DOES OUR LIGHT SHINE IN THE DARK?

Well, if there is little developed from the higher and everything consists of a lower substance, there is nothing left of the soul.
There are jackals and hyenas wandering in the streets of his thoughts. If this is his only source of life, the thoughts and feelings have become completely perverse and his behaviour is then equal to the jackals' and the hyenas'. When our lower thinking rules, the material body is its ruler's slave; the inner man has to learn by experience. That's why the inner man gives his rule to the beast until the insight is born within him, so that the expression of the negative nature eventually leads to nothing.

Insight in our true being can deliver us from the painful chain of sangsara, the turning wheel of birth and death. Between our incarnations, the old snake can be captured, because the soul has learnt to live independent from the lower nature. Let the sun shine in our aura and look at the birds as if they were our higher thoughts and prayers. Interpret the personalities which are expressed by our ego as lower basiselements; as food for the birds. In this way, the residua of all the bad we have built up in many lives, disappears.
Eventually, one will understand to what false images and feelings one has been reacting and then one wishes not to do this anymore.
