Today's Thought Gem—July

The great circuit of life
is from the Father,
through sons to brothers,
and hence to the Supreme
Things are time conditioned,
but truth is timeless
Much of what a mortal would call
good luck might really be bad luck;
the smile of fortune that bestows
unearned leisure and undeserved wealth
may be the greatest of human afflictions…
…the apparent cruelty of a perverse fate
that heaps tribulation upon some suffering mortal
may in reality be the tempering fire
that is transmuting the soft iron of immature personality
into the tempered steel of real character
When a great truth seeker
and a great truth giver meet,
the result is a great and liberating
enlightenment born of the
experience of new truth
It is a marvelous and transforming experience
to become the living channel of spiritual light
to the mortal who sits in spiritual darkness
The true teacher
maintains his
intellectual integrity
by ever remaining
a learner
The sun rises every morning
to salute you just as it does
the most powerful and
prosperous man on earth
Why waste words
upon one who cannot
perceive the meaning
of what you say?
We gain knowledge from the experience
of man, but we derive wisdom from the
contemplation of the Most High
