the will, I say that there is nothing in the world that can prevent
one from doing it, from doing it or being obliged to do it. It de-
pends on what it is.

One wants. Yes, one wants, like this (gestures). One wants:
“Yes, yes, it would be better if it were like that. Yes, it would be

become a being when one begins to have a will. And one can’t
have a will unless one is unified.

And when you have a will, you will be able to say, say to

in order to want what the Divine wants, you must have a will, oth-
erwise you can will nothing at all. You would like to. You would like
it very much. You would very much like to want what the Divine
wants to do. You don’t possess a will to give to Him and to put at
His service. Something like that, gelatinous, like jelly-fish... there...
