Poison for the Heart

 

 

Worldly Wisdom  •  The lie of worldly wisdom uncovered   5 / 35

- The devil finds work for idle hands.

It is said that to live a happy and successful life you must be rid of all self-consciousness. Work is the means to this end.

It is so easy to think selfish thoughts. So, if you want to improve your personality, then work yourself so hard that thought doesn't have a chance to arise! It doesn't matter what you work at, it's the working that matters. Use animals as a model: they don't think either, and they're not selfish - are they?

 

- True love is when you love yourself first, then extend it out to all others.

But I tell you that Love involves killing the self: when there is no self, there is no lack of Love.
