relative purity is achieved. If total perfection at the lower stage is to be had then the progress or journey to the infinite gets delayed. The Master therefore enables the aspirant to move on to the next stage even if he had got only 40% or 50% knowledge at the lower knot. Comparing the secular with spiritual is not proper. However, to understand we may compare this with the educational system. Though the student has got 50% in all subjects, he is promoted to the next class and we say he has passed the lower class. But we know that his knowledge in the lower class is only 50% and 50% he does not know. But we believe he will gain mastery over that 50% at a later stage when he is learner of greater lessons in a higher class. Sri Ramchandraji, the Great Master, therefore, applied this approach in spiritual training also and enabled many an aspirant to move on to higher stages though their mastery in each knot is less than perfect or total. However, it is necessary that each aspirant should ensure greater understanding at each knot for being a better vehicle for carrying the Master’s Messages to all.
