These are not my words; they are the words of the
Master who taught me. Without Him I could have
done nothing, but through His help I have set my
feet upon the Path. You also desire to enter the
same Path, so the words which He spoke to me will
help you also, if you will obey them. It is not
enough to say that they are true and beautiful; a
man who wishes to succeed must do exactly what is
said. To look at food and say that it is good will
not satisfy a starving man; he must put forth his
hand and eat. So to hear the Master’s words is not
enough, you must do what He says, attending to
every word, taking every hint. If a hint is not
taken, if a word is missed, it is lost forever;
for He does not speak twice.
Four qualifications there are
for this pathway:
What the Master has said to me
on each of these I shall try to tell you.
- Discrimination
- Desirelessness
- Good conduct
- Love
