Evolution

A struggle against the weight and obscurity of our being

January 4th 2023

We have to struggle against the weight and obscurity of our own being every day. Yes, each and every day. You might say, ‘How long will this last?’ As long as human beings reincarnate on earth, they must take on a physical body, and a physical body is by its very nature heavy and coarse because it has to abide by the laws of matter. As soon as their evolution is complete,* the bonds that tie human beings to the earth are severed and they are freed from this crushing weight and darkness. But it is no good deluding yourselves; as long as you are on earth there is no escape. However, those who are conscious and truly spiritual never give up the struggle; they cling to the Lord, to light and love, to hope and faith, and by means of prayer and meditation free themselves more and more often from the burden of physical matter.
