Paul Brunton Philosophic Foundation homepage > Notebooks of Paul Brunton



If he puts everything in its place--the lower and lesser things where they belong, the higher and greater ones above them--what has he to fear from the world? He can still remain active in it; flight will be unnecessary. If he does not forget the final purpose of all this worldly activity, that through the body's life and the mind's existence he may seek and find his true self, the Overself, the inner failure and superficiality of so many lives will be avoided.
