It is said of some exceptional beings that they bear a mark on their forehead which distinguishes them from all others. This is true, but it is not a mark that a visible or invisible entity has placed there from the outside. It comes from within and is a sign of the bearer's spiritual realisation, because everything a person lives, his thoughts, feelings, states of consciousness, actions, and so on, is registered and leaves traces not only around him, but also and especially within him. The manifestations of our psychic life impregnate, shape, and form the whole of our being. Yes, it is a law: each time we manifest kindness, justice, patience, or love, these virtues are inscribed within us, and not only are they inscribed in us, but they create around us a sort of magnetic field that attracts from space beneficent forces which protect us. And because in certain human beings this magnetism is very powerful, it could be said that they are marked with a special seal.
