Rh states of regenerative experience of which we have dim visions but have not reached as yet.

And so we see how beautifully the parable of the creation, when viewed in its inward meaning, sets forth the regeneration of the human soul. In the very consideration of its symbols, and in the explanations and illustrations which necessarily connect themselves therewith, we are developing the true philosophy of the spiritual new birth, and are learning to place that most interesting subject on its true basis. We are gaining, not human opinions which may or may not be true, but the absolute inwardness of revelations, which, because they are divine, are truth itself.
