We are well aware of the fact that man must learn to identify with man if life is to continue on this planet. He must be his brother’s keeper; and through identification with that which is real in self and society he must surrender his selfish desires if he is to continue to progress both spiritually and materially. But this man cannot do as long as he retains his carnality—his self-image as a man-animal through which he has functioned since his fall from the grace of the Christ Image. Therefore, if he would rid himself of his selfishness, he must rise from the plane of identification with animal life to claim his inheritance as a sinless, selfless son of God. Only then will he be able to expand his sphere of identity and through the power of divine love include the entire world in his Self-conscious awareness.

One of the great fallacies of our time is the projecting of mankind’s current imperfections on the white page of the future. If instead, through invocation to the sacred fire, mankind would transmute in the present the evil, or the energy veil, which Jesus said was sufficient unto the day, they would be given the resources to meet the challenges of the future. And their future’s problems would not be compounded by their failure to solve the problems of the present.
