“Brave, bold men, these are what we want. What we want is vigor in the blood, strength in the nerves, iron muscles and nerves of steel, not softening namby-pamby ideas. Avoid all these. Avoid all mystery. There is no mystery in religion. Is there any mystery in the Vedanta, or in the Vedas, or in the Samhitâs, or in the Puranas? What secret societies did the sages of yore establish to preach their religion? What sleight-of-hand tricks are there recorded as used by them to bring their grand truths to humanity?” MenWantIdeasHandsMotivationalUsedHumanitySecretMysteryBloodBraveTricksMusclesIronOld ManNervesSteelSageVigorVedantaSecret SocietyVedasSleight Of Hand Book:Lectures Vol. 3 Source: Lectures Vol. 3
“The secret to living in the rush of the world with a minimum of pain is to get as many people as possible to string along with your delusions; the trick to living alone up here, away from all agitating entanglements, allurements, and expectations, apart especially from one's own intensity, is to organize the silence, to think of its mountaintop plenitude as capital, silence as wealth exponentially increasing. The encircling silence as your chosen source of advantage and your only intimate.” PeopleThinkingWorldPainWealthSecretSilenceSourceExpectationsAdvantageTricksChosenIntimateDelusionStringsIntensityMinimumOrganizeEntanglementLiving AlonePlenitude Book:The Human Stain: A Novel Source: The Human Stain: A Novel
