How do I know that this is true?
By looking inside of myself.
Chapter 54, Mitchell
IX. ATTRACT BY SUBTLE EXAMPLE
So much more spirit survives when the most important
points are put in as subtle a framework as will just lend coherence,
but in no way intrude upon the receiver as anything more than mere
suggestion.
Creativists attract by example. They create, for
themselves, and make real their environment, while patiently waiting
for others to arrive. They live with the belief that others think
like they do, and will appreciate their efforts, and that these
others will reveal themselves in time.
You've got to give up all odds of success. Subtlety
won't catch many fish, but it will help greatly to keep the ones
you happen to hook. This is because you're not forcing you on them.
You're only inviting them to "discover" the truths you hold by hinting
just enough to cause them to consider things along lines of thought
revealed by you.
You'll catch those most ready to embrace your ideals.
You'll leave behind those who'll need major-league proof, cajoling,
and propagandizing. These people are not worth the creative energy.
Concentrate on the few that are ready to understand.
Creativists are concerned with making, not marketing.
They merely offer their products, and have faith that their work
is worthwhile. They do not advertise. They don't engage in self-promotion.
They don't preach from the pulpit and declare their way the better
way. They know they need no defense, no justification, for what
they bring into being.
They simply create.
These are the Nine Principles of Immuexa. Together
they describe a plan for social change. How do I know this plan
will work? What makes me think these ideas have merit? Why do I
believe that many others will agree and will live their lives according
to these principles?
Because my heart says it will be so.
Any questions?
