Guest guest Posted March 10, 2000 Report Share Posted March 10, 2000 So it is in every case-with the professor in his chair, the student with his book-with every man who is working to know. You are hearing me, and if my words interest you, your mind will become concentrated on them; and then suppose a clock strikes, you will not hear it, on account of this concentration; and the more you are able to concentrate your mind, the better you will understand me; and the more I concentrate my love and powers, the better I shall be able to give expression to what I want to convey to you. The more this power of concentration, the more knowledge is acquired, because this is the one and only method of acquiring knowledge. -- _________________________ -- |\___/|-~~~~~-.
