<h2><SPAN name="page161"></SPAN><span class="pagenum"></span>KNOWLEDGE</h2>
<p class="poetry">Would you believe in Presences Unseen—<br/>
In life beyond this earthly life?<br/>
BE STILL: Be stiller yet; and listen. Set the screen<br/>
Of silence at the portal of your will.<br/>
Relax, and let the world go by unheard.<br/>
And seal your lips with some all-sacred word.</p>
<p class="poetry">Breathe ‘God,’ in any
tongue—it means the same;<br/>
LOVE ABSOLUTE: Think, feel, absorb the thought;<br/>
Shut out all else; until a subtle flame<br/>
(A spark from God’s creative centre caught)<br/>
Shall permeate your being, and shall glow,<br/>
Increasing in its splendour, till, YOU KNOW.</p>
<p class="poetry"><SPAN name="page162"></SPAN><span class="pagenum">p.
162</span>Not in a moment, or an hour, or day<br/>
The knowledge comes; the power is far too great,<br/>
To win in any desultory way.<br/>
No soul is worthy till it learns to wait.<br/>
Day after day be patient, then, oh, soul;<br/>
Month after month—till, lo! the goal! the goal!</p>
