recognize the immortal creature living in you. This creature now looks at itself as somebody who is subject to all kinds of limitations and conditions. At this moment you begin to experience the power of that desire, that is what has made you a Seeker, that is what has given this booklet into your hands, and that is what will fan the tiny flame into a burning fire. The awakening of that desire is what will lead you to Alertness, from which your oldnew Self is going to emerge like a phoenix. Let us finally warn you again not to allow the categorizing and analytical approach of your mind to disturb you in the process of reading the book. Instead, read in quiet tranquility with an open heart and an open mind, so that words may come to life in you. Do not attempt to obtain the knowledge outlined below; let it mature into experience in yourself, since it is only personal experience is able to increase your greatest treasure: Alertness. Frank M. Wanderer
