Even as it performs its mission of enlightenment and sends out its principle of light and heat, and consequently life, so do each and all promulgate its beneficent example. There shines within each soul a light divine, that may transcend the beauty of the star which rules its destiny, and with its quickening glow, send out duration of live giving principles, that may creep into every cranny of darkness and of doubt, and by the law of transmutation change it to a bower of brightness and of love. Behold the sun in its splendor, as it gives forth the glowing shades of sundown; even so does the transcended light within, throw forth its many colored vibrations, through its agency, the aura. So may we all upon the canvas of life depict a picture of startling brilliancy and beauteous colorings." -- 490 pp.,
