We are in
control of infinite material power, but we know nothing of the depths of the human heart,
we know nothing of the poison and the nectar that lies hidden there, side by side. We know the atomic structure of matter but nothing of the atomic
structure of the soul.
And this is our great misfortune. We have achieved power,
but no peace, no enlightenment.
There is great power in the hands of the unenlightened, of
the unawakened.
But these are the people who should not be allowed to
possess power; if it is misused, power can wreak great evil.
Our whole search has been for power. |
