When you are in contact with Me and your greatest desire is to do My will, you will find that every action you take must be done not for the self but for the good of the whole. This life is only for completely dedicated souls who are willing to leave the self behind and become part of the whole. It is not easy for the majority of humanity to do, for many souls are not willing to give up their individuality. They want to cling on to what they call their rights, and do exactly what they want to do, without consideration for anyone else. Therefore, if ever you feel that life is not going your way and you are out of harmony with the whole, take time to find out what it is within you that is causing the disharmony, and never look around for a scapegoat you can blame. When you realise it is something within yourself that is causing it, you can rectify it without delay.
當我與上天相連接，和當我最大的渴望就是行使上天的意願時，我會發現我所採取的每一個行動都一定不是為了自我，而是為了全體的益處。這生活只為那些全然奉獻的靈魂們，那些願意將自我留在身後，成為整體的一部分的靈魂們所準備。要讓大部分的人類這樣去做是不容易的，因為很多靈魂都不願意放棄他們的個性。他們想要對他們叫做他們的「權利」的東西緊抓不放，並完全只做他們想要做的事情，不去考慮任何其他人。
因此如果我曾感到生活不是按照我的方式在進行，並且我與整體失去了和諧，花時間找出是什麼在我之中造成了這不和諧，永遠都不要試圖在周遭找出一個替罪羊來譴責。當我意識到是我內在的某些事物導致了它，我就能沒有延遲地改正它。
