Description
Excerpt from The Way, the Truth and the Life: A Hand Book of Christian Theosophy, Healing, and Pschychic Culture, a New Education, Based Upon the Ideal and Method of the Christ
The first consciousness of man as we know him per tains almost exclusively, if not quite wholly, to his external being and conditions. In this sphere of his consciousness and personal activities, he has freedom of choice and volition. Because of this personal free dom and responsibility, it is left to him, as soon as he shall become conscious of the nature of his inward life and its divine possibilities, to adjust the external man and its conditions to a full co-ordination with the inward life in its unfolding effort to give complete organic expression of itself in external manifestation. Hence the time involved in the unfolding of his being and the bringing forth of his latent spiritual power to complete external expression, depends entirely upon the man himself. First, upon his recognition of this inward spiritual life and its possibilities, and then his intelligent co - operation therewith. This cc-operation consists in the perfect adjustment of the outward man to the requirements of the inward life.
