...In all things involving the acquirement of knowledge, the Ancient Wisdom says,
“ FIRST PURIFY YOUR OWN LIFE. ”
...This means literally what it says...
...Until selfishness is removed from the soul of a student
he can never hope to gain any knowledge that will serve him for any purpose
more lofty than as a mental stimulant...
...The modern psychological cults overlook this entirely, failing to emphasize
any virtue essential for the human nature outside of endless desires
for things not normally attainable...
...Once men died for Truth, but now Truth dies at the hands of men...
