________________ The Peak and the Valley In this world, he alone can be called the true enchanter who, casting his magic spell, can subdue the ticklish mind set on the peak of exaltation one moment ago, only to drag him down the next instant into the vale of perdition ! Attachment Discreet attachment creates a feeling of gentle harmony even between the discordant elements of life. Wherefore, attachment no less needs discretion as an essential complementary. Attachment shorn of discretion is dangerous like liquor that lends a touch of blissfulness to intoxication, only to annihilate the intoxicated later on at his own hand. Aspiration Aspiration liberated from its mundane impulse, while one with the noblest urge of the human spirit, can assuredly lead man along the highroad of progress and self-development in life. 26
