"That which can liberate one from his destiny is one's love for God through which one will learn the Law of service. When a person decides to begin to serve God, one frees oneself of the burden of his difficult destiny, the dark slavery into which he has fallen. One's chains will fall from his feet."

"Take a knee and cut the bond which keeps you bound up by your shortcomings. As soon as you rid yourselves of them, you will receive the new. This is the only may by which you can obtain the correct relationship to the Primary Cause, to your Teacher and to your neighbors."

"When Christ says that we need to renounce ourselves, He means that we should go out from the dark room of our selfishness and enter into the Law of correspondence and Love."

One puts both hands in front of the chest with closed fists and moves them apart powerfully. This movement destroys everything that was holding you back. This is the liberation from the old and the gaining of the new. It is entering into freedom. We can also call it the destruction of all unnatural relations, the breaking away from the old.

This movement awakens in us those forces through which the unnatural karmic ties of the old can be eradicated in order to enter into the life of freedom. This is an appeal for liberation, an appeal to leave the prisons. It says to us: "Leave the life of eternal sunset and enter the Life of eternal sunrise. Drop the chains of death and enter the Freedom of Life. Come out of the dark caves where love does not exist and enter into the joy of Love." Through this exercise, a powerful impulse is transmitted into the world to work in the consciousness of all humankind.
