★There is no end to all the 'dos and don'ts.' Use your wisdom and purity to do your work, and act accordingly. See to yourself that you are pure at all times. That's important.

★Always recite the Holy Names and ask for inner guidance on whether what you do is correct, and meditate on that if you are in doubt.

★ You have to be flexible; that's why we need wisdom and love, not only rules and laws. The law of love transcends everything. Do things with love, with purity and wisdom; that's all I ask of you.

★We do things because they need to be done; we do things to serve others, not to satisfy our own feelings. In this way we will not lose our wisdom.

★Humility doesn't come with the title 'very humble;' it comes from within. When we all realize that we are all children of God, and we and the Father are one, that is where true humility begins.


★Initiation is meant to remind you of your greatest inheritance, and then you can make use of your treasure every day instead of relying on any Master at all, whether dead or alive. That is the purpose of our Method of practice, and there is no other purpose besides that.
