---

Those who let themselves be taken from the true path by grand words or great promises or colossal claims show by that a certain mental incapacity, a lack of discrimination. This will have to be adjusted by their own efforts. But they will neither become aware of this need nor be willing to put forth such efforts until forced to do so by disappointment or by being awakened by calamity. Meanwhile they will live as dreamers, without respect for actualities and without being able to look at everyday happenings just as they are.
