“Kingdom . . . Kingdom . . . Rule Your Own Kingdom!
Perfect your own Kingdom.
Then, and only then, can you properly take care of a family, help in the community, and be a true human being!
Won’t have to walk . . . to wander alone!
And see, child.
See beyond appearances . . .
See beyond old ladies . . .
See beyond smart‑mouthed kids . . .
See beyond races . . .
See beyond colors . . .
See beyond handicaps . . .
See beyond men . . .
See beyond women . . .
See . . . See beyond, child!”
