Discipleship in the New Age II - Personal Instructions to Disciples - D.P.R.

To D. P. R.

January 1940

Life has been so difficult for you, brother of mine, that I hesitate (because I have an understanding of much that you are enduring) to lay upon you any further burden of self-discipline or more of the life of introspection. You have stood in the midst of your world and watched it come down, crashing around you; you have stood as a tower of strength to those who are tied to you in the closest links and have not [643] failed them; you have preserved your values clear whilst seeing the material values dissolve into thin air. That you still have a few personal glamors and are still taken in by your own high grade reactions to circumstance and people is of course true but I question whether anything is to be gained through your focusing your attention upon them at this time.

Stand steady, therefore, and be not unduly distressed. Avoid at least one glamor and that is the glamor that it is your task to shoulder all responsibilities and make all final decisions. Leave people, brother of old, the opportunity which you yourself so much welcome, of learning the needed lessons. Seek not unduly to lift and shield, for the shielding mother-complex is in itself a glamor.

My love and strength is at your service.
