Knowledge and Victory

He is a Teacher, though he speak but little; he is a Master, yet he has no desire to rule others; he is a Conqueror, but makes no attempt to subdue his fellow-men. He has become a conscious instrument for the outworking of cosmic law, and is an intelligent, enlightened power directing the evolution of the Race.

At this, the beginning of a new epoch, let the Good News again go forth throughout the world that there is purity for the sinful, comfort for the afflicted, healing for the broken-hearted, and triumph for the defeated. In your heart, O man! stained as it is with sin, and torn with conflicting desires, there is a place of power, a citadel of strength: you are the dwelling-place of the Supreme Good, and the Sceptre of Victory awaits you: deep in your consciousness is the High Seat of Empire. Arise, O stricken one! ascend your kingly throne.
