THE HERITAGE OF ARYAN PEOPLES 155 “The heart which abandons itself to the Supreme Mind finds itself related to all its works, and will travel a royal road to particular knowledges and powers. ... When we have broken our god of tradition, and ceased from our god of rhetoric, then may God fire the heart with His presence.”
Amongst those same mountain fastnesses of Thibet which witnessed the beginnings of human thought are those who, by centuries of study, experiment, and meditation, have probed the secrets of the life of man. Leaf by leaf they have turned the book of life, and the knowledge they have gained is this, that man on earth is possessed of an immortal principle which contacts other states of being beyond what the eye can see or the ear can hear. Is it a vain chimera to suggest that it is to that original cradle of the race we shall eventually retum for instruction in the things that are yet to come, the recognition of our universal brotherhood, the federation of the nations, and the reign of Love?
