'A spark of God is the animal on earth, a piece of stone, a fragment of
iron, but we are the conscious, inspiring beings who have received this
gift from God.
Therefore, André, we people represent our Holy Father; God gave us
His own self; He is in and around us and remains so eternally. Like we
concentrate to pass on into something, to achieve something; like we
have to think with our entire inner being in order to attain and accomplish
the object of our attention, God created us and all existing life
which serves us and which we need to consciously enter that Divine
condition. That Divine power is present within us; we are that power
and it is up to us to go for it; to become the conscious Divine being. Is
it clear now what the Divine Spark is?'
'Yes, Alcar, quite. It is me.'
'Quite so, my boy. You are that spark of God, you are a particle of
God, you emanate from that which is God, your life represents God's
own life. Everything belonging to creation is God, or a particle thereof.
His holy life is within us, but it is up to us to acquire it.'
'That inspiration, if I put it correctly, Alcar, has been there from the
first moment, hasn't it?'
'When you observed the first flashes of light in the temple of the
soul, it happened for a fixed purpose. We were already represented in
those flashes. By that action, or concentration, if I may put it that way,
we were to receive ourselves. We received our personality by that inspiration
or concentration as we emerged from it. It is clear that the human
will, the personality, is implied therein; and that will is the relation
to God, is His sacred life, which we have received. If this had not happened,
we would belong to what is the universe. We would be invisible
and belong to the invisible energy, like everything belonging to that
form of life.'
