The Library
The books were written out of passionate feeling for truths and matters higher than those which ordinarily occupy people's minds.

8.12.2.131,Listen Something seemed to ask me, “Do you want to have your ego catered to and pampered like a child, primarily seeking its outer comforts, or will you give up the ego altogether and find peace? The choice you make at this crossroads will also determine the outer fortunes coming to you.”
8.12.2.141Listen All my previous life and travel, all my researches and experiences have been leading up to this fuller and culminating revelation that I have been asked to communicate to the world of seekers.
8.12.2.203Listen … There are new forces penetrating this planet's atmosphere today and they demand a new inspiration, new thinking, and a new way of living…
