AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Why do people make us feel what we think is impossible?

Whatever has come within the range of human thought and feelings, whatever has entered the realm of human imagination, whatever has taken hold of human will and faith has already begun to realise itself. What is however uncertain is how long it will take as that depends upon how much one-pointed his will is.

Also we must remember that the higher we think and imagine the longer it is likely to take. Another thing we must know is that there is generally a difference between the thought and imagination we have of something and the actual form it may take. This is so because our thought is one of the factors, not the only one or the highest and truest idea of it. If it fails to realise it is simply because its time for realisation has not yet come. For example at one time people thought that it is impossible to get freedom from the British or that it is impossible to fly. But a few people had the thought of it and eventually it became possible.

But not everybody is fortunate to think of high and beautiful possibilities. So they think it is impossible. They are limited in their mind and do not know the power of thought and will. Hence they think it is impossible and hence it becomes so much more difficult for them since their thought and will does not support what is trying to express.

affectionately,

What helps handling these strong sexual impulses is to stay as busy as one can be, especially with a work that can be done in the Mother’s service. The other thing is to do…
