But what use is of the information, whether it to be true or not, when
there is no way one can integrate it in his everyday life? There are
QUITE FEW practical rules, which the lower self should obey, in order
to find unity with the higher. It would be VERY helpful to all if more
people would "confess" what teachings THEY find very practical in
their everyday lives.

Why study every gigantic "Ultimate Doctrine", when a fistful of words
suffice? "Harmlessness, Forgiveness, Helpfulness, Openness..." I don't
need The Map Of The Universe in order to understand those. I must only
follow these words, until I AM those words. AFTER that, I KNOW The Map
Of The Universe.
