To stand is to have confidence.
To hear is to have opened the door of thy soul.
To see is to have attained perception of my works.
To speak is to have gotten the power of helping others.
To have conquered desire is to have acquired control of self.
To have self-knowledge is to have come unto me, whence thou art able impartially to view the personal (wo)man that was thyself.
To have seen thy soul in its bloom is to have had a momentary glimpse of that transfiguration, which shall eventually make thee more than (wo)man.
Stand aside in the coming battle, and though thou fightest, be not thou the warrior.
Look for me, and let me fight in thee.
Obey my orders for battle.
Obey me as if I were thyself.
My orders, thy desires—for I am thyself, yet infinitely more than thee.
Look for me, lest in the fever of battle thou pass me.
I will not know thee if thou knowest not me.
If thy cry come to me, lo! I will fight in thee and will fill the void in thee.
Then shalt thou be unwearied.
Without me thou shalt fall―
With Me thou canst not fall, for I am the Spirit.
Listen now to the song of life in thy heart.
Do not say, It is not there.
Listen deeper.
This song is in every breast―
It may be obscure, yet it is there.
Not the most wretched outcast but it is in him, for all are children of the Father, which is I.
Listen to my song, for while thou art yet but (wo)man, I shall not speak continually, and thy strength must sometimes be in memory of me.
Inquire now of the Earth matter―
The air―
The water―
The wind―
―A Being of Good to Phylos, the Thibetan
Seek the treasures of the snow.
My Peace I give unto thee.
