The Lord will perfect that which concerneth thee. —PSALM 138:8
"The natural order of evolution has brought us to a place where there is a quickening of the spirit, a keener perception of the mind, a deeper introspection of the soul; the veil between Spirit and matter is thinning. We are emerging into a spiritual universe, proclaimed alike by the philosopher, the religionist, the scientist, and the idealist, and yet the nature of Reality or ultimate Truth cannot have changed. Two and two were four a million years ago. The awakening is to the Mind and Spirit.
The passing of old orders of thought is but a proclamation of the inauguration of new and higher orders. Modern psychology, metaphysics, and philosophy all announce a new birth of the Mind, a new discovery of the self, a new consciousness of the intimacy of the Mind with the subtle Spirit within each of us.
There appears to be one persistent purpose behind the great forward movement of evolution, namely, the expression of Intelligence, through creation, into higher, finer, and more complex forms. An insistent and intelligent Urge in the Life-Principle impels it to express. Spirit is forever clothing itself in form. If we were to ask our imagination why this is so, the answer might be that God Himself would remain a nonentity unless He were expressed. Even to the Infinite, some form of creative action and expression is necessary.”
