That Cruelest Of Tyrants - Public Opinion.

Meditation Has Been Defined As The Cessation Of Active Eternal Thought.

This Law -- Whether Conscious Or Unconscious --predestines Nothing And No One. It Exists From And In Eternity, Truly, For It Is Eternity Itself; And As Such, Since No Act Can Be Co-equal With Eternity, It Cannot Be Said To Act, For It Is Action Itself...karma Creates Nothing, Nor Does It Design. It Is Man Who Plans And Creates Causes, And Karmic Law Adjusts The Effects; Which Adjustment Is Not An Act, But Universal Harmony, Tending Ever To Resume Its Original Position.

Man Is Spiritual Being -- A Soul, In Other Words -- And That This Soul Takes On Different Bodies From Life To Life On Earth To Order At Last To Arrive At Such Perfect Knowledge, Through Repeated Experience, As To Enable One To Assume A Body Fit To Be The Dwelling-place Of A Mahatma Or Perfected Soul. Then, They Say, That Particular Soul Becomes A Spiritual Helper To Mankind.

A Solitary Ascetic Is A Symbol Of The Most Cowardly Egotism; A Hermit Who Flees From His Brothers Instead Of Helping Them To Carry The Burden Of Life, To Work For Others, And To Put Their Shoulders To The Wheel Of Social Life, Is A Coward Who Hides Himself When The Battle Is On, And Goes To Sleep Drunk On An Opiate.

The Appearance And Disappearance Of The Universe Are Pictured As An Outbreathing And Inbreathing Of The" Great Breath," Which Is Eternal, And Which, Being Motion, Is One Of The Three Aspects Of The Absolute - Abstract Space And Duration Being The Other Two.
