Comprehension:
All the great religious teachers of mankind have insisted on this : that men ought not to live for themselves
alone. We ought not, they have said, to spend all our time and energy in getting just what we want for ourselves,
power and money and importance in the world; we ought to serve something greater than ourselves, whether a
god or a cause or our fellowmen. It is by serving this something greater that men will forget themselves and so
achieve happiness. This or something like it is what the great religions have taught, and it is one of the most
important of the things that civilization means. It is also the hardest to learn and practise; in fact, most people
have found it much too hard.
