Some of the topics covered are:
Many of you don’t know how to apply the latihan in your daily life. Don’t feel the latihan is an obstacle. Accustom youself to quietening yourself when you are in difficulty.
Don’t use drugs, these impair your capacity to think and damage your future. We hope Subud youth can help their non-Subud peers and be of service to the next generation and their countries. The latihan requires that we are complete. Why some people should not be opened.
Subud people of all ages should latihan together, not as separate age groups. It will create distance if they do this.
Get used to asking God to keep you safe before you leave your home. Begin your day by asking God to guide you, so what you do can have inner content – use this inner guidance in your work. You should always be prepared to receive something. Don’t be careless. If you are easily disturbed or easily tempted, these are tests for you.
There is no end to doing the latihan, no point when you can stop – don’t neglect it – don’t mix it with other methods, thinking it will improve your latihan. The latihan will grow by itself. As your inner self comes to life, your receiving will improve. What testing is.
Committee work – tough but noble work. The relationship between committee and helpers.
The talk ends with questions and answers. The first three and the last are on subjects Ibu has just talked about. Two others are – whether we should live together without marriage, and looking at the older members in Subud – is the process of the latihan really so slow?
