"One of the purposes of higher truth is to make us feel something
we did not feel before. One such feeling is _delight_. Now, delight
is entirely different from excitement. Excitement must depend
upon an exterior source, like attending a party or meeting an
attractive person of the opposite sex. But delight is totally
independent, for it exists as a reality within yourself. If no
one else on earth felt delight, you could feel it. Have you not
felt a new delight, perhaps briefly, by absorbing these
higher truths?"
