DISCIPLE'S SAFETY

DISCIPLE'S SAFETY

 

The world is a school and since we were born, we have been invited in it. Be happy that you were born on Earth and study. God, who has created the world, has foreseen everything.

 

The same law as with eating exists in knowledge. You are hungry; eat, but do not overeat. You will be hungry tomorrow again, eternity is before you. You want to eat up everything - leave some for another time and for others. You are studying the most difficult music now - the music of Life. The entire world is a school for discipline of human souls.

 

The safety of the disciple is in studying. We cannot solve all problems in this transient life. But that thought, which remains in your mind and nothing can darken it, is a high mountain peak - it is on what you can rely in the concrete case; it is the Reality.

 

One teacher has taught you a lesson and you have to learn it in order to thank him. Be with high spirits and study God's laws. Study! What is achieved by somebody in one way, you cannot achieve it in the same way - ways are various, things do not happen in one and the same way. The example of somebody else is only encouragement for you.

 

It is not an easy job until we break up with the old. We have to pass through fire and not burn out; pass through the sin and not get dirty. Use the conditions, given to you by God .Learn from the virtues, which you have and from the mistakes, which you have. You all shall strive for establishing a harmony with the Rational creatures. Man's entire life shall be a preparation for the Spirit, which is coming. In spiritual life, after man has worked for a long time for the others, he shall also work for him himself. Make small attempts, in order the results to be seen. You will work from inside through praying and contemplation, in order to increase your perception power. You shall see God's providence everywhere and the beauty of springs, trees, rivers, and grit and follow their example.

 

It is not in your interest to be praised. The biggest mastery is man to learn to live - this is a whole science. Everybody has to develop his intuition, in order to be able to predict, through which lots of misfortunes will be avoided. There are forgotten talents from the past in everybody, which you have not developed and they stay aside for one life, two lives, three lives. God will judge you about the talents, which He has given to you and which you have not polished. The man of God shall know what the world know and have one plus on top of that - to know something more.

 

One, who has not finished the school on Earth, shall finish it, because he cannot enter the Divine until he passes his final examination. If you do not understand Earth matters, how will you understand the Heaven ones? One, who studies on Earth, will be send to an upper school, and one, who does not study - to a lower school.

 

Man shall be thankful and have the consciousness of a child, who has a lot to study. Man shall pass through all these visible stars to study. So much work is coming for him! How much time it will take him to pass through all these solar systems! Man shall know what is needed in the concrete case. It is impossible he to know everything, and he cannot know everything, because he has not created the world. The pleasantness is not in understanding everything, but to understand the small, which you need in the concrete case. For example, when you go to the spring, it is not important to know how water has appeared and from where it comes; in that case the essential small thing is to drink water, and later the rest. Let man start working with the small, which he has. There are months, in which plants bloom and grow ripe, and there are months, in which fruits are gathered. This is especially for all, who look for the way. I speak symbolically. Those, who have worked more, have developed Divine gifts. Advanced souls are those, who have worked.

 

Each soul, who comes from the Invisible world, brings new conditions for development of the Divine. The mistake is in us, when we have come to Earth, where there are various vehicles; we have get on a buffalo cart and say that it goes slowly. Get off the slow vehicle at the next station and get on another - a faster one.

 

Most of the rules are not given to everybody for two reasons: first, because some people will abuse and will use them to take money from people and for personal aims. Second, because they will not thank God.

 

It is hard to say what man can be, because he is not a finished process yet.

 

Three things are needed - Love, Knowledge and work. The most important things are to be studied from now on. When man studies God arranges his things. Our old views are not in conformity with the Divine ones, which will come. What are whole sacks of old bank-notes, which worth nothing, for? Somebody expects something without making efforts - as a lottery ticket. No, it shall be worked. Somebody else comes and asks me: "Will I finish high school?" I ask him: "Do you have girl-friends towards whom you have special feelings?" - "I have." I tell him: "It will be hard for you to finish high school." I tell fortunes, because his mind is distracted - today laughing, tomorrow laughing and he will not finish. God wants work, studying. Teachers love assiduous students, who study. When there is a capable student in the class, the teacher loves him and because of him he teaches with inspiration the others, too.

 

Apply as much as you have understood. Apply microscopic things each day and do not feed negative thoughts any more. Do not talk about negative things, but about positive ones. Read the prophets. You have to learn something each day - not to become scientists, but to study.

 

From Love to Light, from Light to Freedom and from Freedom to Love? When this circle is completed, man gets younger, and one, who does not know it, gets older and dies. Each of us has to have such a philosophy: nothing to trouble you. Talks shall be studied and applied. They will teach you from outside and from inside; it is said: "Spirit will come and teach you everything." The main obstacle is in us; the obstacles from the surrounding environment come after that.

 

The whole nature is full of material for study. Watch the rabbit how it understands geometry - when there is no more than a kilometre, before the hound reaches it, the rabbit chooses a centre and begins to spin and spin, and after that it jumps off a few meters aside, and the hound remains to spin at that place in circle. If the life of Nature is studied, it can be seen through what phases man shall pass. In order to come to a blessed state, he shall pass through lots of unfavourable phases. Let's take for example the butterfly: before perching from flower to flower, it is a caterpillar, exposed to big dangers, and when it becomes a butterfly, it forgets. When it lays eggs, caterpillars hatch from the eggs again. So, when we come to that sublime consciousness, we go to the old consciousness again later. Hence, it is necessary to stay in the sublime consciousness, which comes to us.

 

Everything outside relates to something inside you. And we, by thinking that there is no relation, pass like strangers in the world. The connection between the external Nature and us has lost. If you go to a pear tree, take a fruit and thank it, in this way, you make a connection with Nature. The Spiritual stands somewhere and I tell you where: "Go and take water along this road." If you wait for somebody else to bring you, this is misunderstanding. When man studies well, he will become a saint; when people start learning from saints, they will become people. Some people look for the Divine in the otherworld, but the Divine is a well ordered life. Some people asked me if there is an afterlife; I told them: "There is no afterlife. What afterlife? Man has taken off his clothes and has gone. He is again in this world, because the clothes are not something essential."

 

Nothing shall impede your mind and heart. For example, you look for God and think of what people would say. This is not important. The experience, which you gain, is important. If you yourself do not try the meal, you will not know what it is like. The little, which you have understood, is worth more than the large wealth, which, however, is not understood. When you give an apple to a child, it will have a bigger influence on him than thousands of pictures with painted trees.

 

You all have to develop certain psychic powers. Otherwise, you will get stupid, you will not be able to benefit from the goods, which Nature has. At first you can make elementary experiments: for example, you have gone out for a walk, but a storm is coming, find a way to withstand. You will see to what extend you will be able to withstand. After that wish for the storm to calm down; if it stops, your experiment is successful.

 

Were you at that experiment when we were climbing to Musala? There was a thunderstorm then and we passed through an electricity zone. Sparkles and fires came out of our clothes. The detectives, who wanted to keep an eye on us, remained down. They said: "It is madness to go up." It brightened up. You witnessed so many experiments and you still lose belief.
