And strangely enough, men and women who ought to know better think

all morality will be destroyed if these little selves go and stand

aghast at the idea that morality can only stand upon their

destruction. The watchword of all well-being, of all moral good is

not " I " but " thou " . Who cares whether there is a heaven or a hell,

who cares if there is a soul or not, who cares if there is an

unchangeable or not? Here is the world, and it is full of misery. Go

out into it as Buddha did, and struggle to lessen it or die in the

attempt.
