I Read The Bible And Know Little Of Its History, But The Human Beings Who Wrote It Were Instruments Of Divine Power, And Jesus Forged A Far Stronger Bond Than The Ten Commandments: Love. Birds And Monkeys, Or Any Of God's Creatures, Obey Their Instincts And Merely Do What They're Programmed To Do. In The Case Of The Human Being, Things Are More Complicated Because We Know About Love And Its Traps.

Don't Think About What You've Left Behind... Everything Is Written In The Soul Of The World, And There It Will Stay Forever.

For The Warrior Of Light There Is No Such Thing As An Impossible Love. He Is Not Intimidated By Silence, Indifference Or Rejection. He Knows That, Behind The Mask Of Ice That People Wear, There Beats A Heart Of Fire. Without Love, He Is Nothing.

When He Is Forced To Perform The Same Task Several Times, The Warrior Uses This Tactic And Transforms Work Into Prayer.

Truth Resides Where There Is Faith.

Only Children Believe They're Capable Of Everything. They're Trusting And Fearless; They Believe In Their Own Power And Get Exactly What They Want.

Then The Child Begins To Love And To Hope His Love Will Be Requited; And As Life Goes On, He Develops An Ever-greater Need To Be Loved In Return, Even If That Means Having To Give Up His Power. We All End Up Where We Are Now: Grown-ups Doing Everything We Can To Be Accepted And Loved.

Item One: The Law Of The Will. We Just Talked About This: One Should Only Do That Which Truly Fills Our Hearts With Enthusiasm.
