THE MIGHT OF MEEKNESS
123

As thou becomest meek, thou shalt learn the deeper secrets of the universe. Nothing is hidden from him who overcometh himself. Into the cause of causes shalt thou penetrate, and lifting, one after another, every veil of illusion, shalt reach at last the inmost Heart of Being. Thus becoming one with Life, thou shalt know all life, and, seeing into causes, and knowing realities, thou shalt be no more anxious about thyself and others and the world, but shalt see that all things that are are engines of the Great Law. Canopied with gentleness, thou shalt bless and never curse, love and never hate, forgive and never condemn, yield where others strive, give up where others grasp, lose where others gain. And in their strength they shall be weak; and in thy weakness thou shalt be strong; yea, thou shalt mightily prevail. He that hath not unbroken gentleness hath not Truth:

“Therefore when Heaven would save a man, it enfolds him
          with gentleness.”
