Little Advanced Secret
by Vernon Howard
Nobody knows how bad it is. You have to see how bad it is before you can see how good it is. Everyone is insane. Until you know that, you can’t find sanity. You have never had anything but a mad mind, a mad spirit, tricky motives and lies.
Exercise: Know the next time you think something bad. Know the next person you hurt. If you don’t do that, you won’t be shocked and stunned at how horrible you really are, and then you won’t be able to rise above that to something good.
If you refuse to go through the shock, the stunning shock of knowing that everybody is insane, you won’t be able to go higher than that to sanity. That is a rule!
Don’t take the world’s future as your future. Can’t you see where they are going? Never any more will you accept the troubles of any other human being as your troubles. “No, sir, madam, etc. I am not going to have anything at all to do with you. You have tricked me for the last time.”
