59 • Even GOD hasn’t escaped its effects, as one even fanatically disputes the question about HIS EXISTENCE. How can this terribly evil, spiritual disorder be healed? - All dogmas and sermons are in vain. Fanaticism is inconvincible; it will always insist that it is right. The worst situation arises when fanatics oppose each other. - It can’t go on like this, as it has already come to a point where chaos is just around the corner. Fanaticism declares that genocide is a “holy war” . Well, in America, under the influence of drugs and narcotics, some even declared that the devil is GOD and they worship and venerate him at the altar. This is the pinnacle of fanaticism. I now have specified evil for you. You can now observe and assess it. But why do I do this? I call on you to be composed! Let not fanaticism of any shape or form influence you. Reject this dangerous delusion. I call on you to be composed! For instance, do you want to celebrate Christmas fanatically or harmoniously? Do you want to spend your days fanatically and in uneasiness - or do you want to think about positive and beautiful things peacefully? - It takes inner composure to live a righteous and peaceful life. What is inner composure?  Inner composure to us means that we don’t pay homage to the antagonist by succumbing to his blackmail and fall for his artful seductions. All fanatics make themselves ill and must die prematurely. Many suffer a violent death or commit suicide. There is nothing positive in this. Fanaticism is an extremely dangerous poison for the soul, it attacks people like a bacillus. Therefore practice inner composure: You will remain objective , because only peace and harmony will allow you to assess the situation correctly. Inner composure ought to be a subject at school . The Churches also ought to explain and teach inner composure. People perform many exercises. There are doctrines, which are supposed to guide you to your HIGHER SELF… But I advice you: • Practice inner composure first , because it will give you strength! 24. About the craving for recognition (Transmission from the year 1970) Well, the craving for recognition, the opposite of humility, is a dangerous evil for every human being. Therein lays a major danger in regards to the redemption and the development of anyone who is presently absolving the school of life here on Earth. The craving for recognition does not directly stand out as a sin or a vice, but it can influence one’s development equally powerful just the same. • The craving for recognition is an idiosyncrasy through which many have lost their life. One risks one’s life just so one is noticed and so people talk about one . If one is not successful in grabbing people’s attention through positive actions, one eventually reaches for negative means, one might even turn to crime. The scale of this idiosyncrasy is enormous. Well, even suicide is not an exception.
