YOU ARE THE SAGE I WORSHIP, O YOU COMMON MAN !
Do not cower before a monk, however mighty spiritually ; do not shake in fear or in abject self-degradation in paying your reverence to the holy one. Never for a moment forget that it is your own spiritual insight that lends him all his holiness and nothing beyond it. It is your godhead that confers godhead on the seminal personality before whom you stoop in humble prostration, recognising godhead in him. Ever remember that you are the source, course, estuary of the river of spirituality which you behold through ignorance outside of you. You may right now be unaware, so to say, of it but you are secretly yet aware of it, for nothing subsists in phenomena outside the fold of your infinite consciousness.
Knowing this for certain, arise in the awareness of your own divinity and stop belittling your own self by paying humble reverences to the spiritual ones in a manner that offends your native self-esteem and strikes at the base of your own self-consciousness as a soul. This giant of a spiritual being you see outside of yourself, so to say, is your own shadow, the early projection of your own future manifested self, your potential spiritual state of this day, your status future without a shadow of doubt. So, stop abasement of yourself and start reverencing your own Self and in such mighty Self-culture, arise O spiritual giants of the morrow.
