To SEEK the TRUTH is to KNOW THYSELF.
People are afraid, very much afraid of those who know themselves. They have a certain power, a certain aura and a certain magnetism, a charisma that can take out alive, young people from the traditional imprisonment...
The enlightened man cannot be ensalved - that is the difficulty - and he cannot be imprisoned by any religion or by any dogmas...
Every genius who has known something of the inner is bound to be a little difficult to be absorbed; he is going to be an upsetting force. The masses don't want to be disturbed, even though they may be in misery, but they are accustomed to the misery. And anybody who is not miserable looks like a stranger.
The enlightened man is the greatest stranger in the world; he does not seem to belong to anybody or to any religion for that matter. No organization confines him, no community, no society, no nation.
