Fourth of July! - The early America̓s Glory...
“...we declare that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
Yea... humanly, man is happy when he has a healthy, unthreatened life, a happy home and a secure occupation. Divinely - Life is only then worthy when it is filled with the divine pursuits. Human happiness comes and goes; Divine happiness neither comes nor goes, for it is... High Life, True Liberty and Ecstatic Happiness are the dis-coveries, never - the achievements.
God bless America!

OM
Don̓t tell me... “I have no capacity for higher life...” “I don̓t benefit.” “...Higher topics are above my head” - etc., etc... It all might be above your head, but nothing of Truth is above your heart - remember this point clearly. You start being difficult, burdensome to yourself and others when you close your heart, - not before that.
Imagine the superbly beautiful, great Palace excessively rich in art, elegance, magnificence of every possible kind! Imagine yourself the only Child of the King of this glorious Palace. Imagine the love of the King who is ever-ready to educate you in every possible way, to make you worthy of your environment, so that in turn you can share your experiences of beauty and knowledge with all the subjects of His Kingdom... And... (continue to imagine!) supposing when the Child reaches his early adolescent age, he would start spitting at the great sacred objects which surround him and would tell his Father: “I have no capacity to understand all this stuff, I don̓t benefit from life of dedication, I prefer to go away and drink beer and go to the cinema or just have my little chicken coop with my own type folks.” The King... would probably bless the poor idiot and would give him a few kitchen utensils to start with...
Don̓t ever say, “I am bored; I don̓t know; I am fed .up; I have no capacity; I am dull...” Instead say, “Oh, the Glory! How thankful I am that the Infinite Way towards all the Perfection is opened to me. You will grow to understand...
