Why Is Advancement So Difficult? Question: In
THE ULTIMATE FRONTIER, you state that evil is of human origin. Would you
please comment on why we are having such a hard time uplifting ourselves? Answer: The
greatest suppressor of Mankind is his own mental lethargy. It is much easier
to drift than to think about why things happen as they do. We can’t blame all the evil in the world on Black Mentalists
and other lower human entities, because everyone generates occasional
negative thoughts. Individually, one can strive to eliminate his own negative
thinking, but most people fail to do so. Blaming others for one’s problems is
a common psychological fault of many people. Sometimes lack of courage
inhibits a person’s progress. Those who step out of line in order to move
forward often become the targets of people who are jealous or fearful of
others moving ahead. People tend to accept what their parents told them
rather than examine what they have been taught,
because to question these teachings could make them liable to criticism or
abuse from others. These are a few examples of ways that our own lassitude
keeps us from progressing. (05-1971) |
