I Tell You The Truth,

Though One Should Live Through All The Time From Adam And All The Time To Come Before The Judgment Day Doing Good Works, Yet He Who, Energising In His Highest, Purest Part, Crosses From Time To Eternity, Verily In The Sight Of God This Man Conceives And Does Far More Than Anyone Who Lives Throughout All Past And Future Time, Because This Now Includes The Whole Of Time. One Master Says That In Crossing Over Time Into The Now Each Power Of The Soul Will Surpass Itself. . . .

If The Seal Is Pressed Completely Through The Wax So That No Wax Remains Without Being Impressed By The Seal, Then It Becomes Indistinguishably One With The Seal. Similarly The Soul Becomes Completely United With God.

The Very Best And Highest Attainment In This Life Is To Remain Still And Let God Act And Speak In You.

Know That When You Seek Anything Of Your Own, You Will Never Find God, Because You Do Not Seek God Purely. You Are Seeking Something Along With God, And You Are Acting Just As If You Were To Make A Candle Out Of God In Order To Look For Something With It. Once One Finds The Things One Is Looking For, One Throws The Candle Away. This Is What You Are Doing.

To Be Right, A Person Must Do One Of Two Things: Either He Must Learn To Have God In His Work And Hold Fast To Him There, Or He Must Give Up His Work Altogether. Since, However, We Cannot Live Without Activities That Are Both Human And Various, We Must Learn To Keep God I Everything We Do, And Whatever The Job Or Place, Keep On With Him, Letting Nothing Stand In Our Way.
