We have to adopt the sun as our model, and strive to resemble it more and more in order to become luminous, warm-hearted and vibrant with life as it is. Of course, it is not possible to attain the fullness of perfection manifested by the sun, but the work we put into this is in the direct line of initiation. Instead of being bogged down in old, useless, outdated notions, it is far better to go and contemplate the sun and strive to reach the ideal of becoming like it. As I have already told you, there is a law of mimicry, according to which all creatures end by resembling their own environment. If a person often spends time, a lot of time, contemplating the sun, if he loves and understands the sun and soaks up its light with all his being, gradually he will become like it. And if he knows how to collect and condense the sun's rays and store them up in his solar plexus, he will even be able to draw on them when he needs to and, in this way, become tireless. It is a real science that needs to be studied, a real training to be followed, and those who take it seriously will find themselves blessed with many rewards every day.
