My life is more precious than spending it in getting the admiration
of the world. I have no time for such foolery.

Karma Yoga. New York, 1896. Complete Works, 1: 115.

There are only two ways out of this complex world-machine: one is to
give up all concern with the machine, to let it go, and to stand
aside, and give up our desires. That is very easy to say, but is
almost impossible to do. I do not know whether in twenty millions of
people even one can do that. The other way is to plunge into the world
and learn the secret of work, and that is the way of Karma Yoga.

Edgar Cayce Reading 1567-2

An experience, then, is not only a happening, but what is the reaction
in your own mind? What does it do to you to make your life, your
habits, your relationships to others of a more helpful nature, with a
more hopeful attitude?
These are the criterions for every individual's experience--sincerity
of purpose, of desire; putting the whole law into effect in the
activities--which is to love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, thy
mind, thy body, and thy neighbor as thyself.
This is the whole law. All the other things given or written are only
the interpreting of same.
Then what does such a proclaiming preclude? From what basis is the
reasoning drawn? What is the purpose of an individual experience of an
entity or soul into the earth at any given period?
These answered then give a background for the interpreting of why.
