Theos-Talk Archives (October 2006 Message tt00351)

Daniel, 

I am glad to know you that do not get irritated to see that we may think of our higher selves,  instead of visualizing "selfish magicians within".

Why not concentrate on the search for wisdom and discipleship, then?

Think about that.   

Right thought is important, according to the noble eightfold path, isn't it?  


Carlos.
