To live always above, behind or at least in the mind would be good for my nature as well as for the Mother’s working in me.

If you can do that, it will be good.... It will need a strong will on your part to do it.

There is no need to bring down the help – it is there. Whether it [the will] makes the help effective and affects the opposite forces depends on the perseverance. You can see for yourself that it has momentary effects, but it needs a sustained effort before the effect can be more than temporary.

Help is given in whatever way is necessary or possible. It is not limited to Force, Light, Knowledge.

It [the help] diminishes as one gets higher and higher or rather fuller and fuller, being replaced more and more by the automatic action of the Force.
