Franklin Merrell-Wolff's teaching

Here's an attempt to pick out key points that represent Franklin Merrell-Wolff's teaching.

Use whichever side of the thinking vs. feeling dichotomy is your strength
.
Absorb the words of illumined men. They will strengthen your desire for liberation
.
Develop your ability to discriminate
.
Be aware of the race-horse and donkey team. If intellect is your strength, it may try to run ahead while conflicting emotions become stubborn and dig in their heels
.
The door to awakening is dhyana, the workings of which are a mystery.

Essence-recognition comes through a third way of knowing: in addition to perception and conception there is a direct, immediate introception, or knowledge through identity.
When the desire for illumination becomes primary, it will burn up all resistance
.
Effort attracts help and promotes acceptance.
There is a great advantage to being in the magnetic field of awakened men
.
A real philosophy is a way of life
.
"... Realization manifests in a vast range of forms, some seemingly the opposite of others, so for all men there is somewhere the easiest and most direct Way."
