MAN Is DIVINE

CHILDREN OF IMMORTAL BLISS--what a sweet, what a hopeful name! Allow me to call you, brethren, by that sweet name---heirs of immortal bliss--yea, the Hindu refuses to call you sinners. Ye are the Children of God, the sharers of immortal bliss, holy and perfect beings. Ye devinities on earth--sinners! It is a sin to call a man so; it is a standing libel on human nature. Come up, O lions, and shake off the delusion that you are sheep; you are souls immortal, spirits free, blest and eternal; ye are not matter, ye are not bodies; matter is your servant, not you the servant of matter.

Even this world, this body and mind are superstitions; what infinite souls you are! And to be tricked by twinkling stars! It is a shameful condition. You are devinities; the twinkling stars owe their existence to you.

Everything that is strong, and good, and powerful in human nature is the outcome of that divinity, and though potential in many, there is no difference between man and man essentially, all being alike divine. There is, as it were, an infinite ocean behind, and you and I are so many waves, coming out of that infinite ocean; and each one of us is trying his best to manifest that infinite outside. So, potentially, each one of us has that infinite ocean of Existence, knowledge, and Bliss as our Birthright, our real nature; and the difference between us is cause by the greater or lesser power to manifest that that divine.

This infinite power of the spirit, brought to bear upon maater evolves material development, made to act upon thought evolves intellectality, and made to act upon itself makes of man a 5odhikar.
Manifest the divinity within you, and everything will be harmoniously arranged around it.
