Whole world is not looking for religion, it is looking for its own safe side.

Religion (Dharma) begins with an obliging nature.

People say, 'that bump caused me to trip', but the bump says, 'I am where I have always been. It's the wretched ones who can't see, they come my way and trip over!

If the new charging is going on [for next life by wrong belief that 'This is mine'], while [past life created] karma is being discharged in this life, then there is 'inner turmoil', but if there is only discharge [in this life and charging is stopped]; there is inner peace.

Changes can be made at the time of planning (charging of new karma), however once those plans [discharging of karma] start taking effect, they cannot be changed, because the world itself has attained the gross state from a subtle one. Meaning it has come into the ‘second stage’. It is not in the ‘first stage’. Changes can be made in the ‘first stage’.

The mind and the chit are discharging and the world has believed them to be ‘charge’. That is why they attempt to still the mind and the chit, but that is not possible.

To have indifference (nispruha) is also an offence and to be with inclination (saspruha) is also an offence. One should remain saspruha-nispruha (inclined towards attaining the Self-indifferent towards worldly life).

Where one has become indifferent (nispruha), there pure love has not arisen. And where there is no pure love, no work can be accomplished there.

Empathy of any kind is reactionary and there can never be pure empathy. Empathy is a relative thing. You should not have empathy; just have Pure Love (shuddha-prem). ‘You and I are one’ – keep it this way. Pure love is such a thing that it is not “effective” towards anyone. Empathy is inanimate, that is why it becomes “effective”. Pure love is animate. It is “uneffective”.
