LEAVES of Morya s garden

is in convulsion?

We know the course of the battle—the Plan of the

Creator cannot be altered.

From the Beginning the dark ones struggled.

From the Beginning We conquered.

232. The path of virtue is not a singing of psalms, but

labor and service.

If Karma is violated, it will react against you.

The travail of the spirit is the one ladder on the

shortest path.

The suffering of a decade is crowded into one day in the

lives of the chosen ones.

Better a full cup of misery than a life of mild sadness.

Pay your accounts in the hostelries on the way, and with

a bow they will carry your trunks onto the ships.

233. A miracle occurs without warning, but naught

happens by accident.

Again I repeat—be not afraid.

A new attack, but do not fear.

234. In your life you may pass by the predestined

places without heeding the calls.

By one gesture can We remove obstacles, and help.

But Our gestures will not erase Karma.

Our Shield will protect you against the assaults of the

dark forces.

But the settlement of old accounts is unavoidable.

The Hand of Fate leads towards the Good.

235. Whence dreams are begotten,

Where sacrifices are extolled,

Where the Invisible Light glorifies labor,

Thence come My Blessings.

In the whispering of leaves,

In the splash of waves,

In the murmur of the breeze,

I am with you.

Amidst the cruel and the dark ones,

Amidst treason of the spirit,

Amidst strife and sorrow,

My Shield is over you.

236. Carry the light, and do not look back.

237. Love even the knot-grass. God created it.

Understanding is concealed in the heart.

238. To sever the ties, to weigh Our Forces on the

balance, to cut yourself off from access to Us,

is dangerous.

The approach to Light is a serious matter.

Hostile powers surround each of your actions;

as soon as morning consciousness succumbs to

twilight, then can the wings of darkness touch you.

Darkness may steal unawares

upon those who stray.

It is easy to miss one's footing in the mountains.

It is better not to reject the Guiding Hand

than to wait anxiously for the rescuer's lantern.

Grateful even for a dog's bark are the lost ones.

Is it not better to walk with a guide in the glistening

snow?

You must understand, you must remember, you

must know.

239. The common highway does not lead

to the Holy Mountain.

I regard an act of treason as the most heinous.

240. Joy is the manifestation of the Creator's Power,

illumining a world in darkness.

And Our Teaching enables all to share it, through labor.

241. A new day dawns over the earth.

The present hour is not a stream but a vortex.

Each personal world reflects the flaming sky

aglow with the Fire that devours old forms.

The Wisdom of the Creator prophesies a New World.

By fiery destruction He creates.

And can we, the witnesses, realizing the Great Design,

count ourselves afflicted?

The deaf and the blind, and the many sedentary ones,

are only bystanders. The Creator cometh!

242. Your life, is it not a fairy tale?

The flying carpets are spread,

And you will soar with intrepid spirit.

Even the bears know why they must swim together.

And how many are the useful examples scattered

around us!

You must endure together, knowing full well Whose Shield

is over you.

243. Have no doubt, no regret, no fear—the future

is ahead of you!

Four guardians, protect the Chalice of the

Archangel!

With new wisdom is filled the Ark manifested unto you.

To the mouth of time did I give the command to bring

you onto My Path.

Under an earthly veil did I conceal your true faces.

I filled you with the joy of ascent.

And I unveiled the memory of the forgotten scroll.

I enhanced your perception

and opened to you the books.

Approach and receive.
