Emerson and Carlyle.
Two of the greatest philosophers.
Emerson loved the good, and his life was a symphony of peace and harmony. His legacy of quiet wisdom inspired others.
Carlyle hated the bad with a passion and his life was a record of perpetual discord and constant ongoing inharmony.
Here we have two grand men, each intent upon achieving the same ideal but one makes use of constructive thought and is therefore in harmony with Natural Law, the other makes use of destructive thought and therefore brings upon himself discord of every kind and character.
It is evident therefore that we are to hate nothing, not even "the bad".
Because hatred is destructive, and we shall soon find that by entertaining destructive thoughts we are sowing to- "the wind" and in return shall reap-
the whirlwind.
"Learn to keep the door shut, keep out of your mind, out of your office, and out of your World, every element that seeks admittance with no definite helpful end in view".
George Mathews Adams.
The imagination gathers up the material by which the mind weaves the fabric in which your future is to be clothed.
Imagination is the light by which we can penetrate new worlds of thought and experience.
Imagination is the constructive form of thought which must precede every constructive form of action.
