One is the danger of sinking back to the condition of a sect; the other, the danger of becoming a movement of bourgeois social reform.
It is inner abandonment that leads men to the highest truth.
When you learn to take responsibility for yourselves, then you will start taking responsibility for the planet. The planet is being destroyed by your abandonment of responsibility. You assume that you own the planet. And ownership confers upon you the right to do as you like. You do not own this beautiful planet. You are simply a guest here.
