When you desire to enter the mansion of God, you are confronted by two closed doors - the desire to praise yourself, and the desire to defame others. The doors are bolted by envy, and there is the huge lock of egoism preventing entry. If you are earnest, you have to resort to the key of love to open the lock, then remove the bolt and throw the doors wide open. Your education must train you in this difficult operation. You undergo training in many fields of study, but the crown and crest of all subjects of study is the training of the inner consciousness. The study of the soul, if mastered, is the key to all knowledge. It teaches us that if the soul is known, all else is known. It reveals to us that the One is in the many and that the many are really One.
