Those who want to reform the world must first reform themselves. If they want to lead others to a better world they must purify their inner worlds of hatred rancor and jealousy and adorn their outer worlds with virtue. The words of those who cannot control and disci-pline themselves and who have not refined their feelings may seem attractive and insightful at first. How-ever even if they somehow manage to inspire others which they sometimes do the sentiments they arouse will soon wither.
Ideal Spirits
Those who strive to enlighten others seek happiness for them and extend a helping hand have such a developed and enlightened spirit that they are like guardian angels. They struggle with disasters befalling society stand up to "storms." hurry to put out "fire." and are always on the alert for possible shocks.
