75. In Peace and Silence you Grow

The innermost light, shining peacefully and timelessly in the heart, is the real Guru. All others merely show the way.

The initiation into Reality must come from within.

When the shadow is seen to be a shadow only, you stop following it. You turn round and discover the sun which was there all the time.

Turn away from all that occupies the mind; do whatever work you have to complete, but avoid new obligations; keep empty, keep available.

Considering the endless list of factors required for anything to happen, one can only admit that everything is responsible for everything.

Perfection of the mind is the human task, for matter and spirit meet in the mind.

The real being is reflected in the mind undistorted. Matter is redeemed, spirit—revealed. The two are seen as one. They were always one.

To escape from prison one must unquestioningly obey instructions sent by those who work for one's release.

Obey the teacher and brave the dogs.

Words based on truth, if fully tested, have their own power.

In the attentive and thoughtful reader they will ripen and bring out flowers and fruits.
