To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And these laws do not run counter to gravitation and cohe- sion and the centripetal forces. F Men of flabby faith are jeal- ous of others with goods and chattels. These jealous men de- sire material rewards for spir- [40] itual services, and curse God, longing for fleshpots. Then is not their covetousness their pun- ishment? Indeed, is not all sin its own penalty? Does not greed and lust and meanness shrivel the soul so that it may not en- joy the marvelous spectacle of life passing before us? ...Thus the greedy man may gain the world and lose his own soul. He must lose his own soul if he gains the world, for he moves in the cycle of the ether, and cannot travel in the larger cycle. But never- theless he may gain the world. There is no law, physical or spir- Hl] itual, against that. He may ex- cite his senses. He may have pleasure. There is no law against that. He may dodge the penalties of the physical world. That is not impossible. CJ All thieves are not caught; but all are punished. The senses grow dull.
