The West

Month, Day: 169, Might, Sovereignty (Perfection)

Yesterday, the 23rd saw the arrival, 100 years ago, of the Master in the first western city, though Nebraska was frontier, to boot. So, we'll enjoy the next month's diary.

It is telling, more than many might know, that the Master traveled coach out of Lincoln. How many bigwigs, of all Faiths -- yes, even those of the New Era, travel as if they're of a higher class? We'll go on about that later.Yes, some of these making oodles of bucks, to boot.

Of course, in the latter stages of His visit on the East Coast, before leaving for the west, the Master noted that there needs to be hierarchy, for order. That is, we can't all be officers, or generals. Yet, those in the upper ranks seems to differentiate themselves as being better (don't deny it, folks -- of course, not all, I've known some real good leaders, few and far between) than those they lead (ah, manage, let's say?).

Sorry, iconoclasm seems to appropriate when looking at the muck of these days.

So, now is the time for me to look at significances, from my view, of course, of the events of so long ago. It was enlightening to just become aware of what explains a whole lot of phenomena (ah, yes, outside of science? think again). But, hey, I'm a westerner (as are many others); and, I have decades being involved with this side of the country (naturally, the Nation -- and some of its interests -- subsumes these western states) which the Master saw as having much potential. The quotes today: He called on American to become a land of spiritual distinction and leadership and gave a powerful vision of America's spiritual destiny.

We keep hearing that we don't know the full value of the Visit. That is an understatement.
