REINCARNATION/PART 10
A LAST WORD
And here must end this imperfect treatment of a theme
too vast and too deep for pen feeble as mine. This sketch can but serve as
elementary introduction to a study of one of the weightiest problems of human existence,
a study more vital, perchance, to our present stage of civilisation than any
other in which the mind of man can engage. All life changes its aspect when
reincarnation becomes a deeply settled conviction, beyond all argument, raised
above all dispute. Each day of life but one page in the great drama of
existence; each sorrow but the fleeting shadow cast by a passing cloud; each
joy but a gleam of sunshine reflected from a swinging mirror; each death but
the moving from a worn-out house. The strength of an eternal youth begins
slowly to pass into the awakening life; the calmness of a vast serenity broods
over the tossing waves of human thought; the radiant glory of the immortal
Intelligence pierces the thick dusky clouds of matter, and the imperishable
Peace that nought can ruffle sheds its pure whiteness over the triumphant
spirit. Pinnacle after pinnacle of spiritual heights lift themselves into the
illimitable ether, steps which climb the azure immeasurable, and fade into the infinite distance which shrouds the Future, immense
and unimaginable by the very spirit in man. And then, "blinded by the
excess of light," wrapped in a hope too deep to be joyous, too sure to be
triumphant, too vast to be syllabled, Man entres into the All-consciousness to
which our consciousness is as senselessness, till Eternity again thrills with
the summons: COME FORTH, FOR THE DAY OF BRAHMA is DAWNING AND THE NEW WHEEL BEGINS
TO TURN!
PEACE TO ALL BEINGS
