'Man seeks individualism because he seeks self-consciousness, but later he learns that the way to God-consciousness is through the group. You think of yourselves as individuals, as monads, because you are learning expression on the outer plane; but, my brethren, you have yet to learn that you are part of a group. You, the individual, we liken to the proton, and around you circulate the electrons.
You must open your consciousness to this divine cosmic reality. You are nothing. Of yourselves you can do nothing. You cannot live alone. You have many selves, many personalities. You belong to your group, and your group belongs to many other groups, which form a community: and that community belongs to many other communities which form a sphere, and so on and on.
Every man or woman who thinks that he or she is separate and lives with this thought of self-life is living in darkness. Humanity is learning by the hard way this truth of group life, of brotherhood, of co-operation, and expansion of the little consciousness into the God-consciousness. The only way you can realise this is through pure love.
Look up into the heavens and see this truth demonstrated in the myriad stars...
I am nothing...
Yet I am all, when I recognise all.'
This was the passage I opened up first to read to my mother 24 hours before she died. I read to her half of the Meditation book by White Eagle during her last hours. I believe these words brought her great comfort. For me, they are the truest words I've ever read. I hope you enjoy them as much as I cherish them.
