Chp 9 – The Spiritual Scientist

✦ Truth without compassion often becomes cruelty. Truth without context often becomes distortion. Truth without relevance often becomes gossip. Inspired by Bhagavad Gita 18.22 ✦ When we no longer find the shocking shocking, we should at least find our own loss of conscience shocking. Inspired by Bhagavad Gita 18.32 ✦ The mind may not light the fire of destructive desire, but it often deludes us into pouring the gasoline of obsessive imagination onto that fire. Inspired by Bhagavad Gita 6.34
