SupenintencJent £,du ancS (P. (Rock Greetings to all who read this book and congratulations to those of you who have achieved the goals that you have set for yourselves. It is always an inspiration to see young folks develop their ability to think through problems, reach logical conclusions, and then proceed toward realizing their goals. We are living in a very scientific and materialistic world. Often we are blinded and frustrated by this very materialism. We who are living in this midpoint in the twentieth century have a greater knowledge of science, are experiencing one of the most prosperous periods and have the highest standard of living that any gen- eration has known since the Creation; yet, throughout the world there is a great deal of unrest, many new ideologies, much suffering and suspicion among men. Will this great technological monstrosity that mankind has created ultimately destroy him? I believe that we must give more attention to the development of our spiritual life if we are to avoid catastrophe. Materialism untempered by a moral ideology leads to selfishness and greed and the baser instincts of man. True happiness and content- ment as well as security come only through the development of the spiritual nature of men. How are we contributing to the betterment of mankind? What services have we rendered for the good of others? Have we prepared ourselves to enjoy and appreciate the better things in life? These are some of the questions that we must constantly ask ourselves. We are sometimes inclined to forget the old truisms—“It is more blessed to give than to receive”. “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” and that there are Ten Natural Laws that man must obey, if he would be able to live well in a social order. Truly we are living in a better world materially than we have previously ever known. If we would continue, we must also live in a better world morally.
