+FOR LONG years a pilgrim had traveled over many roads, through smiling, open country, over dangerous mountain paths into verdant, contented valleys, through bleak and cheerless desert lands; and always he had been seeking, seeking—he knew not what. Sometimes he seemed to have found what he sought in a life of pleasure, or in a beloved companionship, or in an inspiring personality who pointed him to new countries; only to be cast again with discouragement, disillusionment, unhappiness.
+Now, travel-stained, weary in mind and body, discouraged by all the years of seemingly fruitless searching, he had ascended a high hill, hoping that he might from its summit see that which he sought. But all that met his hopeless gaze were clouds of grey mist.
+In anguished tones he cried aloud, “Oh, thou great Creator, reveal Thyself to me; reveal to me Why this fruitless journey throughout the years; show me now a new path that I may find my heart’s desire!”
+As he waited there, humbled and receptive, he heard a voice and looking up beheld a glorious and shining Presence. “Oh soul, who journeys on, behold, I AM the Christ!” were His words.
+“You speak of Jesus of Nazareth, He who ascended into the Heavens?” he hesitatingly but eagerly questioned.
+“Nay, I speak of the Christ of whom Jesus spoke, when He said, ‘I AM the Way, the Truth, and the Life. I AM the Christ in thee—thy Higher Self, thy Life, the Light which lighteth thee. Acknowledge Me in all thy ways and I will reveal to thee the Kingdom for which thou seekest. Behold!”
+He pointed to a bank of white clouds which as He spoke lifted, and there the pilgrim beheld a land of mystical beauty, great vistas of green covered hills, bedecked with gorgeous flowers, splendid palaces, pilgrims robed in spotless white, singing anthems of praise and thanksgiving.
