Excerpt from A Theory of Spiritual Progress<br/><br/>Qll-low curious it is that those makers of myths who wrote the story of the genesis of life upon this earth set down light as the first created thing. Science has learned little more than this. The ceaseless ?ow and ebb of life upon the planet, is from light and air and earth and water and grass and animals to man, there in man to glow for a time as a divine light, and then to pass back, broken and spent, to light and earth and air and water and grass, again to resume the upward ?ow fr0m light to light. From inorganic matter toorganic, from organic matter to consciousness, from conscious ness to aspiration, from aspiration to endeavor, from endeavor to a tale that is told, dust to dust, ashes to ashes  so go the inter changing cycles. And all the wise men in the world are watching the journey of that mysterious thing called life, as it grows from chlorophyl into history. They are trying to find out what life is.
