I44MEDITATIONFather! At every step, be it in the physical world, theastral or the mental, he tries to block the way of the aspiringsouls. The great Prophets and Messiahs and allothers have given their experiences of the fierce encountersthat they had with Satan, Mara, Ahriman, the evilspirits-Asuras, Demons and their agents in countlessways, fair or foul, whereby they try to obstruct the way,to win over the seekers after Truth by assurances ofworldly kingdoms and principalities; and if they do notsuccumb to these temptations, then by threats of violenceby fire, thunder, earthquakes, heaven splittings,cloud-bursts, lightnings and what have you. It is in predicamentslike these that one can only stand these trialswhen one has by his side his Guru or Murshid, for theGuru Power then draws and absorbs the disciple's soulinto Himself and takes him along the path of "RingingRadiance." For each soul the Brahman stakes his all,and does not yield, unless he is convinced that the seekerclings to the protection of the Master Power (Aka1 orTimeless) .Ib3Please do not bother about the negative powers and insteaddwell more on the divine protection of the MasterPower by keeping yourself immersed in the loving remembranceof the Master. Love coupled with inner humilityand self-effacement surmounts all such impediments~hats0ever.l'~
