The greatest need of our time is to clean out the enormous mass of mental and emotional rubbish that clutters our minds

I believe we are going to have to prepare ourselves for the difficult and patient task of outgrowing rigid and intransigent nationalism, and work slowly towards a world federation of peaceful nations. How will this be possible? Don't ask me. I don't know. But unless we develop a moral, spiritual, and political wisdom that is proportionate to our technological skill, our skill may end us.

It might be good to open our eyes and see.

But there is greater comfort in the substance of silence than in the answer to a question.

I seek to speak to you, in some way, as your own self. Who can tell what this may meanI myself do not know, but if you listen, things will be said that are perhaps not written in this book. And this will be due not to me but to the One who lives and speaks in both.

We do not want to be beginners. But let us be convinced of the fact that we will never be anything else but beginners, all our life!

Stop thinking and start looking.
