Man's Comprehension of God and of Higher Worlds

To man, the Essence of God is incomprehensible, so also are the worlds

beyond this, and their condition. It is given to man to obtain knowledge,

to attain to great spiritual perfection, to discover hidden truths and to

manifest even the attributes of God; but still man cannot comprehend the

Essence of God. Where the ever-widening circle of man's knowledge meets

the spiritual world a Manifestation of God is sent to mirror forth His

splendour.
