In this situation of world crisis, intelligent mystics should feel no longer able to support the traditional policies of inertia, indifference, and escapism. They should be interested in humanity's present upheaval and future direction. They should be thinking about how they can contribute something--however little--to help it go upwards out of this terrible trial to a higher life and not sink downwards to a lower one.
