The True Divinity Within

Thou Fellows in the City of Michael...

Every community grows in power and influence as its ideal of manhood and womanhood broadens and advances unto truth and love and everlasting order.

Thoughts and opinions may be, and usually are, merely the ephemeral effects of psychological contact and the educational egotism of evolutionary creatures; yet, there are thoughts which spring from inherent principles of eternity; and there are honest deductions, from which the world derives silent hope and sweet satisfaction.

Oh thou children of the One Divinity Center and Living Source .. let us strive to think right, and to evolve in your daily practice all the principles of which we can form any true and broadening conception, both physical and mental and emotional.

Let thine armor be your honest thought, truthfulness, temerity and tenacity, vulnerability, and righteousness. Allow the simplicty of pure and simple truth be your utmost strategy for attainment.

Verily, there is such a thing as doing right for its own sake, irrespective of the good it might produce into ourselves. Man must be true-hearted, reverent, and only then, righteousness shall prevail .. faithfulness shall develop .. harmonious trustworthy relationships shall grow strong; for ye must not only know that it is wrong to do certain things because of the consequence to thyself and to all others, but ye must feel regardful of the interest and development of thine kindred neighbors, and the surrounding world wherein Life exists in its everywhereness.

Human life shall mature as each individual allows themself ever to act rightly .. and never to act contrary to knowledge and justice.

This true and grand nobility of thine developing stature of the personality soul is more than meat and drink; it is thine saving grace, thine perpetual protection, and thine ever-inspiring eternalization. It bringeth a great inspiriting which fills fully thine sphere of influence and purifies thine radiating emanations touching to all those around thee; it is the flower and flavor of the One Life of Existence.
