 "The Mind is the Slayer of the Real.  Let the Disciple slay the Slayer." - HPB
>
First of all one would question whether HPB sees this correctly. Unless it
implies that the human mind, limited by its evolutionary brain-development,
is not the instrument to assess reality.
I object to the word "slay" in the second sentence. To attempt to slay the
mind is tentamount to failure. The mind should learn its place, become quiet
when matters beyond its reach are involved. Then the disciple may  hear the
whisper of  silence.
