Intuition and Science

"...incarnated within each one of us is not only a divine spark, not only an incarnation of the living Spirit of the Cosmos, but a unique presentation of the Cosmic Whole, if we can judge the unknown by the known.  We have nothing to disprove and everything to prove that this individuation of the Spirit in each one of us, rooted in common soil, having the characteristics and potentialities of its common background, contains what the ancients called the microcosm.

We have every reason to suppose that there is, back of and within and around every individual, the Divine representation of himself as the Son of God, forever expanding.  The Universe is alive and awake and aware.  It's an interesting thing that all the great intuitions of the ages are gradually being verified by the investigations of modern science.  The nature of the physical universe has been known intuitively from time immemorial; bu that which anciently was conceived by intuition, which went in the front door of Spirit by a natural and logical affinity, is, in our day and generation, gradually being reproven by the inductive method of science, which goes in the back door of Spirit, but which, when it gets into the living room, sees the dame furniture."

~ Ernest Holmes
