– Why? Which people do you want to help? Help yourself. Become pure, obedient, attentive, well-mannered first. Who do you want to help and why? I don’t help anyone, and you want to help someone. Who do you think you are? Are you God?

If a thousand signs occurred, showing me to go East, I would be there, but I won’t go there by myself, based on my own mind. I don’t have that greedy, eager mind, like people do. This is very important to understand. Very important.
And about the messenger... Well, the messenger, again, if you... You perceive her as a person. She’s just a woman who is simply walking, and the system inhabits her and starts speaking to me through her. It’s all a series of random
