Spirit - unassailable region in the human being

07/08/2004

Of necessity, every human being who incarnates on earth has mistakes to correct and debts to pay, and this is what we call karma. So many initiates, saints and prophets have suffered in order to rectify the mistakes they have made in previous incarnations! But this did not prevent their soul and spirit from living in divine splendour because, despite the obstacles, despite the adversity, they worked tirelessly to maintain their contact with the divine world. An initiate's greatness lies in the fact that he never loses sight of an invincible region within himself: the region of his spirit, in which he can take refuge and work. Once he has succeeded in rising to that place, even if he is assailed by karma, he senses that he is above it, always beyond it. When karma tries to limit him, he frees himself; when it tries to cast gloom over him, he remains in the light. Despite all opposition, he continues his work.
