ESOTERIC CHRISTIANITY/PART 15
AFTERWORD.
We have reached the end of a
small book on a great subject, and have only lifted a corner of the Veil that
hides the Virgin of Eternal Truth from the careless eyes of men. The hem of her
garment only has been seen, heavy with gold, richly dight with pearls. Yet even
this, as it waves slowly, breathes out celestial fragrances—the sandal and
rose-attar of fairer worlds than ours. What should be the unimaginable glory,
if the Veil were lifted, and we saw the splendour of the Face of the divine
Mother, and in Her arms the Child who is the very Truth? Before that Child the
Seraphim ever veil their faces; who then of mortal birth may look on Him and
live?
Yet since in man abides His very
Self, who shall forbid him to pass within the Veil, and to see with "open
face the glory of the Lord"? From the Cave to highest Heaven; such
was the pathway of the Word made Flesh, and known as the Way of the Cross.
Those who share the manhood share also the Divinity, and may tread where He has
trodden. "What Thou art, That am I."
Peace to
all Beings
END OF THIS BOOK.
