"Most often, human beings use their ima­gination solely to satisfy their lower desires. One will want to embrace a woman, another to achieve political ambitions and a third to clinch a business deal by eliminating competitors… and their imagination immediately sets to work, picturing the success of their enterprise. And, in fact, it could well be that, by dint of imagination, they will end up succeeding, but what good will that be for their evolution?

Disciples learn to use their imagination to ennoble themselves, to reconstruct themselves and work for the good of the whole world. Why not imagine human beings all over the earth becoming good, intelligent, honest and beautiful, and abundance and joy reigning everywhere? If you work for years, imagining nothing but positive images, they will begin to be realized. And if those who are working in the same direction become more and more numerous, they will be realized even more quickly."
