Theos-Talk Archives (August 2007 Message tt00407)

mkr,

Keep that hope alive! It's so easy in these horrendous times to get 
discouraged, but we may be sure it is true, "The darker the shadows, 
the brighter the Light." The thing is that the shadows are a lot 
easier for us to see than the Light, blinded as we are by the veils 
of Maya. Nevertheless, the occultist can see past the illusion to the 
many millions of examples of the nobility of the human spirit, and to 
the tremendous help that is available to all from inner planes, as 
long as we try, in our own small ways, to do the right thing. We all 
know what that is, don't we? It is also said, and truly, that it is 
darkest just before the dawn. The more I surf the net the more I 
realize that there are huge numbers of people all over the world 
working for our mutual benefit and salvation, and since every effort 
for good helps the whole, what a wonderful encouragement it is to 
have access to the knowledge that we are not alone in our efforts. 

Keep the faith!
