To Be Like Thee
The aspirant asked the Master: "Why is my progress so slow? What must I do... when, in spite of attending to all that is asked of me, still I have yet to achieve your level of higher understanding?"
Said the Master to the aspirant: "By itself... to do what is asked of you has no power, in itself, to change the level of your being... should that be your wish; it is only what you ask of yourself that matters."
"But Master, how do I know what to ask of myself?"
"Only by being watchful in a new way."
"But where, what am I to see?"
"What is right before your eyes; but this much will I help you to see. When you love the Light as evidenced by your Master -- and for whose Light he does all that must be done, accordingly -- then, will you enter into His world; and, in sharing this one true Light -- you will see that you've become as the Master... and that the Master has always been in you."
