How TO Help Our Friends,

Se often attempt to regulate the
lives Of our friends through imposing
our own wills upon them. This we do
under the impression that our concep-
tion of truth is superior to theirs, and
that we see more clearly than they do.
This is really but form Of seliishness,
ard binds all who indulge in it, both
the strong and the week. OF course
there is point where kind and friend
ly desire to help another may be pro-
dactive of good But when the desire
10 help another involves the subjugation
of his spirit and understanding, then
thet desire becomes a selfish one. For
you cannot force knowledge Of truth
rpon anyone. Only love and patience
and living the truth yourself can bring
il TO the consciousness Of your friends.
