Another technique of the dark forces that is very prevalent these days

Another technique [of the dark forces] that is very prevalent these days is called a “you know, you are” technique. Dark forces, seeing that in the future you can be a leader of light, slowly inject into your aura the feeling that you do not need to study, learn, search. “You know already; why waste time,” as if you had more important things to do! They also suggest that you do not need to work on yourself because “you ARE already...” Years pass and you remain ignorant, and your beingness remains the same. You become an obstacle on your own path and on the path of others.

Serving

A retired doctor came to a village where people were suffering with various diseases. He went to the city and bought hundreds of dollars worth of medicine and began to take care of them. On Sundays, he gave lectures to them on various health issues. One day an old lady asked him, “Why don’t you go rest in your home and enjoy yourself? You are working too hard in the village and you are not making a single cent.” “You are mistaken,” the doctor replied. “I cannot stay here and remain healthy if I do not educate these people and heal them.”

Even if we serve people for our own interest, it is beneficial. Only by serving people can we eventually learn to forget ourselves in the performance of service.

All creative people are inspired by the love of a woman or a man

All creative people are inspired by the love of a woman or a man whom they love and who loves them. If the love does not continue with one person and frequently changes to different people and turns into a pursuit of sexual satisfaction, the sphere of love cannot be formed and higher creativity cannot take place.

In the East when they see a great, creative man they say, “Someone loves him deeply.” It is important that leaders, teachers, and elevated artists are surrounded with a sphere of love to render a better and deeper creative service for others. Love provides substance to their creative thought so that it can take form and manifest on earth.

Thought-creativity degenerates and even turns into hostile currents toward life as a whole when a creative person or a creative leader destroys the formation of the sphere of love of one person and tries to build another sphere with a new arrangement. Disintegrated love-spheres are as dangerous as decomposing food in your environment.

Life passes and the child-minded people run after the satisfaction of their sex, without forming a permanent relation and building their love-sphere which, in the future, would be the source of inspiration for both parties.

Chaos

Chaos is formed by those energy currents that are not yet under the control of a center. These energies, being loose, without plan and purpose, often are used by dark forces to create chaotic conditions on the physical, emotional, and mental planes of humanity. These chaotic conditions are often disturbing and preventing the impressions sent from Higher Sources to our planet.

Chaos increases when people act without a purpose or a plan and melt in the chaos, losing the purpose of their life. People often become a part of chaos when they lose their inner direction. Chaos increases also when planets, systems, or even galaxies are left without their souls, thus decaying in the currents of chaos.

Does not chaos operate under the Law of God, as it is from chaos that Cosmos emerges? The scientists think that Cosmos emerges from chaos. However it is not from the chaos that Cosmos emerges, as the baby does not emerge from a chaos.

If the scientists do more study on the formation of a body – atom, man, globe, solar system – they will see that first there is a perfect Archetype and the forces of the Archetype gradually condense it, plane after plane, phase after phase, until it is materialized. The curious thing is that every phase of descent of the Archetype into more condensation is a Cosmos more beautiful than the last condensation.

So the gestation period cannot be called a chaotic period. Chaos is not a state of gestation, evolution, or even involution. Then what is chaos? Chaos is an abortive phenomenon, a process of degeneration, conflict, unpurposefulness, goallessness, and planlessness, when forces are let loose to annihilate each other because of their choices.

Every atom, man, globe, solar system, and so on has its own choice, its own form of choice tolerated by the Omnipotent Architect of the Universe. Some of the forces in chaos decide to enter into the labor of evolution of a Cosmos, some not. In timelessness this continues without beginning or end.

All forces must be organized for the reappearance of Christ

There is a great service, a world service. It is the reappearance of Christ. All forces must be organized in that direction. If you are not doing it, if you are caught in any other group in which there is no Christ and His reappearance, you are wasting your time and the time of others because you are preventing others from penetrating into the real core of the Teaching. If you are not hooked with the Christ spirit, you are losing your time. All the books you are reading, all the teachings you are giving that are not based in the reappearance of Christ and in the Hierarchical evolution and synthesis are all empty. They are wasting time, energy, and matter.

This is so important to know because many of you, thousands of people, are wasting their time on this yoga, that yoga, this and that. You don't need that! You need to develop the sense of direction, the sense of universality, the sense of synthesis, and to come in contact with the presence of Christ. You don't need any teaching at all! It is the sublimation, transformation, transfiguration of your life that you need, but you don't do this because the dark forces have organized "chocolates" and in the chocolates there is poison. You don't see that poison but I see that poison. You have millions of "White Brotherhoods", millions of "Teachers" and "Christs" and "St. Pauls" and "Napoleons" and "Marie Antoinettes."

The purpose of religions

Religions are set forth in order that people enjoy the benefits of leading a moral life. Religion is a meritorious system that unifies body, mind and intellect. Integrity or wholesomeness of conduct is morality. Morality is also called as Righteousness (Dharma). Practice of morality alone can help the world attain greater levels of prosperity. All religions have the same goal and establish the same truth. Their fundamental duty is to transform a human being into a divine being. Religion brings out the inner transformation in a human being. It aims at developing self-confidence to lead a good life. All religions are built on the secure foundation of morality. If morality deteriorates, not just religions, but humanity as a whole deteriorates. Every individual must practice being good and lead a moral life. Attainment of wealth and prosperity is possible by practicing moral values.

Somebody Does Not Leave You

One day a woman was crying and crying. I asked, “What happened?” “My husband is going with other girls.” “I would never have imagined that,” I said, “but Somebody did not leave you.” “Who? Everybody I went with left me.” I said, “Do you know that God never left you? Think about it.”

It is so beautiful to have the psychological attitude in life that there is Someone you can really have faith in, and that He is going to stand there no matter who or what you are and protect you.
