This then is the fundamental law of all man-management — to be, live and act from the summit of one’s consciousness. Even if we have glimpsed it for a brief movement in our lives, we must try to deal with others by relating and referring to that. Naturally this summit will be different for different people. Or, in a rare individual, two, three or more summits may sometimes be fused and harmonised in a truth from which all other truths derive. This happens in the background of a large impersonality and vast universality supporting the individual consciousness. For in the stillness of the mind, the ray of intuition can shine; in the calm and untroubled waters of our emotions, true feelings can reflect themselves; in a life untroubled by desires, the omnipotent’s will can decisively act; and a body plastic and well poised can radiate a beauty in every contact.
We may end as we started but with a more positive turn: we help the world become perfect in proportion to the degree we perfect ourselves. We make the potential in others manifest and become real by making it real in ourselves.
