Discipleship in the New Age I - Personal Instructions to Disciples - W.D.S.
January 1940 MY BROTHER: A kind heart is of potent use in our service, provided that it is kept in place by a wise head and does not assume the form of a glamor. That then makes it a definite and hindering weakness. We need today disciples who are capable of seeing people truly; able to see them as they are and yet to love them and serve them just the same; we look for disciples whose hearts are awakened to group usefulness and to the place an individual mind can play in the service of humanity, and whose radiation is love but whose head is equally responsive to the individual as he is at his particular point in the evolutionary process. When the radiation is the radiation of love, the resultant words and actions can be stern without hurting. That is pre-eminently a lesson which you need to learn. Your need is also to awaken to the fact that it is one of service; those who represent us are alive and active in the work to be done but are not interested in personality modes of reaction. A loving radiation and an intelligent assessment (or do I mean appraisement, brother of mine?) of those you seek to aid will render you more effective in service to your fellowmen than anything else. I would, however, here commend you for the stability you are endeavoring to preserve. You are evidencing a purpose which the past two years have enabled you to make objective. NOTE: W. D. S. takes his work in this group most seriously and no matter what obstacles present themselves, he continues to work in the Tibetan's group.
