One thing that mureeds will realize is that initiation is given not that they will tell others about it. Keep it in your mind, but do not speak about it. By keeping it secret, you show a sacred feeling towards it.

My mureeds will do their exercises without break if they can help, and a few minutes every day they must devote to reading the papers. I wish that my mureeds will show the character of the Sufi Order by their own example, not speaking with others on any subjects which are uncommon, clairvoyance, spirits, etc. Those who speak about these things do not realize their real value. Life is sacred, and the idea of life cannot be discussed with every body.

Today the tendency is to make religion a science; it is our work to make science a religion. People want to drag Heaven to earth; we want to raise earth to Heaven. True religion is an ideal, and the more sacredly we regard the ideal, the more sacred is our religion.

In my absence my mureeds must assemble and keep exchange of love and harmony. By that they will show their real sympathy and devotion to their Murshid. No doubt my mureeds will, as they evolve in the spiritual path, understand more and more what the Message is, and what responsibility it is. And by realizing this, they must not only sympathize, but should show it in a practical realm and see in what way they can share the burden of the responsibility. I do not appeal to my mureeds who are busy and have not yet understood the extent of Murshid's responsibility and the importance of his work. But I make appeal to those mureeds whose hearts are sincerely given to Murshid.

As to myself, I am dedicated to the Cause, and the mountain I have lifted upon my shoulders I shall carry till my last breath, even if nobody comes to my help. The mighty Power Whose Message I brought to you and to humanity helps and will continue to help. I wish that mureeds who have every desire to help may not be deprived of the privilege of helping also to lift this mountain. It is not to be explained in one word in which way help may be given. But where there is a will, there is a way. And as soon as they realize the greatness of the work, the doors will open before them, and then they themselves will understand and see their way.
