Slušanje ili proučavanje starih priča, starih ("svetih") tekstova, temeljenje života na riječima "pismoznanaca"..., ljudi su fascinantno skloni tome. Dogma, kao ni sama ideja dogme, nema i ne može imati nikakvo mjesto u dubljem čovjekovom razvoju. Dogma je i reprezentira statičnost i nepromjenjivost. Kakve veze kao takva ima sa Životom, koji je sve samo ne nepokretan(?) Vrijednost starih priča ( i starih duhovnih načina i pravaca) može biti jedino u traženju simbola koji ukazuju na univerzalne istine. I tu njihova vrijednost prestaje.
"It is very certain that it is the effect of conversation with the beauty of the soul, to beget a desire and need to impart to others the same knowedge and love.
The man enamored in this excellency, becomes its priest or poet.
The spirit only can teach. Not any profane man, not any sensual, not any liar, not any slave can teach, but only he can give, who has; he only create, who is.
The man on whom the soul descends, through whom the soul speaks, alone can teach.
Courage, piety, love, wisdom, can teach; and every man can open his door to this angels, and they shall bring him the gift of tongues.
But the man who aims to speak as books enable, as synods use, as the fashion guides, and as interest comands, babbles. Let him hush." Waldo Emerson (Divinity school address)
