THE
DIFFICULTY OF
INTRODUCING
MY IDEAS
Introducing
these ideas to the world is not an easy task, for the world, like the
sick, cannot understand. For if they could, then there would not be
any call for some other mode of reasoning. But the world, like a sick
man, is in trouble, and does not know how to free itself from the
fetters that bind it.
It
is easy to take one individual case and apply the theory, but to take
the world and give the causes and symptoms is not so easy a task.
The world, like the sick, have no idea that what is said and believed
in has anything to do with their sickness; when all our troubles, or
nearly so, are from our belief - directly or indirectly.
Therefore,
I have to take the world, as a patient, and show that the causes of
man's trouble arise from his beliefs, and these make him sick.
Now
the sickness is not the belief; but the belief is the cause -
directly or indirectly. So to cure, I have to destroy the belief; and
then the sickness will cease.
Then
the question will be asked, “What is a belief?”
