What remedy did the teachers of humanity find at last? They discovered that in the depths of man was the universe itself, that man was a miniature in himself. And when we look at it more closely by throwing a spiritual light upon this question, we shall find that the entire mineral kingdom, rock, stone, diamond, or ruby, is all to be found in man.

  • There is a kind of man who is just like a rock.
  • There is the heart of man which is like a diamond, and there is the heart which is just like a ruby.
  • The more you study this the more you will realize that everything that is to be found in the mineral kingdom you can also find in the mind of man.
  • You will find the fire of sulfur in man's mentality, and
  • you will find the resonance of the metal of the gong or bell in the heart of man.
  • You will find the quality of sandalwood in the character of man, and
  • you will find the value of the pearl in his intelligence.
  • Fruit and flower, everything there is in the world, all is to be found in a man's character.
And chemically speaking you will even find that in the body of man the essence of all things is to be found.
