The World Is Our School For Spiritual

That Deep Silence Has A Melody Of Its Own, A Sweetness Unknown Amid The Harsh Discords Of The World's Sounds.

The Succession Of Thoughts Appears In Time, But The Gap Between Two Of Them Is Outside Time. The Gap Itself Is Normally Unobserved. The Chance Of Enlightenment Is Missed.

When Every Situation Which Life Can Offer Is Turned To The Profit Of Spiritual Growth, No Situation Can Really Be A Bad One.

Whoever Wants The "i" To Yield Up Its Mysterious And Tremendous Secret Must Stop It From Looking Perpetually In The Mirror, Must Stop The Little Ego's Fascination With Its Own Image.

This Withdrawal From The Day's Turmoil Into Creative Silence Is Not A Luxury, A Fad, Or A Futility. It Is A Necessity, Because It Tries To Provide The Conditions Wherein We Are Able To Yield Ourselves To Intuitive Leadings, Promptings, Warnings, Teachings, And Counsels And Also To The Inspiring Peace Of The Soul. It Dissolves Mental Tensions And Heals Negative Emotions.
