"God is the Master of all and He is the sum total of omniscience, being (as is easily seen) the sum total of all states of consciousness. He is the soul of all things, and the soul of the atom of matter as well as the souls of men are a part of His infinite realisation."

17 |
"Love reveals the unity underlying all forms."
|
|
18 |
"As a person arrives at a knowledge of himself, under the great law of analogy he arrives at the knowledge of God."

|

"The essential characteristic of consciousness is love."
|
|
