Theos-Talk Archives (June 2010 Message tt00033)

We don't use the words very often because all too often those who do end up 
 as part of a con game.

I am glad to see the message. Many theosophists, especially in the  west
rarely discuss this issue of confidence or trust. We tend to focus  on
esoteric facts and issues and miss the fundamental key issue such  as
confidence. Confidence is a very simple and fundamental concept and does  
not
need a scholar or a PhD to explain it to the masses.

Even in  worldly affairs, when we deal with others, especially in the area  
of
personal services, confidence plays a very critical part. Anyone who  has
been in business would vouch for it.

When this is the case with  ordinary worldly matters, does it surprise that
in spiritual matters,  complete confidence is critical.
