Chapter 20:

Only Spirit Mattereth

<< Previous | Home | Next >>

1. AND NOW, my beloved, I speak unto your intellects: I take you with me into wisdoms: I give you a shepherding into sheepfolds of mysteries. . . .

2. Men have asked, What is Size? what is Time? what is Space? harken to my logic, I bequeath you a reasoning:

3. Know that the Father's universe escheweth that called Size, Size hath a quality of measurement by comparison: that which is great seemeth large to the earthly;

4. Know that the Father thinketh only in Time, Space, my beloved, is Thought's elevation;

5. Space transcendeth Size, yet I say it cometh not alike to all created orders.

6. Ye do perceive that ye are men, that your stature hath a smallness; what is that stature that it confineth you to smallness? would your profit be greater if ye stood high as mountains?

7. Know that ye are greater than mountains in that ye have power to manifest in Thought, verily it beareth you out among the planets: ye do know the far stars: ye do know them for their shinings.

8. Think ye, beloved, other species have such power? I say that they have not, therefore are ye greater than size making mountains.

9. Size is ever relative; man is supernal in that he hath Thought; other orders come thinking, but not as man.

10. Men say, We think, therefore we are.

11. I say, ye are, therefore ye think.

12. Ye ascend unto visions: ye have concepts of Reality; they who come of other orders ascend to no such visions; their concepts are instincts.

13. Great minds are greater than great mountains: great worlds are lesser than great truths: man knoweth himself, thereof is his divinity.

14. I say unto you, Man hath concept of himself: he maketh mysteries in his thinking: he saith, We know of the stars, whereof they have brilliance; thereby is he greater than the stars, having knowledge of their essence.

15. He that thinketh greatly ever surpasseth that which he thinketh.

16. The Father thinketh in terms of that which cometh to pass: thereof is Spirit manifest.

17. What mattereth it if substance be a pebble or substance be a mountain? is not the mountain made of many pebbles? what mattereth many pebbles? is not the pebble the mystery in itself? are not the suns composed of many mountains in that they have substance of which the pebble cometh?

18. Only Spirit mattereth.

19. That which is perceived is like unto a mustard seed; mayhap it sprouteth, mayhap it blossometh; is not the blossoming more transcendent than the blossom?

20. Ye do breathe, and move, and have your mortal beings; therein are ye mortal; behold Spirit functioneth and Thought goeth out; it maketh you to see worlds in new bornings.

21. Are ye not a part of them, in that ye discern them?

22. Sight hath a transcendence to encompass its creatings; it becometh the particle of that which it perceiveth.

23. I say unto you, Look, Perceive, Witness, Discern. Lift your faces up; behold, the mirrors of the infinite are but lodestones for your intellects.

24. Ye do dwell on earth a little while; presently ye go forward, verily ye go upward; he who goeth upward seeth that which is beneath him; behold is it not true that he who journeyeth upward ever seeth life in more smallness beneath him?

25. Think on these things.

26. The Father dwelleth in heavenly mansions; He looketh on all creatings; He ariseth in the mornings and beholdeth many mountains; He saith to the mountains: Increase and bring forth young;

27. Lo, are they moved and universes shudder.

28. I tell you, man is part of it; but only is he part of it in that he seeth the Father deploying in himself.

29. I speak these things to you that ye may be wise.

30. Be not cast down by little men who say, Spirit is conjecture, we breathe, thereby we are. . . .

31. They are as lights in many wicks that presently know a snuffing; the universe snuffeth them; they cannot encompass it.

32. Lift up your heads, beloved! perceive a great radiance! the Spirit worketh in you, and I in it; behold we are one essence: that which is created cometh of my bosom. . . .
