As a conscious entity, the human being stands at the frontier between the lower and higher worlds. If he is not vigilant, he is drawn in by the dark forces of the lower world which crush and devour him. And once he is devoured he is thrown out, because nothing is left of him. Whereas if he is attracted and absorbed by the forces of the higher world, everything brightens and he becomes a centre of luminous, powerful and beneficial currents. While you must strive to escape the attraction of the lower world, however, you must not abandon yourself completely to the attractions of the higher world. Your mission is to work on earth using the forces of heaven, without losing sight of the balance that must be maintained between heaven and earth. Since you are here on earth, you must not abandon it prematurely. If you upset this balance in an attempt to hasten your return to heaven, you will perhaps live in the immensity, in the light, but you will fail to fulfil your mission, which is to work on earth with the resources of heaven.
