Only one who understands, first and foremost, that he is a child of the celestial Father and the divine Mother can become an initiate. He does not behave like these so-called philosophers or scientists who find the idea of God outmoded and believe they are being intelligent and showing a free mind by leaving God, in order to live an independent life away from him. They think, 'To be a child of God, what nonsense! We are adults.' Well, no, they are not adults but refractory babies. The true adult, in the initiatic sense, never leaves his celestial parents to seek independence; he always wants to be nourished, educated and protected by them. I tell you this: it is only babies, ignorant and stupid people who demand independence and freedom far from the Lord. And then they wonder why they are sick, both physically and psychically. This is not hard to understand; when someone separates from God, he is no longer protected or sustained. All those who have left their divine parents are haunted by troubles and distress. So, be like children and cling to your celestial Father and Mother, and trust them wholeheartedly.
