-Alan Watts-
“When the time comes, that you start to get out of the chain of karma. All the creditors that you have, start presenting themselves for payment. The Christian way of saying the same thing, is that if you plan to change your life. You must not let the devil know. Because he will oppose you with all his might. If he suddenly discovers that your going to escape from his power. For example if you have a bad habit, say you drink to much and you make a new years resolution. That during this coming year you’ll stop drinking. That’s a very dangerous thing to do. Because the devil will immediately know about it, And what will happen will be this. He will confront you with the prospect of 365 drinkless days, and that will be awful, just overwhelming and you won’t be able to make much more than three days on the wagon. So in that case, you compromise with the devil and say, just today. I’m not going to drink. But tomorrow maybe. Then when tomorrow comes, you say just another day, that’s all and the next day you say one more day won’t make much difference. So you only do it for the moment and you don’t let the devil know, that you have a secret intention of going on day after day after day.”
