Live the Principle Day by Day


We cannot always sense what is right; man is too governed by the emotions to discriminate between right and wrong; he must know what constitutes balanced thinking-must know that it represents a state of perfect balance between the mind and the emotions; for until man has learned to understand and master the emotions, he is bound to become lost and a prey to the evil forces that are ever present and ready to take advantage of the unwary and unprotected mind, through the emotional channels.

Any organization is only as great as the individuals who comprise it; therefore, each individual must understand his duty to his Inner Consciousness, to his fellow man, and to his organization, by oneness of Principle, oneness of purpose; and above all, oneness in the realization of God in all and through sincere effort to work for the expression of that God through all. If man is divided upon himself, either through lack of Principle or inability to practise it, then organized effort becomes an intensification of that disunity, and chaos results. This does not mean that we should not organize, for that is a negative thought; instead, it means that to succeed in bringing the Kabalarian Philosophy to its fullest capacity as a spiritual organization, every student must endeavour to live the Principle day by day, so that evil forces may not creep in and destroy the ideal before it has had time to materialize.

Thought for the Day
  • Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. –Albert Einstein

  • The wind does not talk with more gentleness to giant oaks than to the smallest leaf of grass. –Kahlil Gibran

  • An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. –Mahatma Gandhi

  • There is a time in every man's education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better, for worse, as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given to him to till. The power which resides in him is new in nature, and none but he knows what that is which he can do, nor does he know until he has tried. –Ralph Waldo Emerson
