“Faith in the continuance and enhancement of the intrinsic values--faith in truth, in beauty, in friendship, in love and harmony of life--in short, faith in reason and the worth of spiritual life--such faith is only another name for faith in the persistence of spiritual individuality.

To have faith in the permanence of intrinsic values is to assume the enduring reality of selves who know truth, feel beauty, who love and win spiritual harmony.” KnowsFeelsRealSelfReasonRealitySpiritualValuesWinningNamesFunctionHarmonyAssumingEndureIndividualityDeedsPersistenceRepeatsHave FaithSpiritual LifePersonal ExperiencesPermanenceIntrinsic ValueEnhancementContinuance Author:Joseph Alexander Leighton
