“History does seem to repeat itself hence it's mindboggling to still hear the 'avoid all negative people' speeches from, of all people, supposedly important spiritual teachers. Ironically, their congregations would probably be the ones hiding their faces from the accuracies of truth speakers like Christ. Now, Christ was the complete opposite of negative, however the danger is that truth is often misunderstood as negativity by those who are constantly taught to only seek flattery.” PeopleDoeStillsImportantSeemsFacesSpiritualChristTeacherDangerTaughtTruth IsSpeechNegativeOppositesRepeatsHidingSpeakersNegativityFlatteryMisunderstoodAccuracyNegative PeopleCongregationSpiritual TeachersComplete Opposites Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy
“Danger is a good teacher, and makes apt scholars. So are disgrace, defeat, exposure to immediate scorn and laughter. There is no opportunity in such cases for self-delusion, no idling time away, no being off your guard (or you must take the consequences) - neither is there any room for humour or caprice or prejudice.” SelfOpportunityRoomsCasesTeacherDangerHumourLaughterConsequencePrejudiceDefeatDelusionScholarExposureScornDisgraceGood TeacherCapriceSelf DelusionTime Away Book:On the Pleasure of Hating Source: On the Pleasure of Hating
