Doctrines

Post by Virgo2 »

I have the farman but no date or place:

"You must remember that life will have for you many disappointments. If one fifth of one's hopes is realised one is extremely lucky and fortunate, so do not be discouraged by disappointments. Failure should be forgotten and new efforts made. Despondency is a sin and hope a necessary part of IMAN (faith) both for material wealth and above all for progress in spiritual enlightment".

I had cut this and pasted on my computer.

Need Help is not a title which is acceptable in the Forum. Please call it Despondency is a sin or whatever makes sense else this topic will be lost in the search engine.

This topic will be erased in a couple of days. You make copy it under a more appropriate title.
