He Who Wants To Keep His Garden

In A Dream I Walked With God Through The Deep Places Of Creation; Past Walls That Receded And Gates That Opened Through Hall After Hall Of Silence, Darkness And Refreshment--the Dwelling Place Of Souls Acquainted With Light And Warmth--until, Around Me, Was An Infinity Into Which We All Flowed Together And Lived Anew, Like The Rings Made By Raindrops Falling Upon Wide Expanses Of Calm Dark Waters.

The Breaking Wave And The Muscle As It Contracts Obey The Same Law. Delicate Line Gathers The Body's Total Strength In A Bold Balance. Shall My Soul Meet So Severe A Curve, Journeying On Its Way To Form?

Each Day The First Day: Each Day A Life.

Humility Is Just As Much The Opposite Of Self-abasement As It Is Of Self-exaltation. To Be Humble Is Not To Make Comparisons. Secure In Its Reality, The Self Is Neither Better Nor Worse, Bigger Nor Smaller, Than Anything Else In The Universe. It Is ? Is Nothing, Yet At The Same Time One With Everything. It Is In This Sense That Humility Is Absolute Self-effacement.

Your Position Never Gives You The Right To Command. It Only Imposes On You The Duty Of So Living Your Life That Others Can Receive Your Orders Without Being Humiliated.
