Manly P. Hall quotes :
"Philosophy is the science of estimating values."
- Manly P. Hall
“Wisdom fears no thing, but still bows humbly to its own source, with its deeper understanding, loves all things, for it has seen the beauty, the tenderness, and the sweetness which underlie Life's mystery”
- Manly Palmer Hall -
"Man is born with eyes, yet only after long years of sorrow does he learn to see clearly and in harmony with the Plan."
Manly Palmer Hall
"We can only escape from the world by outgrowing the world. Death may take man out of the world but only wisdom can take the world out of the man.
As long as the human being is obsessed by worldliness, he will suffer from the Karmic consequences of false allegiances.
When however, worldliness is transmuted into Spiritual Integrity he is free, even though he still dwells physically among worldly things."
- Manly Palmer Hall -
"Every soul is engaged in a great work-the labor of personal liberation from the state of ignorance.
The world is a great prison; its bars are the Unknown. And each is a prisoner until, at last, he earns the right to tear these bars from their moldering sockets, and pass, illuminated and inspired into the darkness, which becomes lighted by that presence"
- Manly Palmer Hall -
"Every man has his own world. He dwells in the midst of his little universe as the lord and ruler of the constituent parts of himself.
Sometimes he is a wise king, devoting his life to the needs of his subjects, but more often he is a tyrant, imposing many forms of injustice upon his vassals, either through ignorance of their needs or thoughtlessness concerning the ultimate disaster that he is bringing upon himself.
Man's body is a living temple and he is a high priest, placed there to keep the House of the Lord in order."
- Manly Palmer Hall -
.......
Man cannot fail.
He can go down into troubles, he can destroy he's own values for a certain lenght of time.
But in the end.
Humanity will achieve the ultimate victory of
Reality over illusion,
Truth over error.
It is inevitable.
Nature cannot afford to cuddle delinquency.
Nature has to bring us back to values, to the realities & to the truth of things. When we accept these, we find that nature is a wonderful loving parent.
.......
The world is the schoolroom of God.
Our being in school does not make us learn, but within that school is the opportunity for all learning. It has its grades and its classes, its sciences and its arts, and admission to it is the birthright of man. Its graduates are its teachers, its pupils are all created things. Its examples are Mature, and its rules are God's laws.
Those who would go into the greater colleges and universities must first, day by day, and year by year, work through the common school of life and present to their new teachers the diplomas they have won, upon which is written the name that none may read save those who have received it.
The hours may be long, and the teachers cruel, but each of us must walk that path, and the only ones ready to go onward are those who have passed through the gateway of experience.
......
Let us watch these mighty ones as they pass silently by.
First, Orpheus, playing upon the seven stringed lyre of his own being, the music of the spheres.
Then Hermes, the thrice greatest, with his emerald tablet of divine revelation.
Through the shades of the past we dimly see Krishna, the illuminated, who on the battlefield of life taught man the mysteries of his own soul.
Then we see the sublime Buddha, his yellow robe not half so glorious as the heart it covered,
and our own dear Master, the man Jesus, his head surrounded with a halo of Golden Flame, and his brow serene with the calm of mastery.
Then Mohammed, Zoroaster, Confucius, Odin, and Moses, and others no less worthy pass by before the eyes of the student.
They were the Sons of Flame. From the Flame they came, and to the Flame they have returned. To us they beckon, and bid us join them, and in our robes of self-earned glory to serve the Flame they love.
They were without creed or clan; they served but the one great ideal. From the same place they all came, and to the same place they have returned. There was no superiority there.
Hand in hand they labor for humanity.
Each loves the other, for the power that has made them masters has shown them the Brotherhood of all life.
