The mind of our generation, having little comprehension or taste for such a message, is usually content to try to discover "the Jesus of history", conceived as a human example and teacher of a distant past. Meanwhile, there exists always alongside all forms of religious belief the great tradition of mystical experience. The mystic knows that, whatever be the truth about an historic act or person, there is a Spirit dwelling in man. In our time, even natural science abates its arrogant denials and admits the possibility of such immanence... The weak point of mysticism, as seen at least by a matter-of-fact person, is that it is apt to be so nebulous ethically. What the Immanent is, those who claim most traffic with It can often least tell us. Is It a power making for righteousness, or is It a higher synthesis of good and evil? Or is It not a moral -- that is to say, not a personal Being at all?... The raising of these questions is not intended to throw any doubt upon the validity of mystical experience as such; but we have a right to ask what content is given in the experience. Paul was a mystic, but all his mystical experience had a personal object. It was Jesus Christ, a real, living person --historic, yet not of the past alone; divine, yet not alien from humanity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Concentration is the secret of strength. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57972]]></link><description><![CDATA[Concentration is the secret of strength.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57972</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We'll try to slow them down.

If obedience to the will of GOD be necessary to happiness, and knowledge of his will be necessary to obedience, I know not how he that withholds this knowledge, or delays it, can be said to love his neighbour as himself. He, that voluntarily continues ignorance, is guilty of all the crimes which ignorance produces; as to him that should extinguish the tapers of a light-house, might justly be imputed the calamities of shipwrecks. (Continued tomorrow)   ... a letter from Samuel Johnson to William Drummond of Edinburgh, 1766  July 13, 2002   Christianity is the highest perfection of humanity; and as no man is good but as he wishes the good of others, so no man can be good in the highest degree, who wishes not to others the largest measures of the greatest good. To omit for a year, or for a day, the most efficacious method of advancing Christianity [i.e., the Bible], in compliance with any purposes that terminate this side of the grave, is a crime [the like] of which I know not that the world has yet had an example.   ... a letter from Samuel Johnson to William Drummond of Edinburgh, 1766  July 14, 2002 Feast of John Keble, Priest, Poet, Tractarian, 1866   The "good" man, the man whose god is righteousness, has as his life's ambition the keeping of rules and commandments and the keeping of himself uncontaminated by the world. This sounds admirable; but, as the truth of Christ showed, the whole of such living, the whole drive and ambition, the whole edifice, is self-centered. That entire process of effort must be abandoned if a man is to give himself in love to God and his fellows. He must lose his life if he is ever going to find it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be steadfast as a tower that doth not bend its stately summit to the tempest's shock. [It., Sta come torre ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10280]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be steadfast as a tower that doth not bend its stately summit to the tempest's shock. [It., Sta come torre ferme, che non crolla  Giammai la cima per soffiar de' venti.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10280</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing has any power over me other than that which I give it through conscious thoughts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44658]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing has any power over me other than that which I give it through conscious thoughts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44658</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fair play with others is primarily the practice of not blaming them for anything that is wrong with us.

This obsession with roots will be felt especially keenly by foundlings, who often have no way of exploring their family histories.] I notice that genealogical sites now have warnings on them saying people should be ready for little surprises, ... They're not all going to find themselves descended from King Henry VIII or Richard Cur de Lion or Wellington. This is rather strange because it was pretty taken for granted a few generations ago that families had all kinds of little moments where things had gone not according to the book. It was just one of those things. You tried to accommodate it. There was no social welfare. You just had to sort it out within villages, the families, the parish. Children went to the workhouse, but people knew about it.
