Inner anarchy

More serious than political or social anarchy

March 8th 2025
Who governs within man? Do you think it is we, ourselves—in the sense of our divine Self—who rules supreme? Not at all. Chaotic and obscure forces have supplanted the divine Self, locking it away like a prisoner in some small cell, and feeding it a few crusts of bread and water. It suffers and is wretched, but it is forced to submit to these controlling forces and satisfy their whims.
We must see this for what it really is: anarchy—yes, an inner anarchy that is far more serious and threatening than social or political anarchy. This is what fills prisons, hospital wards and mental asylums. So it is up to each one of us to be wary and watchful, in order to reinstate within ourselves the authority, the sovereignty of the divine Principle.*
