Introduction by Comrade Oz

These are the four pillars of  of Maoism--the highest developement of Marxist 
dialectical materialist philosophy.

Marx said philosophers have sufficiently understood the world the point 
however is to change it.

If you want to understand Mao's methods of thinking and of analysing and 
changing the world, to figure out how this amazing
leader of a communist party was able to scientificaly lead his people to 
acheive their own liberation in their hundreds of millions,
then you have to read these articles.

These philosophical essays are not meant for self-cultivation or simply 
philosophical methods of studying your navel. They are about how to change 
our material reality and mankind itself using the method of revolutionary  
class struggle.

That is the purpose of studying Mao. If you do not understand them on a first 
reading as philosophy, that's because you are missing the point that Marx 
made. Try applying them to the real material world and you will learn in practice.

They will broden your mind  giving you the same tools of Marxist philosophy 
he used and that  you can use too,
in order to unite with others and be successfull in changing the world for 
the benefit of the world's peoples and future generations.

Mao gives us confidence in the exploited and oppressed and therefore confidence in the future for 
humynkind because, once correct ideas are grasped by the people they become a material force 
that changes the world.
