Words to some friends, spoken on 1914-10-29

Before entering the Sacred Shrine every one should perform ablution and be clean and pure in body, soul, mind and even his outward apparel. His heart must be purified from all worldly feelings and his consciousness be cleansed from all unholy suggestions.
