Mankind is poised midway between the gods and the beasts. God is not external to anyone, but is present with all things, though they are ignorant that he is so. “I am striving to give back the Divine in myself to the Divine in the All.” “The world is knowable, harmonious, and good.”
Self-knowledge reveals to the soul that its natural motion is not, if uninterrupted, in a straight line, but circular, as around some inner object, about a center, the point to which it owes its origin.” Wherever it lies, under earth or over earth, the body will always rot. Before we had our becoming here, we existed There, men other than now; we were pure souls. Intelligence inbound with the entire of reality, not fenced off, integral to that All When we look outside of that on which we depend we ignore our unity; looking outward we see many faces; look inward and all is one head. If a man could but be turned about, he would see at once God and himself and the All.” To make the existence and coherent structure of this Universe depend upon automatic activity and upon chance is against all good sense.”
