Item 625

 

 

Good is Attained Only

by

Going Forward and Doing It;

   Not by Striking Back at “Evil.”

 

 

 

     Men Rise Only

by

Lifting Themselves and Each Other;

   Not by Thrusting One Another Down.

 

 

         Knowledge is Gained Only

        by

       Search and Inquiry;

    Not by Attacking “Falsehood” and “Ignorance.”

 

 

 Teaching Consists in the Inculcation

        of

         Newer and Truer Conceptions;

    Not in any Eradication of the Old or the “False.”

That will Follow.

 

 

Good is attained only by going forward and doing it, not by striking back at “evil.”

 

Men rise only by lifting themselves and each other, not by thrusting one another down.

 

Knowledge is gained only by search and inquiry, not by attacking “falsehood” and “Ignorance.”

 

Teaching consists in the inculcation of newer and truer conceptions, not in any eradication of the old or the “false.” That will follow.
