Quiroga - 403

 PRESERVE YOUR DEVOTION

Devotion is more important than religion, because religion, as an institution, no matter how good it may be, becomes dogmatic over time and loses the spirit that promotes devotion in our humanity, that sublime ardor that awakens in us the good will to embark on the adventure of expanding our consciousness through experiences and getting closer to the Divine.

What is fundamental is that you preserve your devotion, despite all the setbacks that desecrate your heart, because it, devotion, is a cosmic current of colossal power, capable of connecting you with whatever you place it in, be it a humanitarian cause, an ideology, a person you are passionate about, your work, your children; it does not matter the nature of the cause you embrace, what matters is that you preserve a connection through which your devotion can be energized.

Religions, if they were not dogmatic, would be excellent stimulators of devotion, because they connect us to the saints, who are human beings like us, but who have made their way through ignorance.

Now that the ignorance and brutality of the world seem to advance and take over the earthly domain, it is more important than ever that you preserve your devotion, because if your heart burns for something greater than the banality of everyday life, there is still hope for everyone.

Perfection is desirable, avoid disregarding it just because it seems impossible to achieve it. Keep the vision of perfection very clear and lucid in your mind while, here and now, you do what is possible. That is it.
