Those who love are the disciplined ones who can walk through the Narrow streets of the cities of the Middle East where every form of temptation lurks and every aspect of the sins of human consciousness is displayed in these marts.
To walk through or to tarry and explore?
It is one thing to enjoy a shopping trip; it is another to become addicted to going shopping and to examining the manifestations of human consciousness when you ought to be meditating the light that burns within the shops of your very own chakras - the shops of the Buddha and the jewels of the Buddha that are in the jewel shop.
Precious ones of Fire, discipline means to withdraw energy (and with it your attention) from its encasement in the tomb of Matter. It means to sacrifice the flow of energy into lesser creations and to consecrate it to the one flame of Life. You have the pearl of great price! The pearl is the symbol of your Causal body, and the layer upon layer of the pearl are the spheres of consciousness that you have built layer upon layer around the central core of the I AM Presence.
Those who love are the disciplined light bearers who can walk through the narrow streets of the cities of the Middle East where every form of temptation lurks and where in these markets every aspect of the sins of human consciousness is displayed.

Dear ones of Fire, discipline means to withdraw energy (and thus your attention) from its enclosure in the tomb of Matter. It means to sacrifice the flow of energy directed toward lower creations and devote it to the one flame of Life. You have the priceless pearl! The pearl is the symbol of your Causal Body, and the layer after layer of the pearl are the spheres of consciousness that you have built layer after layer around the central core of the I AM Presence.
