the love that moves the stars moves also the heart of man

The finite in man longs for the infinite. The love that moves the stars moves also the heart of man and a law of spiritual gravitation leads his soul to the soul of the universe. Man sees the sun by the light of the sun, and he sees the spirit by the light of his own inner spirit. The radiance of eternal beauty shines over this vast universe and in moments of contemplation we can see the Eternal in things that pass away. This is the message of the great spiritual seers; and all poetry and art and beauty is only an infinite variation of this message.
