BROTHERHOOD 93

one" means and the meaning of "I and my
Father are one ".

No ideal is too great to put before ourselves,
for only by following a great ideal may we
hope to attain, after many lives and aeons of ages.
It needs perseverance, it needs determination, it
needs the constant reminding of ourselves, I am
not here for myself^ but as a part of a great
whole. What I do affects all, what I attain
helps all, thus must I ever keep in mind that
I am one of God's family and united to all.

None the less has the dream, the hope, of an
enduring civilisation based on Brotherhood gilded,
from time to time, the horizon of the great Saints/
of the great Lovers of Humanity. Prophets have
pointed to it. Poets have sung of it. Philosophers
have outlined it. Martyrs have died for it; the
Elder Brothers of Humanity, the great Company of
the religious Teachers of the world, They shall
establish it, and the Spirit of Love in which each
religion has been cradled, shall brood over the
maturity of the Race.
