“If you look at yourself carefully, you will see that one always carries in oneself the opposite of the virtue one has to realize. You have a special aim, a special mission, a special realization which is your very own, each one individually, and you carry in yourself all the obstacles necessary to make your realization perfect. Always you will see that within you the shadow and the light are equal: you have an ability, you have also the negation of this ability. But if you discover a very black hole, a thick shadow, be sure there is somewhere in you a great light. It is up to you to know how to use the one to realize the other. And if you observe carefully you will see that it is always thus with everyone. When you see a very black shadow somewhere in you, something truly painful, you can be sure that you also have the corresponding possibility of light. This is a fact very little spoken about, but one of capital importance.”
