” Strenght lies within the mind. You must therefore look deeper and deeper within yourselves, meditate to reach the divine principle within you. One day, a spring will begin to flow and you will feel nourished, supported, flooded with inexhaustible forces.”
OMRAAM MIKHAËL AÏVANHOV
“It is because it is very important for a spiritualist to know how to eliminate impurities from their psychic organism that purification exercises must play such a large role in their life, and not only purification by physical means: breathing exercises, ablutions, fasting, etc., but purification through spiritual means: concentration, prayer.
Through these exercises, they introduce into themselves a substance that breaks down all foreign and harmful elements so that divine life can begin to flow again.
That is why every day, several times a day, think about cleansing and purification. Let the water flow within you, the pure water of Heaven. Not only will this purity bring you all blessings, but your presence will also be beneficial to others: you will do good to all the creatures you meet, you will enlighten them and you will also put them in communication with Heaven.
*** If you decide to work on yourself to purify yourself and make your subtle bodies receptive and sensitive, you will realize that there is in fact no separation between Heaven and you. “
OMRAAM MIKHAËL AÏVANHOV
Concentrate the mind upon the Masters as ideals and facts – living, active, beneficent Beings, working in and on the plane of causes. Meditate upon this exclusively, and try to reach up to Them in thought. If you find the mind has strayed, bring it back again to the subject of meditation. The mind will stray more or less, at first, and perhaps for a long time to come, but do not be discouraged at the apparent results if unsatisfactory to your mind. The real results may not at once be apparent, but the work is not lost, even though not seen. It is more than likely that the work in this direction will be perceived by others rather than yourselves. Never mind the past, for you are at the entrance of a new world to you as persons. You have set your feet on the path that leads to real knowledge.
