People grow and develop and reach heights through their worship, adoration, appreciation, and devotion. The objects that are sacred to them, the objects that elevate and uplift them must not be attacked, dishonored, or disgraced. Such objects create a focus of feeling, a vortex of thought, and a whirlpool of psychic energy which is needed for the work of transformation.
Thus, you must be alert and awake that people do not dare disgrace and dishonor your popular or religious images in any way, for any reason, because nations and groups advance by the hero which they hold in their hearts. To destroy their heroes is to destroy their hearts.
