You
Are Unique
Human personality should be, and
may become, the highest manifestation of God. There is a reservoir
of life and power as we approach the center; it is loosed and
it flows through us to the circumference as we realize the unity
of the whole and our relationship to it. God is incarnated in
all men and individualized through all creation without loss to
Himself.
To be an individual means to exist
as an entity. As God, rightly understood, is the Infinite Person,
so the Spirit is the Infinite Essence of all individuality. Within
the One Supreme Mind, since It is infinite, exists the possibility
of projecting limitless expressions of Itself; but since the Infinite
is infinite, each expression of Itself is unique and different
from any other expression. Thus the Infinite is not divided, but
multiplied.
While all people have the same
origin, no two are alike except in ultimate essence-"One
God and Father of us all," but numberless sonships, each
sonship a unique institution in the universe of wholeness. Man
is an individualized center of God-consciousness and spiritual
power, as complete as he knows himself to be, and he knows himself
only as he comprehends his relationship to the whole.
This Presence, this inner sense
of a greater Reality, bears witness to Itself through our highest
acts and in our deepest emotions. Who is there who has not at
times felt this inner Presence? It is impossible to escape our
true nature. The voice of Truth is insistent. The urge to unfold
is constant. In the long run each will fully express his divinity,
for "good will come at last alike to all."
We stand in the shadow of a mighty
Presence, while love forever points the way to heaven. Mingled
with the voice of humanity is the word of God, for Truth is a
synonym for God, and whoever speaks any truth speaks the word
of God. Science reveals eternal principles; mathematics, immutable
laws; and illumined minds reveal the Eternal Spirit. Behind all
is a unity, through all is a diversity, saturating all is a divinity.
