Infinity
Book I
1930
We give the book Infinity.
Is it worth while to speak of Infinity if it is unattainable?
But it does exist; and everything great, even if invisible, compels us to think about the
ways to it. Thus, even now let us ponder about the ways into Infinity; for it exists, and
it is terrifying if it is not cognized. But even in the earthly life one can approach and
can temper the spirit toward acceptance of the unfathomable.
A great deal remains unknown to us, yet we do overcome our
ignorance. Thus, even if we do not understand the meaning of Infinity, we are able to
realize it as something unavoidable and therefore meriting special attention. How else
may we temper into commensurateness our thoughts and actions? Verily, by comparison with
Infinity we realize the scope of our grievances and triumphs.
Hence, the levels of thinking in many countries should be
stabilized just now, since the reminder about Infinity is especially important when
arguments over falsehoods are taking place.
Therefore, we shall offer the radiance of the rays of
Infinity, into which there is carried not only the spirit but even stones, in a blending,
as it were, of loftiest creation with grossest matter. But in the whirlwind of Eternity
the stone and the spirit are imponderable, for they are drawn into the same magnet.
The very realization of the magnet increases the attraction, focusing it upon
intensification of currents. These same vortices conquer space, and you do not know from
what spheres the indivisible electron--nucleus of Tamas and Teros--reaches you.
Ponder to what extent you can understand My language and
express it in your tongue. Similarly understand your reciprocative feelings and express
them in the language of your heart. This language of understanding and sympathy will
open the first Gates to Infinity.
