$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('zensui', 'O')ne must always seek the truth. But there's a first problem with the secret doctrine: is there really proof that there have being 5 of 7 human races (as described in the text)? I don't think so, and what is so specially about 7?
Correct, there is no "proof".
I bet we would be hard pressed to "prove" that H.P. Blavatsky even existed. The same applies to Buddha, Jesus and even wether you and I exist as I type this
Like the Emerald tablets of Thoth, one can read what was supposedly written and given to mankind a long long time ago yet how will we ever know?
The stanzas of Dyzan exist in this form.
Now that you have read them what do you think?
You wonder what is so special about the number 7 yet I would think that is all too obvious and self explanatory.
Do you believe in Zen? All you have to do is ponder why you believe and then apply that to the rest.
Once I had read the stanzas I was struck by the beauty and what appears to be the well from which all subsequent belief sprang. Perhaps your minds eye has had the priviledge of seeing something seemingly more true then the stanzas... If so then please share with the class
I cannot help anyone who can read them and come to the conclusion that it is all a bunch of mumbo jumbo. Like the masters would say "it is as you believe it is"...
It is easier to enslave a people that wish to remain free then it is to free a people who wish to remain enslaved.
