The Inner Life
THE HERALD OF THE NEW AGE | MARCH 1934
Afraid? Of what?
To enter into Heaven’s rest,
And yet to serve the Master blest,
From service good to service best?
Afraid—of that?
Afraid? Of what?
To do by death what life could not—
Baptize with blood a stony plot,
Till souls shall blossom from the spot?
Afraid—of that?

NATURE
HELP Nature and work on with her; and Nature will regard thee as one of her creators and make obeisance.
And she will open wide before thee the portals of her secret chambers, lay bare before thy gaze the treasures hidden in the very depths of her pure virgin bosom. Unsullied by the hand of matter, she shows her treasures only to the eye of Spirit—the eye that never closes, the eye for which there is no veil in all her kingdoms.
—From The Voice of the Silence.
