is desirable and what is undesirable concentration ? Desirable and undesirable are relative terms, therefore their meaning must be fixed. Whatever concentration forwards the life-object, that is desirable; the life object should be the development of character. There are two methods of developing the character (1) the natural method and (2) the scientific method.
(1) The natural method is to let things alone, and then in the course of millions of years the character will be developed by natural means.
(2) The scientific method requires knowledge; and can do in a short time what is naturally a very long process.
The use of concentration, its place in the universe, is this scientific development of character; the burning or leaving out of bad character and the building in of good.
