<…> Концепция человека как смеси животного и сверхъестественного на протяжении веков удерживала людей под смертельным заклинанием внушения, что животный эгоизм животная жадность являются их существенным характером , и заклинание действовало, чтобы подавить свою РЕАЛЬНУЮ ЧЕЛОВЕЧЕСКУЮ ПРИРОДУ и предотвратить ее естественное и свободное выражение.
Humans can be literally poisoned by false ideas and false teachings. Many people have a just horror at the thought of putting poison into tea or coffee, but seem unable to realize that, when they teach false ideas and false doctrines, they are poisoning the time-binding capacity of their fellow men and women. One has to stop and think! There is nothing mystical about the fact that ideas and words are energies which powerfully affect the physico-chemical base of our time-binding activities. Humans are thus made untrue to "human nature." … The conception of man as a mixture of animal and supernatural has for ages kept human beings under the deadly spell of the suggestion that, animal selfishness and animal greediness are their essential character, and the spell has operated to suppress their REAL HUMAN NATURE and to prevent it from expressing itself naturally and freely.
