Infinite Way Writings
| Weekly Passage - for week of 2/19/12
"If we would know anyone, we have to discard everything that we now believe, everything we have heard, and everyone's opinion about him. We have to clear out and rid ourselves of all our concepts of him. We first have to acknowledge that all we know about him is some concept that has become crystallized in our mind. To know a person, we would have to empty our mind of all opinions, concepts, theories, and beliefs, and train ourselves to shut out every opinion we have ever heard or formed because these opinions have been formed only as the result of some personal experience which pleased or displeased us." -- from Joel Goldsmith's "A Parenthesis in Eternity" Return to the Weekly Passage Page |
