interfere with the progress of these Illuminati; limitation is unknown to them. They simply absorb or dissolve the puny human laws which bind and hold the ordinary race man by meeting them with a perception which finds the higher laws.
With the higher laws of life they enter naturally into a new order of possession so great, so limitless, so free, that it can only be called divine:
“They come to grief and bid it pass to joy,
Their touch unbinds the blinding bands of pain;
The soul finds happiness without alloy,
They turn all seeming loss to greater gain.”
This is the fulfillment of the promises, and by their deliberate appeal to the power of higher knowing and their unchanging response to higher discipline they command and accomplish all.
The plus man does not separate himself from his kind; he is only more closely identified with everything. His exiled human heart has only lost its life on a lower plane to find it on new levels of living. He is now at home on the bosom of reality; he can speak from the wisdom of the all, merged in the all, the parts made perfect in the whole.
The true growth of the human soul is painless, and, knowing this, he turns his transcendental consciousness upon his flesh and heals it. Purified by his long fast, the cell consciousness of his body accepts the new invitation to peace and freedom. Every cell intelligence awakens to the new call, and night and day, works out triumphantly, the plus body.
