Whenever the disciple is ready, the master appears!

Whenever the disciple is ready, the master appears!

“In the ancient Egyptian books it is said that whenever the disciple is ready, the master appears.

Whenever the disciple is ready, the master appears. There is no need for the disciple to look for the master, the master always seeks the disciple. Even if you go to the master, the master is always the one who is looking for you, who finds you.

The same goes for the divine: whenever you’re ready, it happens – Godis looking for you.
He has always sought you: he has followed you, he has waited for you.
Whenever you are ready, the seed will sprout, the bud will become a flower.
But preparation is waiting – waiting is the only prayer you can make.
But if you don’t believe it, you can’t wait.

Only faith can wait.

Reason always insists on things that happen immediately.
The heart can wait; for it there is no urgency.

<>Try to understand this: time exists only for reason.
There is no time for the heart, the heart lives in eternity.
Only for reason does time exist.
So the mind always insists on haste, on dawn, on urgency, and the mind is always tense.
Time passes, flows, life becomes less and less by the moment.
Things must happen on the spot – this is the insistence of reason.
But the heart knows no time, there are no hours for the heart.
The heart exists eternally, that’s why the heart can wait – the heart can wait indefinitely.

If you have love, if you have faith, if you trust, then there is no rush.

And then there is no need to wait with indifference.
Why don’t you dance while you wait?
Why was you wasting this time in apathy? Why don’t you dance?
When your girlfriend comes, it’s going to be better if she finds you dancing.”
