Hai, Colorado, USA, April 10, 1993

 Q:
Are pain and illness always the result of present karma? If so,
how do we clean them out?
M:
We can clean them out by enduring them because it's already
too late to reverse the wheel of karma. But we can minimize them, lubricate
them by being enlightened, by meditating on the perfection of the Father
every day through the guidance of a teacher, through initiation. Then,
we can minimize a lot of things.

Q:
What's the purpose of epidemic
diseases such as malaria, AIDS, etc. Are humans interfering with the
natural process by trying to find cures for these diseases?
M::
Even you find some cures for these diseases, another disease will breed
itself out. Only when human beings realize that they should surrender
to God, to the Almighty Power which is within us, only when humans realize
that in them there's a great power to heal all diseases and that they
should rely on this power alone will all diseases cease. All these things
are warnings to tell that we should return to God.

Q:
Do You think that there's a change occurring
in our time, specifically 1985 to the year 2010, that allows for a more
global, larger change?
M:
Yes. This is a kind of uplifting. Because when
a great quantity of spiritual energy gathers together or condenses in
one period of time, there is more urging than usual. Especially when
the planet may be in more turmoil, with more troubles, more turbulence,
more war and more disasters, the grace of God is more urgent. Because
more people pray for the grace of God in these times of need. The more
that people sincerely pray, the more the grace of God will descend upon
this planet.

Q:
Please explain more about mass suffering. Are
people guilty from before, and that's why they suffer?
M:No
one is innocent. I'm not condemning anyone at all. It's all a process
of learning lessons. Learning is very painful. Once you're awakened,
however, you see things in a different light, and you know it's all
lessons.
 Look
at the mass killing that we do every day in order to keep this body
for a hundred years. How many lives have to be sacrificed - all the
fish, all the shrimp, all the chickens, all the pigs, all the buffaloes?
Do you think all this energy will be dissolved without war, without
suffering, without physical ailments? Everything we do is recorded in
the air. Nothing is lost; it's only diluted with a different energy.
It's only equalized by different actions, not lost. For example, if
air has already become ice after being water, and if you want it to
disappear, you have to put sun rays, a lamp, light or heat on it, in
order to get it back into the form of air again. So if we've been killing,
conducting mass massacres all the time, all these animals are suffering,
and they also have consciousness, thoughts and hateful energy, all this
hatred and fear condenses itself into a powerful energy and hangs around
in the air. Too much of that will result in mass suffering.
We
have to pay for everything we use in this physical universe. Therefore,
all the Masters emphasize following a vegetarian diet, which has the
least cost to the various forms of existence. Animals have life, plants
also have life, but they incur the least cost. Just like if you earn
only a hundred dollars and you want to spend two hundred, of course
you go into debt, and you're in trouble. If you try to buy cheap things
and satisfy yourself with the minimum cost to live, then you have no
worries about debt. That's why we choose the vegetarian diet - fruit and
nuts. All these things have less crime, less consciousness
within themselves. If you take a few nuts from the trees, the trees still have plenty of
nuts to grow thousands more nut trees. They won't be lost. If you cut
a flower, or a branch of a vegetable, it will grow even more from that
cut stem, even more vegetables will come out of it. So in this way,
we know that the vegetarian diet is less harmful and incurs less cost.
