WIND OF THE SPIRIT
G. dePurucker
The author of this book claims that despite the agony and the sadness that we are feeling in our world today, there is a 'wind of the spirit' present within and among us, which is sweeping over the earth, rearranging, remaking, reshaping our world into an ever-clearer Image of the One Divinity which encompasses us all.

"Universal brotherhood means not merely a sentimental or political brotherhood; it means that we are all of one common cosmic or spiritual origin, and that what affects one affects all."

"The great sages and seers, the masters of wisdom and compassion, belong to no race, and especially to no creed. They are the children of the spirit, whose familiar thought is truth itself; and hence their sympathies are universal. They need no frontiers of race, of caste, of creed, of color. They are truth-seekers, truth-teachers….For truth has no age. It never was born, it never has not been. It is timeless because universal. Its appeal is to the hearts and minds of all."

"I am my brother – in our inmost WE ARE ONE."

"The most needed thing for us today is to do our utmost to bring about a renascence, a rebirth, in the minds of all of the truth that this universe of ours is under the most strict cosmical moral law, in other words, of harmony; for what in the universe is harmony, in the human soul we call ethical instinct."
|

"Universal brotherhood – not as merely vague sentimentalism, but as a recognition of human solidarity based on nature's own laws – is, after all, the keynote of any true civilization, and without it no civilization can endure."
|
|
| 7 |
"You cannot enchain the human soul. It will break free."
|
|
| 8 |
"It is our bounden duty to cultivate in our hearts the spirit of brotherly love towards all, however much they may differ from us in philosophical and religious or scientific opinions."
|
|
| 9 |
"Universal brotherhood is inherent in any properly organized and enduring social structure."

"Let not the setting sun reach the western horizon, nor close your eyes in sleep, before you have gone over all the events of the day just past, and have asked yourself: What have I done today that has been done amiss? What have I done today that has been done right? Have I injured anyone? Have I failed in my duty? Let not the setting sun reach the western rim of space, nor let your eyelids close in sleep before you have asked yourself these questions." Pythagoras

"The greatest who have ever lived have taught us that the way to peace and happiness and growth and prosperity and riches and all good things of life is love and justice."
|

"There is an unborn Christ in the soul of every one of us, the Christos, the Prince of Peace, the Prince of Love."
|
|

"We may say with great reverence, yet with all truth, that back of all our labor however imperfectly we human beings may be doing, back of it as its origin and inspiration is this grand divinity."
|
|
| 16 |
"We human beings, as indeed all other things and entities everywhere, are parts of one vast cosmic whole, intimately united together, despite our failings and our stumblings, in the working out of our common destiny."

"This universe is one, broken into multitudes during manifestation; rooted in that One, living from it and by it. In it we live and we move and have all our being."

"Examine the teachings of all the great sages and seers who have appeared. You will find them essentially one, although expressed in different languages, expressed in different forms and formulations of thought appropriate to the respective ages in which each of the messengers appeared. Although clad in various garments, clothed in differing habiliments, the body of truth that they taught and teach is one."

"The divinity lies in your breast, the source of all strength and grandeur; and the more you appeal to it the more you exercise it."
|
|
| 21 |
"All are essentially unified in a divine oneness."
|
|
| 22 |
"There is in every human breast an undying font not only of inspiration, but likewise of growth, of hope, of wisdom, and of love. So that the world today, although apparently in a parlous condition, in a desperate state, still contains in it men and women enough to carry the evolutionary wave of progress over its present turmoil and strife; for the majority of mankind are essentially right in their instincts, especially the higher instincts."
|
|
| 23 |
"There within indeed lie all truth, all harmony, all wisdom, all love, all peace. The inner god within each one of you as an individual is of the very heart of the heart of the universe, and concerning that heart of the universe, each one of you is It."
|
|
| 24 |
"The merest cognizance of spiritual and natural law should tell us that everything that happens in the great and in the small – because the small is included in the great – happens according to divine law."
|
|
| 25 |
"What is this perfect love which casts out all fear? Why, it is simply living in that part of our own self which is universal. It is becoming allied with the divine. Therein lies perfect peace, perfect harmony."
