Training through Planetary Vibrations 231to the good karma of the average man. Sun, Venus and
Mercury create such opportunities during the year. Every
two and a half days, the Moon creates and stimulates these
vibrations from the positions of the birth planet of the
average man. He alternates the favourable and the
unfavourable thought currents.
The favourable vibrations are to advance spiritually
and the so-called unfavourable ones are for the practice
of neutralising our polarity with the objective world.
Favourable persons, thoughts, books and such
opportunities come in the way of the spiritual apprentice
and encourage him during the favourable sub-period of
two and a half days. He has to take the tide and gain the
maximum possible ground when favourable. If he enjoys
the ease of the favourable time, he will waste the good
fruits of his past karma. Unfavourable persons, thoughts,
books and other disadvantages meet him and test the
percentage of his discouragement, dislike, anger, hatred
etc., in his behaviour and expression. They are all but the
outcome of his polarity with the objective world. He
should remember that the intensity of his polarity depends
upon the amount and mode of his bad karma in the past.
He should not be discouraged. The more intense it is, the
more cheerful and patient he has to grow to neutralise
his own unfavourable vibrations.
During the early days of the spiritual career, the student
is advised to think that every bad vibration will be followed
by a good vibration. He has to sustain hope under all
circumstances. After some advancement, he should practise
to remember that every good vibration is sure to be followed
by that of an opposite nature. Therefore, he has to derive the
maximum benefit of advancement during the time of good
vibration. He should not be afraid of any change in life.
