Would you believe in Presences Unseen -
In life beyond this earthly life? BE STILL: Be stiller yet; and listen. Set the screen
Of silence at the portal of your will. Relax, and let the world go by unheard.
And seal your lips with some all-sacred word.
Breathe 'God,' in any tongue--it means the same;
LOVE ABSOLUTE: Think, feel, absorb the thought; Shut out all else; until a subtle flame
(A spark from God's creative centre caught) Shall permeate your being, and shall glow, Increasing in its splendour, till, YOU KNOW.
Not in a moment, or an hour, or day
The knowledge comes; the power is far too great, To win in any desultory way.
No soul is worthy till it learns to wait. Day after day be patient, then, oh, soul; Month after month--till, lo! the goal! the goal!
