"Please, decide that you are going to be one of those who will do what you can do, every moment, every day, to free yourself and those around you from the oppression of a belief in an angry, punishing, vengeful, and violent God….Do this in whatever way presents itself to you. Out of your intention and determination those opportunities will come to you in the day-to-day living of your life. Open your eyes and you'll see them all around you."

"Until we are everything that we in our ignorance believe surrounds us, there is no complete consciousness. We may study the star intellectually, but we have never attained consciousness until we are the star, the stone, the heavens, and the earth. When our consciousness is perfect we extend from the heights of height to the depths of depth; we permeate the whole nature of existence; we are in everything, we are through everything, we are the whole nature of everything."
|
|
| 6 |
"Man, gazing into the eyes of man, beholds therein his Maker. His Creator sings to him with the voice of the wilderness, and descends upon him from the stars that spangle the heavens by night."

“All are embraced within the span of the eternal philosophic NOW.”
|

“Since the generated world is a collective whole, if we apply the ears of our intellect to the world we shall, perhaps, hear it thus addressing us: ‘There is no doubt but I was composed from all animals, entirely sufficient to myself, and destitute of nothing;…All things are contained in my ample bosom.” Plotinus, ‘On Providence’
|

"The rational soul is necessarily unselfish because it conceives self to be distributed throughout the entire substance of Being."
|
|
| 12 |
"Mankind may be considered as a vast organism with one Spirit or Self manifesting through an infinite number of organisms."
|
|
| 13 |
“It is predestined that the Golden Age shall come again; that men shall live together in love and understanding, and the earth shall become once more a garden of surpassing beauty as it was in the beginning.”
|
|
| 14 |
“He who becomes luminous shines not with a separate light but rather is merged with the one light whose radiance is diffused throughout all worlds.”
|
|
| 15 |
"The world is not the product of casual effort or the work of irrational fortune, but the offspring of an intellectual nature and a divine wisdom."

“Humanity’s sphere of influence is as far-reaching as creation, and what we first agitate diverges to the shores of eternity like the ripples from a stone thrown upon the surface of some placid lake.”
|
|
| 20 |
“For this age we must have a doctrine of synthesis, a code actuated and dominated by the spirit of unification.”
|
|
| 21 |
“The One Supreme Power manifesting throughout the cosmic organism should be considered as manifesting through all created things.”
|
|

"Man is as surely clothed in the garments of virtue as he is in the garments of the physical; they are vehicles of his expression no less real than are the members formed of bone, flesh, or sinew."

|
| 23 |
"We are destined by Eternal Providence to become the fullness of ourselves….we shall find perfection in the consummation of the destiny for which we were first conceived."
|
|
| 24 |
“Perfect rhythms stream continually from the splendor of Abiding Destiny.”
|
|
| 25 |
“Having ultimately attained through right thinking, right feeling, and right living to the condition of the beautiful within ourselves, with enraptured vision we can respond in perfect measure to the eternal beauty which flows from the inexhaustible fountain of the one Good.”
