Daily meditation, Feb. 22nd:James Allen

He who ceases to be passion’s slave becomes a master-builder in the Temple of Destiny.

FEBRUARY TWENTY - SECOND

A MAN commences to develop power when, checking his impulses and selfish inclinations, he falls back upon the higher and calmer consciousness within him, and begins to steady himself upon a principle.

The realisation of unchanging principles in consciousness is at once the source and secret of the highest power.

When, after much searching, and suffering, and sacrificing, the light of an eternal principle dawns upon the soul, a divine calm ensues and joy unspeakable gladdens the heart.

He who has realised such a principle ceases to wander, and remains poised and self-possessed.

Only that work endures that is built upon an indestructible principle.
