| The Tests Are Flying Full and Sure You ought to realize that in a situation of upset- ness it is necessary to take some deep breaths. For in the presence of anxiety, the heart begins to palpitate and people begin to breathe in a short-breath manner, thus adding to the absence of control. You take a deep breath, you release it, you go to the heart, and you give no instantaneous answers, yes or no—no instantaneous reactions or solutions—but quietly turn within. There are many ways of handling this. If someone is ferocious like a mad dog, you may say, Wait one minute, please. I shall return momentarily [applause] You see, beloved ones, the tests are flying full and sure. We want you to experience the sense of mastery, of dominion, the enormous pleasure of having finished a day and dealt with that force, that driving force of irritation, and conquered and risen above every foible of the senses directed against your heart. “May You Pass Every Test 127 They would steal your life.

And they will steal from you your sense of worthiness, your sense of the mantle of being the disciple of Sanat Kumara.

And don’t enter the vortex of another’s anxiety, else you will become confused. Remember that anything that seeks to taunt SAINT GERMAIN—MASTER ALCHEMIST you from the seat of the Buddha in the secret chamber of the heart must be noted as the enemy not the person necessarily, for it is often a loved one, but the force attempting to use that one. Thus, it is your challenge to liberate that one as well as yourself from the human nonsense of the moment. Download 4.17 Mb. Share with your friends:
