The Voice of Conscience & The Voice of Mind.

The voice of one's conscience is often eclipsed by the voice of emotion, or

the voice of emotion comes into play first and is followed by the surfacing

of the voice of conscience after one has reacted to the voice of emotion.

The voice of conscience is of the Spirit and the voice of emotion is of the

mind, hence the importance of cultivating the ability to…

Civilization. (1)

Civilization is not necessary for the spiritual progress of the individual.

However, it does provide the opportunity to learn that the empty pleasures

and apparent benefits that civilization brings are actually worthless - mere

Time and "Now".

Using approximate times, let us say that it is noon in Maleny. It is then 3

a.m. in London, 6 a.m. in Johannesburg, 8 a.m. in Colombo, 10 a.m. in Singapore and 10 a.m. the previous day in Washington DC, and so on anywhere

The Journey up the Mountain.

mountainside, shout to those climbing past, "Stay! for we have found the
