Question: Has one element superiority over another? For instance, is a thought colored by fire superior to a thought colored by another element. Answer: There is no superiority of one element over another. The superiority of a thought is according to the outlook of the mind. For instance, one person standing on the ground sees the horizon just before him; this is one outlook. Another person stands on the top of a tower and from there he looks at the wide horizon; his outlook is different. It is according to the outlook that the thought is superior or inferior. Besides, no one can take a thought, any thought-picture before himself and say: "This is an inferior thought", or: "This is a superior thought." Thought is not an earthly coin which can be inferior or superior. What makes it inferior or superior is the motive behind it.
