You are making effort very well in enabling souls of all religions to meet the Father. The love for service is very good. Do you have any problems of the body or mind? The body may not be well, but do not let the mind be disturbed by any illness of the body. Constantly continue to dance in happiness and the body will then become fine. Make the body function with happiness in the mind and both will receive exercise. Happiness is the blessing (dua) and exercise is the medicine (dava). When you take both the blessing and the medicine, everything becomes easy.  Don't have any waste thought about your body not being able to function. Instead of that, have the powerful thought that the Father has made you belong to Him in this last birth. Don't have thoughts of hopelessness. Create thoughts of happiness. Wah! the wonder of my old body is such that it has become instrumental in enabling me to meet the Father! 

By living alone you have developed that natural practice of thinking. You think a great deal about trivial matters. Your time is wasted in thinking and your happiness disappears and then that also affects your body. Then, because of this, you have further thoughts. Therefore, in order to keep both the mind and body constantly happy and well, think less. If you must think, think about the jewels of knowledge. As opposed to having powerful thoughts, you have wasteful thoughts: “My part is not that visible. I cannot have yoga. I cannot become bodiless”. Those are waste thoughts. Instead, have powerful thoughts: “Remembrance is my original religion. The religion of the children is to remember the Father. Why would I not be able to do this? I will definitely do this. If I don't become a yogi soul, who else would? I am an easy yogi soul of every cycle”. So, instead of having waste thoughts, have powerful thoughts like these. 

Why are you afraid of Maya? Maya comes to teach you a lesson. The main foundation of all of these is a lack of the power to tolerate. From the beginning, you haven’t had the personality of tolerance and this is why you very quickly become afraid. You change the place or you change the people with whom you get disturbed but you do not change yourself. You now have to change this personality. “I have to change myself!” You don't have to change the place or others - but yourself. Keep this in your awareness a lot more. Do you understand? Become incarnations of tolerance. You refer to this as adjusting yourself.
