It is true that there have been people who have used other forms of manifestation that deviate from neighbourly love, that is to say, forms that are to some extent unloving or warlike, and these beings made an impression on people so that they ended up worshipping them; but what has become of these beings' supremacy today? Have not the histories of all persons from the past faded completely when compared to those of the world redeemers? What does it mean to have fine royal robes with a crown and sceptre, and the sworn allegiance of the people of some large country, when all this magnificence can only be maintained – not through neighbourly love – but with the help of brutality and subjugation, with the help of armies, instruments of murder, prisons, torture and the death penalty? Which of the great uninitiated pharaohs, kings or emperors from the past, or other uninitiated great leaders, has been able to leave behind such authority that he could go on leading a people and a kingdom in such a way that it grew and grew over the millennia as the kingdoms of the world redeemers did?
      Is it not the case that the kingdoms of the world redeemers are the largest kingdoms on Earth today, despite the fact that thousands of years have elapsed since these princes left the physical plane? Which material king whose might is based on weaponry, armies and instruments of murder can boast anything even approximately like them? Have they not all gone the way of all flesh?
      All that is left today that speaks of the great untenability and transitory nature of these beings and their kingdoms are some monumental tombs, several more or less obliterated hieroglyphs along with sun-baked crumbling heaps of rubble in the desert sands. Their splendour was an illusion. It did not consist of sunlight shining on the just and the unjust. On the contrary, its commanding power consisted of dark clouds in the terrestrial human mental skies that blotted out the sun and enveloped everything in bad weather, thunder and lightning, thereafter to disappear without trace. Today they are gone just like the clouds that chased across the skies of yesterday.
      We can see here in the terrestrial human mental skies how the great kings and their kingdoms that are based on neighbourly love constitute a constant sunlight shining on and lighting up the just and the unjust, and equally constantly still continuing to exist, while all kings and kingdoms that are based on might, murder and mutilation, like bad weather clouds, have no inherent permanence, constancy or imperishability. They suppress and destroy all mental freedom and are themselves inevitably destroyed. And in this way the ruins in the desert sands show that the powerful oppressors sowed death and destruction and therefore just as inevitably had to reap death and destruction. And have we not just seen the same drama played out before our present-day physical eyes? Have we not witnessed characters in the drama inflaming almost half the world into fanatically worshipping them along with their methods and principles that constituted pure oppression and annihilation of all those who thought differently, through the use of violence, force and terror and specially adapted instruments of torture, gas chambers and weaponry etc.? Their kingdoms were made up of people who were slaves and slave-drivers, they were prisons in which all terrestrial human individuality and self-dependence had to be destroyed and wiped out. No greater contrast to neighbourly love can be shown, manifested or attained. And what sort of harvest was it? And where are the individuals today who wanted to rule the world and who, through their own self-adulation, lost their way in their foolish belief that they could create a world of happiness, could harvest joy and blessings, by sowing death and destruction, brutality, mutilation, torture and the massacre of everything that opposed them? They thought that they could reap freedom and independence for themselves and their friends by binding and restricting other people. They did not understand that in so doing they were cocooning themselves within a web of karma that would render both themselves and their people the most wretched, the most bound and restricted, the most wounded and tortured people in the world. In fact these previously so headstrong and celebrated world leaders are not even granted a life in a dim and dismal prison cell. One fled in terror from the very world whose leader he was on the point of believing he was or would become, while another was overtaken by the same form of death that he in a multitude of cases had brought on his neighbour. And what became of the henchmen and helpers? Were they not later condemned to death by the war crimes tribunals, while others went cold and hungry, hobbling around in rags or without clothes in the ruins of their previously so noble cities, palaces, royal castles, churches and cathedrals, universities and seats of learning, closely guarded, imprisoned and restricted by the very people that they themselves had wanted to restrict.
