A spiritualist must begin by realising unity within …
A spiritualist must begin by realising unity within himself: unity in his thoughts, his feelings, and his actions. There is a story about a mole, an eagle, and a fish who became partners in an effort to transport a heavy load together. But what happened? The eagle flapped its wings to take flight, the fish wanted to dive into the water, and the mole tried to go underground. Obviously, pulled in these different directions, the load remained where it was! Well, this is what happens to the majority of human beings: we might say that within them there is a mole, an eagle, and a fish, all forever pulling in opposite directions. When our thoughts, our feelings, and our actions are harmonised and directed towards a high ideal, when there is no longer any opposition between them, then, and only then, can we consider that we are on the path of true spirituality.
