Σελίδα 214 - What god shall we adore with sacrifice? Him let us praise, the golden child that rose In the beginning, who was born the lord — The one sole lord of all that is — who made The earth, and formed the sky, who giveth life, Who giveth strength, whose bidding gods revere, Whose hiding-place is immortality. Whose shadow, death ; who by his might is king Of all the breathing, sleeping, waking world.
Σελίδα 275 - ... both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!
Σελίδα 37 - The special faculties we have been discussing clearly point to the existence in man of something which he has not derived from his animal progenitors — something which we may best refer to as being of a spiritual essence or nature, capable of progressive development under favourable conditions.
Σελίδα 213 - There is a monotheism that precedes the polytheism of the Veda ; and, even in the invocations of their innumerable gods, the remembrance of a God, one and infinite, breaks through the mist of an idolatrous phraseology, like the blue sky that is hidden by passing clouds.
Σελίδα 15 - Oneness of mind and will with the divine mind and will is not the future hope and aim of religion, but its very beginning and birth in the soul.
