 Among thousands of men scarce one striveth for perfection; of the successful strivers scarce one knoweth Me in essence.

Earth, water, fire, air, ether, Mind, and Reason also and Egoism —these are the eightfold division of My nature.

This the inferior. Know My other nature, the higher, the life-element, O mighty-armed, by which the universe is upheld.
