It's a rip-off!

Peter A. Berg

Not long ago, a friend handed me a gift. I thanked him, took it home, and threw it away! That was solid proof of progress in my life. What was the gift? It was a poster that a lot of guys might find very appealing.

As I filed it under "trash," I found myself saying to that smiling face, "You may not realize it right now, but you are incorporeal—a spiritual idea of God, not a body!"

I've come to learn that my very life, and all mankind's joy, beauty, and health, depend on our ability to put aside this dream of sensuality and corporeality—error's monumental rip-off! A measure of victory over that crippling trip to nowhere is a sacred experience.
