650) Fantastic movements of energy participate in this moment. This Moment contains the word “infinite.” Sentient beings travel through It, and each of Its points contains It. Every opposition is oneness, every way a direction, every inside, outside. This is true for every word and its opposite. Don’t lose yourself. The Silence contains us. Listen to It, It is present in this moment.
651) Of the Soul, you only know the name. You will wait a long time to perceive it. But from the first, you connect a long chain of useless links in a useless journey. The first mistake? The Soul is not in the mind.
652) Duality is the expression of the freedom which exists in creation. The Soul is the threshold between the created and the non created.

657) You await the illusion of illumination, of Realization. Later, remember to take away illusion.
658) That form is useful during the wait is undoubtedly true, that it is useless in the appearance is uncertain, that you will experience its countless aspects is certain.
659) Here you are, as usual, between your Soul and the universe of the multiple creatures. When will you realize your Universal Love?
