"There are many people who seek to venture into the invisible world without really knowing what it is or what creatures inhabit it. And often, very often, the phenomena of apparitions – spirits materializing – that they witness in spirit séances are produced not by beings of light but by malefic creatures, larvae, elementals, which enjoy leading human beings astray. Therefore the messages that come through in these séances can be erroneous or even downright false. Those who wish to make contact with spirits should know they run the risk of being duped, and even if they receive correct answers it may be quite by chance. Beings capable of making contact with the invisible world are very rare, and there are very few true clairvoyants."

WORD FOR THE DAY Thursday, Nov. 26 |
|
Everyday, think as you wake up:
Today I am fortunate to have woken up.
I am alive. I have a precious human life.
I am not going to waste it.
I am going to use all my energies
to develop myself to expand my heart
out to others for the benefit of all
beings. |

"An astrological chart merely gives a few clues about people’s destiny; so, even if it presents many negative aspects, these should not be seen as absolutely predestined. The truth is, the human spirit is above the stars and planets, beyond their influence; the spirit is free, all-powerful. Whatever configurations the stars may have drawn for you, beyond the region where destiny is master your spirit reigns, and destiny can do nothing against it. Your only way of escaping destiny is therefore to place yourself in the service of the spirit. Do not give the excuse that you were ‘born under a bad star’ so you can remain forever weak, lazy and idle. Granted, you have karmic debts to pay, but those debts only represent a second in eternity. You should not allow a single moment now to dim the light of the spirit. Whatever happens, you must remain convinced there is a spark shining within you that nothing and no one can snuff out or even obscure."

WORD FOR THE DAY Wednesday, Nov. 25 |
|
Outwardly one's life may suffer
every kind of limitation, from bodily
paralysis to miserable surroundings,
but inwardly it is free in meditation
to reach out to a sphere of light,
beauty, truth, love, and power. |

"All the efforts you make to enhance your physical and material life will not make you much happier if you do not first try to get to know and accept the truths that will improve your inner life. Whatever you achieve on the outside, you will never be fulfilled, for fulfilment is only found through personal effort: an effort of will, of thought and of the imagination. Besides, you know this – you’ve experienced it so many times! You find satisfaction in everything you yourself manage to accomplish, whereas everything you have received without doing anything – even money – doesn’t give you the same joy. Yes, people know this, but they still continue to expect joy to come from outside. That’s why, in spite of all they possess, they still feel poor, dissatisfied and empty. Therefore, no matter what you possess or what is given to you, never forsake inner work. Right till the end, don’t give up on it!"

WORD FOR THE DAY Tuesday, Nov. 24 |
|
There is only one real deprivation,
I decided this morning, and that
is not to be able to give one's
gifts to those one loves most. |

"Do not be in a hurry to declare your love to someone. It is your love that makes you happy and provides an impetus, a meaning to your life; but since the one you love is not yet a perfect being, if they know your feelings they can easily spoil everything without meaning to. They’ll say to themselves, ‘There’s an open door, let’s take advantage of it.’ It’s only natural. Then when you feel you haven’t been understood, you will suffer, you’ll be disappointed, and then what will be left of your love? You must understand, it’s the love that is important, more important than the person you love, so don’t go sacrificing it for the sake of someone who may well destroy it if you make the mistake of revealing it to them. You will be able to talk about it when you are both well prepared and very strong. But until then, don’t say anything, just keep loving; it’s your love that nourishes you, that gives you zest, the taste for life, the desire to overcome all obstacles. So, do not lose it."
