The pride of the eye is in the gratification of the emotions

The pride of the eye is in the gratification of the emotions through fulfilling the pleasure of the senses.        -Messengers M & E C Prophet:  Path of Self-Transformation, 2000, p. 102

Beware the pride of the eye and of the evil eye and of a form and a countenance which--though simulating perfection--is hollow, vain and without the quality of a humble humanity bearing the burden of the Lord's body.         -Morya:  Pearls of Wisdom 18:11
....................................................................................
Through the pride of the eye and the degradation of the flame of the Mother mankind have rejected their deliverers.  They have imitated the ways of the fallen ones and scourged and spat upon the true Lamb of God.            -Archangel Chamuel, in Vials of the Seven Last Plagues, 1975/6
