One really feels that the world is in turmoil.
        Yes, oh, yes!

            And individuals.

            Since the morning, it has been like — strikes, quarrels, dis-
        orders.... And then the feeling that order must be re-established
        with the help of those who have created the disorder. That is the
        thing to be done. Instead of the basis of ordinary goodwill and all
        the moral and social rules — all that dashed to the ground — one
        must rise above, the divine Will and the divine Harmony must be
        there, it is that which we want; and then those who have revolted
        against the ordinary law of things and the ordinary social conven-
        tions: prove that you are in relation with a  higher   consciousness
        and a truer truth.
            It is time to do it (gesture of a leap upward).
            And from the point of view of organising power, it is a pow-
        er... extremely powerful. It is a wonder. And then, if this power is
        placed at the disposal of the  higher  order, the truer  conscious-
        ness , something can be done.
            One must... must make a leap upward.
            All the people who want to re-establish order pull backward
        into all the old ideas—that is why they never succeed. That is fin-
        ished, finished for good. We go upward. Only they who rise can act.
                                 (Long silence)
            You have nothing? Nothing to ask?
            I do not know very well in which direction I am moving.

        There is only one direction — towards the Divine. And as you know,
        it is as much inward as it is outward, as much upward as down-
        ward. It is everywhere. It is in the world as it is that one must find
        the Divine and cling to Him — to Him alone; there is no other way.
