The only distinction in labor is between consciousness and senselessness.

III, vi, 14.  The only distinction in labor is between consciousness and senselessness.  It is necessary to discern also the difference in age of the spirit.  One can identify a recent spirit as compared with an old spirit by noting the difference in striving.  A recent spirit does not have the deep perceptions that are inculcated by the experience of many lives, but often it has less egotism and is more adaptable to evolution.  -Leaves of Morya's Garden 1925

168.   It is particularly necessary to watch the sparks of our consciousness.  Even when a body is almost invisible the lightning of thought nevertheless flashes, and on the point of this lightning is life and death.  -M:  Community 1926

They can be found in many different places, even in opposing camps, and can be found on both sides in a battle.  One cannot explain such contradiction to an earthly consciousness, but Our abode does not act in accordance with earthly laws.  A broadened consciousness can understand that there are ties beyond earthly laws.   -M:  Supermundane 1, 1938
