I am Master Hilarion, coming to you through our Messenger.

As always, I would like to give you an admonition, and I hope it will be for your good.

You cannot concentrate on the things that we teach you for very long, because there are too many distractions in your life. However, the first and most important quality is an ability to concentrate on the subject that you are studying. As soon as you are able to concentrate on our teaching, you start to absorb the subjects that we are teaching you much better.

As long as you carry on reading our Dictations between this and that, such as between a TV program and your meal, you will neither get the needed effect from our teaching nor achieve any good for your soul.

Remember, when you are busy working hard, will the work be successful if you are distracted constantly by ten other tasks that you try to do simultaneously? Why do you have a feeling that spiritual work can be done between times or on the run?

Until you form the right attitude toward spiritual work in your consciousness, you won’t get any significant results.

I regret noticing that the lack of attention and concentration is the scourge of your time. You try to learn diverse things at the same time. You listen to the radio, talk on the phone, or watch TV while trying to read our Messages.

Until you collect your strength to concentrate on accepting the spiritual food and throw away all the rest, reading our Messages will not be helpful but bad for your development.

I’ll tell you why. If you are busy with some lay activity, such as listening to modern music on the radio or watching a commercial break on TV, and trying to read our Message at the same time, then the energy that we put into our Messages is used irregularly. And you slip back instead of going further in your development.

Realize that you are talking to God; you are communicating to the Masters who are far ahead of you, who climbed higher steps of the evolutionary development. Where does that massive disrespect come from?

Why don’t you have the basic decency in your communication with us?

I would like you to stop seeing the Teaching that we give you through our Messenger as something self-evident and ordinary.

Thousands of Beings of Light work at delivering every Message. We spend precious energy from God; we collect it grain by grain and pour it into our Messages.

Unless you change your attitude toward the given Divine mercy, we will close the doors of our classrooms, and you will stay in the passage waiting for the new Divine opportunity.

How quickly mankind gets used to everything! It’s very hard for us to watch you considering the reading of our Messages side by side with entertaining activities, such as watching a video film.

Some of you entice onlookers with our Messages and use them as a spiritual treat.

Look at yourself. Look at what you are doing.

You are communicating with God! Have the inner decency to put yourself in order before communicating with God.

However, this familiarity when communicating with God is very popular nowadays.

The first thing you have to do is to develop a quivering attitude toward the Divine.

You have to worry about many of your wrong aspirations. You have to think over many things and forcibly instill the quality of humility within yourselves.

Stop considering the Masters as milk cows. Yes, we look after you, we teach you, we comfort you, we heal your physical bodies and your souls, but why do you take the things you get from us as a matter of course? Why do you forget about gratitude?

I had to speak to you about this seriously because unless you change your attitude toward your communication with the Masters and overcome some associated negative features of your character, you can badly hurt your soul. Remember that when you get the Divine energy, you yourself direct it in your world with the help of your thoughts, feelings, and state. When you get energy from reading our Messages while being in the wrong state, likewise you can use it irregularly, directing it toward the increase of illusion, and create your karma.

At your stage of evolutionary development, you have to use the Divine energy with more responsibility.

I came today in order to make you think about whether you properly deal with the information and the energy in our Messages.

I hope that my Teaching today will be helpful to you.
