Become like the sun

Like the sun, which sheds its light and warmth throughout the universe, you can have an effect on all regions in space by means of your thoughts and feelings. During this journey you will meet a host of creatures, and you will greet them and be greeted back. Realize that this is what true life is: exchanges, and the uninterrupted communication with millions of creatures.
Become like the sun… Cherish this ideal, and let it become so important to you that your whole being is on fire with it, is illuminated by it. Little by little, you will feel all the seeds of the divine life growing within you. Without forcing anything, without even thinking about it, you will express the best of yourself. Your whole being must be directed toward the sun – the spiritual sun. Once it is shining in your soul, you become like the earth in spring, when all of nature comes to life again…..

So, take the sun as your model, as it sheds light, warmth and life. You will say there are other models: a scientist perhaps, an artist, a philosopher, a hero, a saint or a spiritual Master, and they seem so much more accessible than the sun! Of course, and you will no doubt be influenced by their qualities and virtues. But in reality you will always be missing something. Even if you take the greatest Masters of humanity as your models, you will still not have the image of true perfection.
The image of true perfection is the sun, and if you take it as a model and wish, like the sun, to bring light, warmth and life to all creatures, you will undergo a deep transformation. Your light, your warmth and your life will never equal the sun’s, of course, but simply wanting to acquire them will transport you to the celestial regions, where you will work wonders. The desire to give light, warmth and life like the sun will make you yourself more light-filled, warmer and more alive
