“How shall our unconscious – from which so many of our fears, compulsions and phony aspirations still stream – be brought into line with what we actually believe, know and want! How to convince our dumb, raging and hidden ‘Mr. Hyde’ becomes our main task.” (The Best of Bill pp. 42-43)
“We may still be
fearful from time to
time, but we no long-
er have to react to fear
in destructive ways.” “The
God of our understanding
has taken us from spiritual-
ly unconscious, hopeless
addicts to spiritually a-
ware, recovering ad-
dicts eager to live.”
(It Works, How &
Why, p. 53)
“The definition of
genius is that it acts
unconsciously; and those
who have produced immortal
works, have done so without
knowing how or why. The
greatest power oper-
ates unseen.”
-William Hazlitt (1778 – 1830) British spiritual author

The Rightful Owner
This Short Story The Rightful Owner is quite interesting to all the people. Enjoy reading this story.
One day, the cow fell ill and stopped giving milk. Thinking she would never recover, Gopal drove her out of his house. “Now my owner does not need me. I will never return to him,” thought the sad cow and ran away.
On the way, the hungry cow fell unconscious. Dharma, a kind-hearted farmer noticed her and brought her to his house.
After a few days, the cow recovered. Dharma thought, “I wonder who this cow belongs to.” But he was unable to find the owner. Soon, the cow gave birth to a calf and started giving milk again. Dharma fed her well and looked after the calf, too. By selling the cow’s milk, Dharma became a wealthy man. Everyone wanted to buy Dharma’s cow’s milk. The cow’s fame spread everywhere.

Gopal too came to know about this event. “I wonder if that cow is the same one I had driven away,” thought Gopal. When Gopal went to Dharma’s house, he found that is was indeed his cow. “That cow belongs to me,” said Gopal. But Dharma refused to return the cow.
“I will take the help of the Village Administration,” shouted Gopal. And the next day, the Village Administrator heard this case. Immediately, the Village Administration Council assembled. Everyone was eager to know what the judgment would be. “Let the cow decide for herself who she wants to live with,” said the Village Administrator.
So the cow was placed between Dharma and Gopal. The cow was asked by the Village Administrator to with the person whom she wanted to live with. The cow walked away from Gopal and started licking Dharma’s hand. She knew the difference between Gopal’s selfishness and Dharma’s kindness. The Village Administrator handed over the cow to the rightful owner, Dharma.

I haven’t had to deal with him as he hasn’t been as active since I stopped drinking. For me to stay sober over the long term, I need some thrill to satisfy Mr. Hyde. I need to scare the hell out of myself once in a while to remind myself I am alive. I need to take some semi “safe” thrills like skydiving or car racing on a track. Safe as opposed to driving home drunk from the bar or getting twisted and ending up in an orgy with 10 people.
