110 THE POWER OF KARMA human senses as regards the perception of vibrations, it is instructive to study the most recent tables giving the spectrum of ether vibrations, as already ascertained and measured by scientific methods. They afford a most suggestive and impressive revelation of the magnitude and range of the ultra-physical universe. The insignificance of the human being, and of his capacity as a unit in a scheme of illimitable extension overwhelms the inquirer into the wonders of creation. He is compelled to exclaim with the Psalmist: "Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law." Knowledge, as it increases, must ever lead towards reverence and humility. The power conferred by knowledge is an appreciation of relative values, enabling us to attach importance to that which is in accord with the "laws of God”, so far as they are ascertainable.
Dr. James Kendall, F.R.S., in his work, "At Home Among the Atoms”, has made it clear that as a matter of fact we do not know yet what light waves consist of. They are merely, as Lord Kelvin said, “The nominative of the verb to undulate." According to the Schrodinger theory, the nearest we can come to defining an atom is to call it "an aura surrounding a cavity".
