Control of the tongue! Vital for the man who would try to tread the Path, for no harsh or unkind word, no hasty impatient phrase, may escape from the tongue which is consecrated to service, and which must not injure even an enemy; for that which wounds has no place in the Kingdom of Love.
Annie BesantEvery form, not being the whole, must, of necessity, be imperfect; less than the whole, it cannot be identical with the whole, and being less than the whole and, therefore, imperfect by itself, it shows imperfection as evil, and only the totality of a universe can mirror the image of God.
Annie BesantThe position of the Atheist is a clear and reasonable one. I know nothing about โGodโ and therefore I do not believe in Him or in it; what you tell me about your God is selfโcontradictory, and therefore incredible. I do not deny โGod,โ which is an unknown tongue to me; I do deny your God, who is an impossibility. I am without God.
Annie BesantOnce a person has taken their life, in the inner realms, the suicide will repeat automatically the feelings of despair and fear which preceded his self murder, and go through the act and the death struggle time after time with ghastly persistence... They remain conscious - often entangled in the final scene of the earth life for a very long time, unaware that they have lost the physical body.
