Take stock of your life regularly

Sort through your activities, keep only what is essential

November 1st 2024
It is good to get into the habit of periodically taking stock of our lives. Why? Because, all too often the lives we lead, day in, day out become weighed down and clouded by all kinds of concerns and activities that contribute nothing spiritual to our lives.
Subjected to the influences that surround us, we forget that our time on earth is very short, and that all our material possessions, titles and social rank must be left behind. You will say that we all know this. Yes, everybody knows, but everybody forgets; even disciples of an Initiatic School are swayed by the influences around them. That is why it is vital that we take the time every now and again to look back over our lives, analyze the direction we are taking and the activities in which we are engaged, so that we can sort through them and keep only what is essential.*
