Believing if it intercede
It shall at length be found.

No priest - nor any Spiritual School - can stand between you and the valley-spirit, between you and the God in you. That covenant must be forged by you yourself, in self-authority. So if, now, you have reached maturity and are weary of strife, you are free to reach for that absolute happiness.
And if you do not want to be saved now, but you do in a thousand years' time, then after those thousand long years of woe you will still see that same love waiting for you.
Fences that you cannot climb
In all that you can never change
I’m the one you're looking for.
An absence of perspective can be devastating in its consequences. It can, for example, lead to a situation in which the dominant species of a planet - the only one known to be inhabited - located in a remote backwater of the universe, can indulge in its darkest, most reckless and destructive impulses, plunging the world into chaos and threatening the very survival of its only home and the continued existence of every life form that has the misfortune to share the same sky and breath the same air.
And when your soul, the flame, the spark, meets with the divine fuel that is so pure and so strong, it results in immense enlightenment.

That is fine if you want nothing more from life than the journey, as a personality, from the cradle to the grave. But it is not fine at all - it is crazy - if you are seeking and aiming at the life of absolute reality. For you cannot possibly participate in, or gain access to, the great reality with your intellectual consciousness.
Now it seems to me that those whom God brings to a certain clear knowledge, love very differently than do those who have not reached it. This clear knowledge is about the nature of the world, that there is another world, about the difference between the one and the other, that the one is eternal and the other a dream.
Heavenly hurt it gives us
We can find no scar
But internal difference
Where the Meanings are

Because the new soul rises in vibration into the spirit soul field, and then that microcosm, through that process of liberation, most probably does not need to come back in that process of reincarnation.
Water is a sublime, universal symbol of the power-radiations of the new life. Just as the ordinary human being lives and moves in the electromagnetic radiation-field of dialectics, so the pupil who, through the sacrifice of the self, has established a liberating link with the spirit of the valley, the God in him, will enter and live in the new electromagnetic radiation-field.
God is pleased when your love realises it is part of something oceanic, and begins to move with the whole.

If the Divine Seed, Divine Essence, Divine Remnant, Atman, Spirit Spark Atom, Rose of the Heart in the core of the core of our being could speak, what would it say.
The candidate for the new life opens his gates to the light and power of the Gnosis, and over him comes the breath of life. And then he is so absorbed by it that he not only rises above all affliction, anxiety, worry, fear and limitation, but they also lose all power to harm him. He enters the peace of the soul.
The key to the Path is faith, that is to say : the union of the spirit-spark atom in the heart with the pure Divine light. When this gate has been opened and the new power can enter the system of the pupil and work in him, he is ready for the path of renewal.
Then, “the great lamp of the All-consciousness” will begin to burn for the pilgrim, and he will be imbued with this divine radiance which, as a consolamentum, will raise him up out of the night of his suffering.

One who is tired of this habit in himself should live more in his heart and try to develop there a calm, intuitive feeling about the rightness of things.
But friends could we possibly detach from the idea that the earthly human being is the eternal being. Could we allow the thought to rise up within us that there is something that is bigger than we are, something that does have eternal value and of which we as earthly human beings are partaking only temporarily.
If you do not ask these questions in an intellectual way, but because you are driven by an inner need, because these issues are really problems for you; if these questions well up from the deepest depths of your being, then the urge to seek will emerge in you of its own accord.
