Question: How can I tell whether or not I have succeeded in attributing everything to the Creator? And if I have not succeeded, what should I do next?

Answer: Success means that right now, I feel that I am taking a step forward and clarifying my state more deeply. This does not mean that I gain clear vision against the disturbances. I gain clarity in the sense of the saying: “You shall see your world in your lifetime,“ but this is not yet the true attainment of the goal.

However, when causes and consequences become revealed to me as the governance of the Creator, I begin to understand that through this action, I have united my attitude, His work upon me, and the state to which I have arrived. That is, His governance becomes clarified to me in some form, but it becomes clarified only so that I will immediately fall into an even greater disturbance and clarify it in an even greater darkness.

Thus, each time I am given additional strength and knowledge, or one could say, the strength of knowledge, so that I will be ready for the next disturbance.
