The frail life which is yours sets forth upon its journey weak and helpless, passing through storms and changes, strange unlockings unknown to your consciousness. Things hardly realized, influences beyond your conception make cross currents upon your destiny, upon this frail life which like a leaf blown high into the sky crosses mountains and valleys. In your day and times this life seems meaningless, terrifying and full of suffering, violent and easily brushed across the veil because of a thousand menacing dangers. The purpose of the inward struggles for integrity, to live, even to simply exist, stupefies the philosophers who like all the rest grope blindfolded through the first human stages, for the mystery is not revealed at once, but day by day, little by little and only to the seeker. I hear you say, “If I am in communion with the celestial influences, the Holy Spirit, why is my path not made smooth and why does it not bring about the instant destiny of my endeavor? Why is there this impenetrable wall between me and my aspiration and its fulfillment?”
Think. To fulfill any enterprise means that you meet other destinies also behind impenetrable walls, filled with emotions, desires, attributes different from your own. No wonder, therefore, that your little leaf is swirled high into the storms and revolts of other human destinies. This way is dark, the road hard and flinty and no one can free himself from the question Why? Why? The events of your times, stages in human personalities of those with whom you must march, add to your darkness and confusion. Under these circumstances of human living great can be the loneliness and the suffering. Life is awful indeed in its greater sense. But the hope and the wonder is that a change comes, a dawning, when you reach a place, when you step forward and choose wisely. You have acted upon your choice, you have stood your ground and have not weakened so that we can tell you to walk confidently carrying your dawning with you. Within you is the dawn, within you is the light, within you is the freedom, therefore with eye turned inward you are safe. Perhaps I speak to you behind many horizons but I can tell you that great is your hold upon the impenetrable secret which you have seized like children, not fully understanding, but with an instinct for this bright jewel which is all you really have. This dawn that you carry, clearing, clarifying, refreshing, is all that is needed for you. Live in it, abide in it, then let the leaves of your life blow free and high and you will find a true direction, a true control, ordered and inspired. “No harm shall come nigh thee” indeed, while you walk this Way, and the far-reaching of the Light you trust in is boundless and unknown to you as you sit here in this hour, in this century, in this universe.
Why you must not trouble yourselves with whys and wherefores is because it is a waste of time. You will be taught and learn as you go and as our need arises; and believe me, the fantastic heights of human knowledge are as nothing compared to the childlike instinct you have to go through all knowledge, all concepts to seize Light itself at its zenith. This is the known quantity. Seize and hold eternally to the highest and your feet will be guided through eternity, for it is your childlike faith that keeps your universe together.
