“Suppose that thou hast detached thyself from the natural unity... yet here there is this beautiful provision, that it is in thy power again to unite thyself. God has allowed this to no other part, after it has been separated and cut asunder, to come together again. ...he has distinguished man, for he has put it in his power not to be separated at all from the universal ...he has allowed him to be returned and to be united and to resume his place as a part.” MenHas BeensTogetherBeautifulNaturalUnitedCuttingUniversalUnityThyselfDistinguishedProvisionDetachedResumesTogether Again Author:Marcus Aurelius
“Our time has been distinguished, more than by anything else, by a mastery, a control, of the external world, and by an almost total forgetfulness of the internal world. If one estimates human evolution from the point of view of knowledge of the external world, then we are in many respects progressing. If our estimate is from the point of view of the internal world, and of oneness of internal and external, then the judgment must be very different.” IfsWorldHumansHas BeensDifferentViewsProgressEvolutionJudgmentPoint Of ViewOnenessOur TimeInternalsMasteryDistinguishedForgetfulnessHuman Evolution Author:R.
