“The victory of the Spirit lies in its striving with all its strength toward the heights, even in the midst of all earthly difficulties. It could not affirm itself in a state of comfort or ease. Thus, disciples can prove their spiritual strength through the labors and challenges of everyday life. Without this inner struggle, how could the highest levels be attained and consciousness refined? How many hardships are encountered along this path! Yet every act that turns the spirit away from worldly desires is a higher affirmation. The Path to the Fiery World passes through the labors of the spirit and through earthly deprivations, and the greatest attainments are achieved only when one detaches from the phenomena of the world in search of higher ones. When it is said, ‘Victory will come to the one who has known every conflict and has sought Knowledge,’ it means that theirs will be the conquest of Fire.
