→Why is it Important?
There is a moment when one becomes sufficiently conscious to realise that things in themselves are truly neither good nor bad: they are this only in relation to us; their effect on us depends absolutely upon the attitude we have towards them. The same thing, identically the same, if we take it as a gift of God, as a divine grace, as the result of the full Harmony, helps us to become more conscious, stronger, more true, while if we take it—exactly the very same circumstance—as a blow from fate, as a bad force wanting to affect us, this constricts us, weighs us down and takes away from us all consciousness and strength and harmony. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/06/5-may-1954#p22</ref>
An inner attitude, of something within which is beautiful, noble, harmonious, unselfish. There Love has a chance to come and stay. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/04/12-may-1951#p3</ref>
To keep oneself always open to the Divine in every part of the being so that the process of transformation may find no hindrance. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/31/ego-and-its-forms#p27</ref>
