and passionate arguments about Truth,
and let them think and say and do those things which make for harmony,
peace, love, and good-will. Let them practice heart-virtue, and search
humbly and diligently for the Truth which frees the soul from all error and
sin, from all that blights the human heart, and that darkens, as with
unending night, the pathway of the wandering souls of earth.

There is one great all-embracing Law which is the foundation and cause of
the universe, the Law of Love. It has been called by many names in various
countries and at various times, but behind all its names the same
unalterable Law may be discovered by the eye of Truth. Names, religions,
personalities pass away, but the Law of Love remains. To become possessed
of a knowledge of this Law, to enter into conscious harmony with it, is to
become immortal, invincible, indestructible.

It is because of the effort of the soul to realize this Law that men come
again and again to live, to suffer, and to die; and when realized,
suffering ceases, personality is dispersed, and the fleshly life and death
are destroyed, for consciousness becomes one with the Eternal.

The Law is absolutely impersonal, and its highest manifested expression is
that of Service. When the purified heart has realized Truth it is then
called upon to make the last, the greatest and holiest sacrifice, the
sacrifice of the well-earned enjoyment of Truth. It is by virtue of this
sacrifice that the divinely-emancipated soul comes to dwell among men,
clothed with a body of flesh, content to dwell among the lowliest and
least, and to be esteemed the servant of all mankind. That sublime humility
which is manifested by the world's saviors is the seal of Godhead, and he
who has annihilated the personality, and has become a living, visible
manifestation of the impersonal, eternal, boundless Spirit of Love, is
alone singled out as worthy to receive the unstinted worship of posterity.
He only who succeeds in humbling himself with that divine humility which is
not only the extinction of self, but is also the pouring out upon all the
spirit of unselfish love, is exalted above measure, and given spiritual
dominion in the hearts of mankind.

All the great spiritual teachers have denied themselves personal luxuries,
comforts, and rewards, have abjured temporal power, and have lived and
taught the limitless and impersonal Truth. Compare their lives and
teachings, and you will find the same simp
