A man is a facade of a temple wherein all wisdom and all good abide.
What we call man - the eating, drinking, planting, counting man does not,
As we know him, represent himself, but misrepresents him.
If he would let it appear through his action, would make our knees bend.
When it breathes through his intellect, it is genius; when it breathes
Through his will, It is virtue; when it breathes through his affection,
It is love...we know that all spiritual Being is in man. A wise old proverb says
"God comes to see us without bell"; that is, as there is not screen or ceiling
Between our heads and the Infinite heavens, so is there no bar or wall
In the soul where man, the effect, ceases, and God, the cause, begins.
The walls are taken away. We lie open on one side to the deeps of Spiritual
Nature, to the attributes of God: justice we see and know, Love, Freedom, Power.
