It is often said that human beings don’t amount to much, and to all appearances this is true. But in reality, God has given all men and women the means to make unlimited progress… until they become like him. By cultivating a deplorable mentality, however, they prevent themselves from using this potential; it is as if they were anaesthetized. Yet no one is absolutely bound hand and foot; even the most limited creatures have the means to surpass themselves, and the very moment they decide to turn their sights and thoughts toward the Lord they begin to see their potential. Everything depends completely on how they direct their desires. If it is the material plane that is essential to them – success, money and pleasure – and there is no room in their head for spiritual values, they will of course remain weak and limited. But the moment they decide to give priority to love, beauty and the spirit – with no thought as to whether they will be rich or poor, well dressed or in rags, honoured or ridiculed – everything becomes possible for them!
