710) Those who are deceived by truths/obligations believe that the Void is nihilism. They are blind and arrogant fools. They see “nothing,” yet want to dictate laws to those who have “sight.”
711) Those who accuse followers of different paths of being unable to comprehend “their” truth, possess only the truth of their falsity. They live only for themselves and respect only themselves.
712) Those who need to affirm themselves are confronted by their own limits and are slaves to opposites and contradictions.
713) Study! Even the power of thought can change the world. The new effect of every movement, thought, meditation, or prayer changes the deterministic chaos which regulates the world.
714) Here they are, the subject and its journey. Both are the Great Freedoms that the Archivist observes so as to better narrate them. Along with their words, their mistakes, their illusions. Theirs? Nothing is theirs. But Freedom convinces them that they possess.
715) Those who fight the Truth because they are ashamed will lose themselves and will discover nothing but the Truth.
716) Those who are not aware of others are not aware of themselves. Those who forget about others forget themselves. Those who selfishly believe to take care of themselves are getting sick. Truthfully, those who live only for themselves are dead inside.
717) Every illusion generates a path which diverts. What a marvel! And so the Way comes closer.
718) When seeking one’s own Way, it is simple to get up after a fall, to proceed after having stagnated. But if one follows false paths of others, of false paternity, it will be difficult to get up and proceed.
719) The arrogant do not avoid mistakes, they make them. They do not blame themselves, they blame others. They create suffering and chaos. In their madness, they believe them to be “universally recognized” justice.
