attitudes, its own ego, its own nature. Let

then, only some become wise; others
become wounded. It is this possibility of
transforming a potential wound into a
source of wisdom that leads one to a state
of freedom. If one has put in the
necessary preparation, it can be a very
pleasant and wonderful experience of
growth. But for a majority of the people
in the world, growth happens painfully;
very few people grow blissfully. It is
