Aphorism #168 Do not indulge in the Eccentricities of Folly.

Like vain, presumptuous, egotistical, untrustworthy, capricious, obstinate, fanciful, theatrical,whimsical, inquisitive, paradoxical, sectarian people and all kinds of one-sided persons: they are all monstrosities of impertinence. All deformity of mind is more obnoxious than that of the body, because it contravenes a higher beauty. Yet who can assist such a complete confusion of mind? Where self-control is wanting, there is no room for others' guidance. Instead of paying attention to other people's real derision, men of this kind blind themselves with the unfounded assumption of their imaginary applause.http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtOfWorldlyWisdom?d=yIl2AUoC8zA (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtOfWorldlyWisdom?a=R0c9CZ7wu8c:8-mrxMDSsw0:yIl2AUoC8zA) http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtOfWorldlyWisdom?d=qj6IDK7rITs (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtOfWorldlyWisdom?a=R0c9CZ7wu8c:8-mrxMDSsw0:qj6IDK7rITs)

Ten of these sound like a world when they are only a small minority. They shoot explanations like a machine gun. One sided, locked in their useless karma, unfounded meditations. Their past lives and reincarnations are of this ill biological life, although many talk about biological after death. One way, then another, and another unfounded assumption and postulation.
