If people thought to protect their life, to preserve it in the greatest purity, then they would be better able to realize their plans, because enlightened life is the source of all energy. Unfortunately they do not know this truth and they waste their lives. They think, because they are alive, that everything is allowed. They say to themselves: ‘Well, since we have been given life, let's make the most of it.' And they enjoy it so much they become exhausted and unwell. They should start to live according to a different philosophy. They should begin to realize that merely their way of thinking already digs into their vital energy reserves, affecting the quintessence of their being. By using and abusing their lives, by allowing themselves to break divine laws, and even human laws, they are destroying their reserves and they will soon find themselves impoverished. Perhaps not on a material, physical level, but inwardly. Life is and continues to be the most important thing and those who are not intelligent, not enlightened, destroy the source of their capabilities, their joys, and their inspiration.
