One of my favorite articles by L. Ron Hubbard is "My Philosophy".
He states:
"The first principle of my philosophy is that wisdom is meant for anyone who wishes to reach for it. It is the servant of commoner and king alike and should never be regarded with awe.
"Selfish scholars seldom forgive anyone who seeks to break down the walls of mystery and let the people in. Will Durant, the modern American philosopher, was relegated to the scrap heap by his fellow scholars when he wrote a popular book on the subject, The Outline of Philosophy. Thus brickbats come the way of any who seek to bring wisdom to the people over the objections of the 'inner circle.' "
This is so true. L. Ron Hubbard's books are available in stores, in libraries and can be purchased at Scientology churches or online. Unlike other philosophers I've read, these books are simple and are practical. They ANSWER questions -- they don't just post them. And they contain techniques that WORK!
