You must strive to diagnose your own character and
discover the faults that are infesting it; do not try
to analyse the character of others and seek to spot their defects.

This self-examination is very necessary to bring to light
the defects that might undermine one's spiritual career.
Man differs from man in this struggle against the inner foes.

Each gets the result that his spiritual exercise deserves,
that his acts in this and previous births deserve.

In the spiritual path, each one has to move forward
from where he already is, in his own pace, in the light
of the lamp which each one holds in his own hand.
