“The search for truth is, as it always has been, the noblest expression of the human spirit. Man's insatiable desire for knowledge about himself, about his environment and the forces by which he is surrounded, gives life its meaning and purpose, and clothes it with final dignity.... And yet we know, deep in our hearts, that knowledge is not enough.... Unless we can anchor our knowledge to moral purposes, the ultimate result will be dust and ashes- dust and ashes that will bury the hopes and monuments of men beyond recovery.” KnowsMenLifeGivingHumansHeartHas BeensEnoughSpiritDesirePurposeForceResultsMoralEnvironmentExpressionTruth IsClothesDignityUltimateFinalsRecoveryDustAshesHuman SpiritMonumentAnchorsInsatiableSearch For TruthDesire For Knowledge Author:Raymond B.

“Do not consider any act of service as demeaning. Sweeping the streets, for example, is not below your dignity. Do you not sweep the floor of your homes? Do you not scrub and wash off dirt? When you undertake such tasks, the villagers will also gladly share in them. Why feel ashamed to be good? The ridicule that may be cast on you has been the reward of many saints. It will soon fade away. Muhammad was driven out of Mecca by those who could not appreciate his teachings. Jesus was crucified. But their names resound in the heart of millions.” FeelsHeartMayHas BeensHomeJesusNamesMillionsShareStreetsTeachingExampleAppreciateDignityTasksRewardsSaintCastsBe GoodDrivenAshamedFadesDirtRidiculeMuhammadSweepingFade AwayMeccaDemeaningActs Of Service Author:Sathya Sai Baba
“...[sacred] doctrine is especially based upon arguments from authority, inasmuch as its principles are obtained by revelation: thus we ought to believe on the authority of those to whom the revelation has been made.
