WHAT the MYSTICS HAVE TAUGHT
Ernest Holmes
Unity
"Reason declares that that Which is Infinite cannot be divided against Itself. The Infinite cannot be divided against Itself. The Infinite is, therefore indivisible and consequently a Perfect unit. "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is One Lord." It is also "That Whose Center is everwhere and Whose Circumference is nowhere."
All of It is present at any and every point within Itself. It is not approaching a point nor receding from it, but is always at the point. The whole of God is present at any and every point within God. It was to this Indwelling Spirit that Jesus prayed, for God is within man as well as throughout all creation. It is "That thread of the All-Sustaining beauty which runs through all and doth all unite." His lines have gone out into all places." "There is no place where God is not."
This concept enabled Job to say, "In my flesh shall I see God." All life is bound together by One common Law of Love, and Love is the Self-Givingness of Spirit. It was the realization of this One Presence which illumined the saints and sages of the past. "I and the Father are One." "The Father that dwelleth in me, He doeth the works." We must come to sense this marvelous Presence, for this is the secret of successful metaphysical work: God in all and through all.
All manifestation of Life is from an invisible to a visible plane, through a silent, effortless process of spiritual realization. WE MUST UNIFY IN OUR OWN MENTALITIES WITH PURE SPIRIT. To each of us, individually, God or Spirit is the Supreme Personality of the Universe - the Supreme Personality of that which we, ourselves, are. It is only as the relationship of the individual to the Deity becomes enlarged that one has a consciousness of Power."
