doings,
the spirit is the only truth, and the truth,
My child, exists upon its certainty!
Mind is the illusion of thoughts -
the Spirit is the life of the Self - the true doer of all!
To live the life of the Spirit,
one must be able to identify every act of his with its truth.
Spiritual yearning can never
be fed by the worldly comfort -
its hunger can be satisfied and extinguished,
only when one reaches and lives the Highest Ideals -
only when one reflects the Higher Life and not the life
in which one sees himself higher than another struggling soul.
Open the mind to the higher way of thinking.
Thoughts must reflect the goodness of the inner, true self.
Then only will one find the inner peace to find and know the true God!
It is your own concentration
that lets you achieve success in your spiritual goals.
Do not ever worry about the external distractions.
If the yearning is sincere,
the Lord will respond even
amidst the screams and threats of the evil demons.
Cry the tears of faith,
walk the path of goodness
no matter what the pain,
and you will shake and awaken the Lord to fulfill His Duty of saving you!
