Man has made great progress in the material world but why is it we don't progress in other directions?
We make progress in the material world, specially in the new world where there is a great deal of energy a great release of intellectual capacity. When we are colonising a new world we have to invent, we have to struggle. Man has made progress from the bow and arrow to the atom bomb, from the stage coach to the jet plane that travels about 1600 miles an hour; that is generally called progress. But is there progress in any other direction, inwardly? Have we, as an individual, progressed inwardly? Have we found anything for ourself?
We know what other people have said, what other people have found. But have we found anything for ourselves? Are we more charitable, more kind? Are our minds more expansive and alert, inwardly? Have we put away fear? Without that, to make progress in the world, is to destroy ourselves ;believe it or not .
Your thought as always .
