Description
Excerpt from Selections
The sense of separateness belongs to the demon of self consciousness. In moments of self-forgetfulness we feel our kinship with Nature, and, throbbing with its pulse, have glimpses of the truth, in which we are united to all that lives and to all that gives life. There is no more room for the pride of self, no sense of degrees of great or small; only the perception that the life within us reaches out through space and time is one with the nearest blade of grass and the most distant star in the heavens; is one with all that was, or is, or ever shall be; for in ourselves we feel the same life that fills the universe, and is without beginning and without end.
