When divine vision is attained, all appear equal; and there remains no distinction of good and bad, or of high and low.
Those who see all creatures within themselves, and themselves in all creatures know no fear. Those who see all creatures in themselves, and themselves in all creatures know no grief. How can the multiplicity of life, delude the one who sees its unity?
One is absolutely sickened, not by crimes that the wicked have committed, but by the punishments that the good have inflicted; and a community is infinitely more brutalised by the habitual employment of punishment than it is by the occasional occurrence of crime.
The best things are never arrived at in haste. God is in no hurry; His plans are never rushed.
No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
