\nCERTITUDE<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

We must march on with
\nthe quiet certitude that what has to be done will be done. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>6
\nJuly 1954 <\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/p>\n

Certitude: assured and
\ncalm it never argues. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Certitude of victory: it
\nis not noisy but it is sure. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n


\nTHE DIVINE GRACE<\/a><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

The Supreme has sent his
\nGrace into the world to save it. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

It is the Divine Grace
\nthat must be prayed for <\/span>―<\/span> if justice were to manifest, very few would be those who could
\nstand in front of it. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Justice is the strict
\nlogical determinism of the movements of Universal Nature. Illnesses are this
\ndeterminism applied to the material body. The medical mind, basing itself upon
\nthis ineluctable Justice, strives to bring about conditions that should lead
\nlogically to good health. The moral consciousness acts in <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

the same way in the social body and tapasya<\/i><\/span> <\/i>in the spiritual domain. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Divine Grace alone
\nhas the power to intervene and change the course of Universal Justice. The
\ngreat work of the Avatar is to manifest the Divine Grace upon earth. To be a
\ndisciple of the Avatar is to become an instrument of the Divine Grace. The
\nMother is the great dispensatrix<\/span> <\/span>―<\/span> through identity <\/span>―<\/span> of the Divine Grace, with a perfect knowledge <\/span>―<\/span> through identity <\/span>―<\/span> of the absolute mechanism of Universal Justice. <\/span><\/p>\n

And through her
\nmediation each movement of sincere and confident aspiration towards the Divine
\ncalls down in response the intervention of the Grace. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>Who
\ncan stand before Thee, Lord, and say in all sincerity, \u201cI have never made a
\nmistake\u201d? How many times in a day we commit faults against Thy work, and always
\nThy Grace comes to efface them! <\/span><\/p>\n

Without the intervention
\nof Thy Grace, who would not often times have come under the merciless blade of
\nthe Law of Universal Justice?<\/span><\/p>\n

Each one here represents
\nan impossibility to be solved, but as for Thy Divine Grace all is possible. Thy
\nWork will be, in the detail as in the whole, the accomplishment of all these
\nimpossibilities transformed into divine realisations<\/span>.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>15
\nJanuary 1933 <\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/p>\n

Divine Grace, Thy
\ngoodness is infinite. We bow before Thee in gratitude. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Mother, <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

What is the rationale of Divine Grace? Is not the Supreme Mother
\nalways ready with Her Grace for those who can call it down? <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Yes.  <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span>Page <\/span>
\n―<\/span> 87<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>Is it not true that even most of the
\nseekers after God cannot call it down? And yet they can receive it if someone,
\na guru or avatar, has once called it down within him. Is it so? <\/span><\/i><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Yes. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

So can we conclude that Divine Grace works best when it is established
\nin the earth consciousness? Is it the aim of your endeavour<\/span>
\nto establish it permanently? <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Yes. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Please explain to me the whole principle. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

The Divine Grace cannot be explained
\nthrough words and mental formulas. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/i>7 April 1939<\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/p>\n

It is only the Divine’s
\nGrace that can give peace, happiness, power, light, knowledge, beatitude and
\nlove in their essence and their truth. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/i>30 November 1954<\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/p>\n

Who is worthy or
\nunworthy in front of the Divine Grace? <\/span><\/p>\n

All are children of the
\none and the same Mother. <\/span><\/p>\n

Her love is equally
\nspread over all of them. <\/span><\/p>\n

But to each one She
\ngives according to his nature and receptivity. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

\nPage
\n<\/span>
\n―<\/span> 88<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

Say <\/span>―<\/span> \u201cI have received his Grace: I must be worthy of it\u201d, and then all
\nwill be well. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Let us give ourselves
\nwithout reserve to the Divine, so best shall we receive the Divine Grace. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

The Grace is equally for
\nall. But each one receives it according to his sincerity. It does not depend on
\noutward circumstances but on a sincere aspiration and openness. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Right use of the granted
\nGrace: no deformation, no diminution, no exaggeration <\/span>―<\/span> a clear sincerity. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Call of the Divine
\nGrace: not noisy but persistent and very perceptible to those who know how to
\nlisten. <\/span><\/p>\n


\n <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n


\nTHE DIVINE HELP<\/a><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Whenever there is
\nsincerity and goodwill, the Divine’s help also is there. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/i>19 April 1954<\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/p>\n

Be ever one-pointed in
\nyour surrender and sincere in your <\/span>aspiration and you will constantly feel
\nthe presence of the Divine’s help and guidance. <\/span><\/p>\n

\nPage
\n<\/span>

<\/p>\n
\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

With the Divine’s help
\nnothing is impossible. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/i>7 June 1954<\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/p>\n

For nobody would sadhana<\/span> be possible without the Divine’s help. But the help
\nis always there. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

The help is always
\nthere. <\/span><\/p>\n

It is you who must keep
\nyour receptivity living. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Divine help is much
\nvaster than what any human being is able to receive. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/i>28 December 1972<\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/p>\n

Those who will be able
\nto become receptive by the mastery of the psychic upon the ego, will know what
\nthis help is and will have the full benefit of it. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Everyone is given his
\nchance and the help is there for all <\/span>―<\/span> but for each the
\nbenefit is proportionate to his sincerity. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Divine help: modest in
\nappearance, powerful in action. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
