On the edge of one of two hundred million galaxies observable in the universe, there is a small planet populated by beings who have made repayment the meaning, the aim, the energy, and the movement itself of their lives. Those beings, inhabiting that little planet, are internally and entirely ruled by their ego, the mind’s scaffolding of an illusory self which substitutes the true pneumo-psychic energy of the man God created. For the ego of those beings, living for and in repayment is absolutely necessary; for those beings repayment is necessary to feed competition, it is essential to keep control, it is indispensable to manage power, it is inevitable to create conflict. Repayment is the ego's gravitational pull, attracting everything to itself. The ego does not think, it does not choose, it does not act according to the meaning, the value, the sense, the validity of a reality, but always, solely, and uniquely for the repayment it can get; the ego does everything only for a reward, a return, a counterpart. Repayment controls everything and is constantly under control because it is always artificial and calculated, even when embedded in habits. It is always intentional even when it seems unaware, it is always expected, desired, counted on, dreamed of, evaluated, deliberated even if it nothing has been said. Repayment is always, always meditated and premeditated, or to be more precise, it is the heart itself of meditation and the inner dialogue of the ego. Everything can be used for repayment: money, possessions, prestige, men, women, food, religions, ideologies, fear, violence, justice, prayer, life, death, work, fun, feelings, relationships, safety and thousands and thousands of other realities. Repayment does everything that it does to create a space for itself within people, a space within their minds, their hearts, their esteem, attention, interest. Repayment feels good only when it manages to be important for others, it feels even better if it manages to become indispensable, and it feels even better yet if it is considered unreplaceable. Repayment lives to create relationships and generates the most perverted, lethal, satanic of bonds: possession. Possession is always repayment, it can disguise itself in any behavior, in any ethical and legitimate bond of any kind, as unity, availability, favors, cohesion, agreement, complicity, solidarity, harmony, but, in reality, it is only and solely emotional blackmail, slimy market, cruel exchange, treacherous commerce, brutal traffic, sneaky complicity, ruthless interest. Repayment is that system of the mind that offers a child protection, care, a roof and food, in exchange for duties, commitments, efforts, sweat, sacrifices, privation, so that one day it will be able to shout to that child: after all I have done for you! Repayment creates the kind of bonds that are perfect and balanced as long as you are obedient, willing, accommodating, submissive, but in reality they are only emotional exchanges because as soon as you manifest dissent, in the eyes of repayment you become ungrateful; as soon as you disagree, you become an insolent protester, a prepotent egoist and, if you do not let yourself become possessed, you are not useful, you can be eliminated, destroyed. Repayment generates the kinds of bonds that allow a person to say that his children are his property for their entire life and that they could not live without him. Repayment can say this of a daughter, a wife, a lover, a partner, of work, fun, of home. Repayment hides behind sharing what is only matter of participating in a calculation, it disguises itself as complicity but it is only agreement for the sake of exchange, it associates itself with unity but it is only a matter of reciprocal profit. Repayment answers any kind of interests and favors possession while it creates only subjection, subordination, sense of inferiority, dependence. When it does not get any repayment, the ego is at first stupefied, disoriented, stunned, then it feels betrayed, treated unfairly, depressed, inert, without energy. Finally it gets angry, mad. The repayment system is the strongest, most lethal psychic plague of humanity, it is a contagious spiritual epidemic. If repayment were to be eliminated from human being's lives, what would be left of what man thinks and does every day on this little planet?
For the Unique Master the example of the supper and dinner is useful to explain to this planet’s humanity what repayment is, and He is clearly not speaking of repayment only in reference to meals. The Master clearly reveals how repayment can be deviating and dangerous, how it can enclose man’s heart in interest’s prison, how it can chain man’s mind in isolation of obsession, of possession. Living in a system of human repayment does not allow the divine and intelligent energy of love to reach the heart and the psyche of man, so man remains in an ignorant and hypo-energetic state. Repayment is an energy moving always and solely according to conditions and calculations; love is an energy that moves always and solely without conditions and ahead of time. The love which moved the Unique Master to embody and visit this planet is always unconditional and ahead of time, and this is the reason why it can save, heal and renew everything. Love is founded on the power of gratuity and the grace of thankfulness - gratuity and thankfulness ahead of time and without conditions. It is gratuity that unfold love’s energy, repayment only unfolds interest. The Unique Master indicates that the inhabitants of this planet can finally abandon the repayment system, can begin to invite to lunch and dinner, that is to invite to the table of wellbeing, freedom, prosperity, all those who, as result of the prolonged repayment system, which has existed for thousands of years, became poor, miserable, ill, ignorant, weak, enslaved, sad, meek, oppressed. What the men and women of this planet call love is not gratuitous love, love without condition, given ahead of time and gratefully; it is not love, it is something else, and it is not helpful for their current lives, nor for the endless one.
