nday 27th of July 2014 ALCHEMICAL LABORATORY BULLETIN SECOND QUARTER 1966 N0 27 We just added this Alchemical Laboratory Bulletin to the site. Our favorite quote is: Those who will always look below their present standing will find those who are not as fared developed. Comparisons made with such individuals does not help much in the furtherance of ones development. It may develop into a smug feeling of superiority. He, who is not more developed than you can be of little assistance in the furtherance of acquiring greater knowledge. If the latter is our aim we must look above. We must find those who do know more than we do. There is the storehouse from which we may draw. There will be found the ways and means for greater knowledge. But then we become insignificant. Our forme r standing of self imposed aggrandizement becomes nill. Instead of looking down we will have to look up. We will find ourselves in the center of things. There will be those below us and those above us. As soon as we have realized that there is always one below us, who is not capable to perform a task as good as we are able to do, by that same token do we acknowledge that there is one who can do it better. This should help us in establishing an equilibrium within ourselves. It will help to forestall a feeling of continuous superiority. Too many harbor such a feeling by constantly making comparisons with those below their present level of knowledge and understanding. This is self delusion. Remember: there is always one who can do things better than you and who has a greater knowledge and understanding than you possess. From there we can expect help which will enable us to do the same unto others who look to us for help. But then we will render it in a spirit of meekness and thanksgiving and not in arrogance and self-aggrandizement.
