450. A higher position, a higher salary

Lord, will You not give me
A higher position and raise my salary?

“Your salary: Peace, Light and Delight
I can and shall easily increase.
But I am afraid I shall
Not be able to give you a higher position.
A few years ago,
When I accepted you,
I accepted you as an instrument of Mine.
Then I raised your position.
I declared you as a chosen son of Mine.
Now you want to be My representative on earth.
I am sorry!
For that you have to work very hard.
I am afraid it may take a few incarnations
For you to represent Me on earth.”
Sri Chinmoy, The Wings of Light, part 9, Aum Press, Puerto Rico, 1974
