I ask him in the name of faith between man and man; in the name of those unfortunates, who, for no worse fault than their aspiration to the Hidden Wisdom, have been and still are being befooled and betrayed and robbed by his colleague under the zgis of the respectability of his own name; and in the Name of Him, who, planning the Universe, employed the Plumb-line, the Level, and the Square. * * * * * Sweets to the sweet—and her…

Who knows But that this corpse committed to the earth May be the occasion of some happier birt…

…hat “WE see.” Yet nevertheless we renounce this as being absurd, or not renouncing it, at least do not live up to our assertion; for, we name that which is a reality to a child, and a deceit or illusion to a man, an apparition or a shadow.

…SA GURU SWAMIJI is a certain Punjabi lala, who, on account of his tremendous voice and ferocious temper, has well earned for himself the name of The Tiger Mahatma. My first acquaintance with His Holiness was in November 1906, when he paid his second visit to England. I had seen his name in the daily press, but before calling upon him, I had read up what I could about him in his book: “Sri Brahma Dhara,” in the preface of which he is praised as follows: “He seeks to do good, he accepts money from no one, and lives a very simple, pure life . . . …

Therefore to-day, when anyone is summoned, he answers first ‘It is 1’; and then only he names the other name which he bears.”+ This Consciousness of “I” is the second veil which man meets on his upward journey, and, unless he avoid it and escape from its hidden meshes, which are a thousandfold more dangerous than the entanglements of the veil of words, he will never arrive at that higher consciousness,…
