and even when the continuity is speeded up, the mortal is still bound by his sense of Time, and the only available instruments left at his disposal are Faith and Patience; and I am come to counsel PATIENCE. Capitalize that word. If the mortal, unwilling to exercise patience, tries to speed the continuity beyond his receptive capacity, he will be overwhelmed by events. Nor can we, on higher realms, present events in a rhythm beyond a mortal’s strength without incurring grave responsibility.

Let me tell you why these times bear down so hard in certain places that one would consider the most immune.

The ordinary mortal, living the life of self, but in tune with the evolution of the race, has a mind capable of caring for his organism under the problems that confront him in Time and Space. But let him be set aflame by the fire of universal, impersonal Love, and under its spell abandon the little self, what happens? He takes on the larger body, the body of Humanity, and his little mind, trained to function only in Space and Time seems to himself utterly inadequate to deal with a body operating in dimensions of which perhaps he has never heard. He may turn to the philosophers and the mathematicians and try to lump the whole problem under the term Relativity, as though that were the answer. The questions that face him are not questions of Space and Time at all, they are not problems of orderly location, or of orderly continuity, they are the underlying Truths of Universality and Eternality. His yardsticks of the there and yonder are quickly lost in a changeless Here, and no form of accustomed or unaccustomed continuity can bring order out of what appears to him but endless chaos. Einstein and others render a wonderful service in enabling the human mind to grasp its own deficiencies, but for the moment such authorities
