A human being is always a spirit, a soul, a particle of the Universal Intelligence. When a spirit is incarnated, he (she) is subject to the uncertainties of life on earth, some of which are completely beyond his control.
Hence the need to maintain a generous and sympathetic attitude towards anyone who is in distress anywhere on this planet because humanity is like a family which lives temporarily on this planet in order to achieve spiritual growth.
Humanising should be a common slogan. Co-operation and brotherhood are the elements capable of eliminating hostility among human beings.
The spirit is a worker. With its effort, intelligence and skill, it takes part in the general evolution. It works directly for the whole and indirectly for itself. This is true, both with regard to the incarnated and the non-incarnated. When the spirit works in an Astral Body, the whole is the Universe; when working in an incarnated body, the whole is especially humanity.
No matter how severe earthly disturbances may be, the incarnated spirit should entertain only noble thoughts and act in a humane manner. This planet being a spiritual school, a first grader should not be blamed for knowing less than a fifth grader.
Sidenote: It means that spirits in the first stages of their evolution should not be expected to act in the same moral level of spirits at higher degrees of evolution.
