<p class=MsoNormal style="margin:0; text-align:justify; mso-pagination:
none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; line-height:150%">REASON is an agility
gymnast. It can move in all varieties of ways, make infinite twists, the most
impossible contor­tions with equal ease and skill. It does not seek the truth,
although it may pretend to do so; for it cannot find the truth. The law of
uncertainty or indeterminacy seems also to be the last word of modern Science.
What Reason does and can do is to justify, find arguments for whatever position
it is put in or called upon to support. Its business is to supply &quot;proofs&quot;:
it can do so as the spider brings out of itself the whole warp and woof of the
cobweb. There is no truth, that is to say, no con­clusion which it cannot
demonstrate and all with equal cogency. That was indeed the great discovery of
the great Kant who des­cribed it as the antinomies of Reason. Reason finds it
infinitely exhilarating to pirouette <i>ad infinitum, </i>i.e., beating about
the bush without caring to look for the fact or reality hidden in the bush.</p>

<p class=MsoNormal style="margin:0; text-align:justify; text-indent:13.5pt; mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; line-height:150%">Is
it then to say that this faculty is a falsehood and that it can lead you only
to falsehood? Not necessarily. It becomes a falsehood when you try to live
according to it, according to an idea or ideas it has taken a fancy to; for
then it is bound to land you in contradictions. Otherwise, if it is not a
question of practical application, if it is merely a play or playfulness in the
mental world, it is harmless acrobatics; and even in its own way it can be of
some use in making your brain sharp, alert, strong and supple.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style="margin:0; text-align:justify; text-indent:11.5pt; mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; line-height:150%">Reason
is a bad master; a free-lance, it often goes amuck. But curbed and yoked,
reined in and guided by the higher light, it is a help, even a necessity; for
it gives the immediate form in which to hold and fix in the physical world the
truth movements of the higher consciousness.<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>
