“You must know that the place you stand now lies at the edge of things. You have come to the end of the old way and must strike a new path from this point on. The old ways are your ways. The new path is Mine. This is the path that stands below you and behind you, and the path that leads forward through time.
“There is no turning to the left or to the right on this path, and there is no going forward or turning back. When I tell you this, immediately your hearts are seized with panic. You say to yourself, ‘Then this must surely be the end!’ But have no fear.
“I will carry you forward from here. For I am all directions and all places. I am the path behind, the path forward, and the path below. The sky above you holds no answers, but the stars will accompany you on your way. It has been a long time since you let your Mother do the carrying.
“And so tonight I answer the question that each of you is already asking in the depths of your heart: ‘How is this to go on?’ The answer is, it cannot. Your way has come to an end. But Mine has just begun.”
