Never at any time close your heart and mind. Never be afraid of the new, of the strange, of the unconventional. Be ready and prepared to listen to the intuition, to inspiration which may reveal something so completely new to you that it may not even have form or substance, and you may have to clothe it in words. Intellectual pride can be a handicap along this spiritual path and can be a real stumbling block to the truth. It is not the intellect you need; it is inspiration and intuition. The intellect comes from without, whereas inspiration and intuition come from within and cannot be influenced by anything without. Let your learning come from within; draw from all that you have within you. You will be amazed at what you contain. It is limitless because it comes from Me and I AM limitless and all that is of Me is limitless And eternal.

　　永遠不要在任何時候關上我的心靈之門。永遠不要害怕新的、陌生的、不依照慣例的事物。準備好去聆聽直覺和靈感的聲音，它們可能會揭示某些對我而言全新的事物，它可能沒有外形或實體，我可能需要賦予它語義。

　　知識上的驕傲能成為這靈性道路上的一個阻礙，它對通向真理能是一個真正的絆腳石。我需要的不是知識；我需要的是啓發和直覺。知識來自於外在，而啓發和直覺來自於內在，並且不會被外在的任何事物所影響。

　　讓我的學識從內在而來；從我內在所擁有的一切來汲取。我會為我所包含的感到驚訝。它是無限的，因為它來源於上天，而上天是無限的，上天的一切都是無限和永恆的。
