Iimuth came in, and with her a man, whose appearance evoked admiration immediately, by reason of his beauty and congeniality. We sat in a half-circle on the sofa and chairs. The man looked very kindly at us and started to speak: "Our mission to you, which was initiated from above, is coming to an end. But here you have the opportunity to learn and experience things that will help you to be prepared. We must speak to you about a great many more things than we were able to before this, in view of the short time at our disposal, and other problems that we had to undertake to mitigate on your behalf. That should not trouble you, for we will stand by you always, and give you the light and help that will be absolutely essential to you." At this point Orthon came in, and with him, Zuhl. They sat down and remained silent while the man continued his discourse. "On Earth," he said earnestly, "there are many serious and pressing problems. The under- developed state of many parts of the world results in starvation and death through undernourishment and disease, as a consequence of poverty. That is a very heavy burden of guilt to be borne by those people who have a thriving culture. On Earth there are so many resources and means of alleviation, that everyone could be provided for, as needed, in an orderly fashion. But egotism and inordinate desire for wealth and power are the reason that the poor suffer terribly and are lost." Tina interrupted him and asked, "Why don't you intervene to save these people from starvation? Why isn't it possible to arrange things so that those who have the potential and the will to ameliorate these deplorable conditions might be enabled, with your help, to do so?" The man wrinkled his noble brow and sighed. "That we cannot do," he said emphatically, "and that grieves us sorely. If we were to inject ourselves so openly into the affairs of your planet, we would create much more serious and difficult problems. We have already told you that you are acquainted with only a part of the problem; actually, we have had to take action in order to bring about a more just distribution of blessings, and we have also had to intervene, to a degree, in your warlike confrontations. Everything would be different: we would be drawn into the tangled web of hatred and power-seeking that prevails on Earth, and we, too, would be acting out of a position of superior power and might. In contrast to that, the universal laws are in a position of being able to ultimately root out, once and for all, by way of divine patience, the evil that is within man. Those who suffer unjustly will be rewarded in measure far beyond your ability to comprehend.” "Therefore, the One who came to Earth and gave His life for His brothers said, ‘Blessed are the poor, for theirs is God's Kingdom! Blessed are those who now hunger, for they shall be filled! Blessed are you who now weep, for you shall rejoice!'. And He also said, 'Rejoice on that day and be glad, for great is your reward in Heaven!” "There are so many, and such good reasons, why we work on the spiritual root-cause of your condition; we work in the innermost hearts of those who suffer, and are the angels of comfort to those who bear heavy burdens. The Father has given us this assignment for the Earth, for this planet which we watch over and love, and which, in spite of all appearances, we are leading to the great healing, in order that all may find the One who longs to bring them to the heavenly dwelling that is their birthright. Did He not say to you before He died, 'You are from below, | am from above; you are of this world, | am not of this world?’ Before He parted, He said, ‘If | go, and prepare a place for you, | will come again and take you with me, so that where | am, there you may be also.” 59 inclusive love, such as is rarely felt on Earth.
