TILL EACH ONE BECOMES A SECT UNTO ONESELF




TILL EACH ONE BECOMES A SECT UNTO ONESELF


What is the world but a federation of individuals, each unto his own perspective within a commonality of societal living, each a whirlpool of love and light, billowy beams streaming from the heavens, each a pulse of breath in a sea of ceaseless life? It is the vantage point that sees; it is the radial line that evolves; it is the harmony of the One and the Many in the cosmic scheme of things. The 'music of the spheres' is the 'song celestial', the macrocosm and the microcosm beating to the same tune, singing to the same beat in a pulsating variety of harmonies and rhythms. The one must not be lost amidst the many even as the One must be discovered within the Many as the focus of variation, as the underlying principle that holds it all. That One this one is, that One you are. So, never forget your debt to yourself. You owe it to yourself to discover yourself and what better way to do so than to form a sect out of yourself where the worshipper you are and the worshipped you are in a growing discovery of the oneness of things? Such a sect will never be proselytising; such a sect will never be fanatical; such a sect will never be violent in act or intent; such a sect will ever be the promoter of peace. Such a sect you are. Now realise it.
