CHELA’S DUTY TO FAMILY

DIVINE ROMANCE

An excerpt from ‘LIFE & TEACHINGS OF MARY & JESUS’ By ADK Luk

“Jesus was more concerned with doing God’s Will to fulfill the Divine Plan than with the desires of relatives and friends. He considered His mother and relatives as sisters and brothers in the Light, that is, on the same status as the others following His Teaching, on an impersonal level instead of from blood ties or an emotional standpoint. He did teach to pay no attention to requests of relatives, friends or anyone if these interfered or were detrimental to one’s spiritual welfare.

This is essential for one on the Path. He tried to show or pointed out that for one to be a real disciple of Christ – which is a principle – he had to renounce all he possessed, that is disconnect himself from worldly things and sever all family and human ties, not necessarily friendship.”
