yourself
as a child of your age. See how part
contributes to part all through
life. See mind and matter working together, man and woman, democrat and
republican, nation and nation, race and race. Live in thought with the whole of the great organism, expand your being to joyful oneness
with it all.
In practical life this organic
philosophy is the opposite of asceticism and the condemnation of a
part of life as mere appearance or evil. It points to the fitness of
things, the goodness of every- thing in proper relations. It inspires enjoyment
in nature as well as happiness in inner contemplation. One does
not take less but more pleasure in being with people, more delight in all
phases of life. There is a sense of freedom that the old bondage is thrown
off, that one can now enjoy the present life for its own sake. Even materialism
has its lesson. The materialism of the day is in a
sense the delight of man in the resources of the earth. These he could
not enjoy while matter was under pious condemnation. Nature may now be
freely studied as a part of the great revelation of God. Man need fear
nothing. There is nothing to run away from. Cowardice is now out of fashion
(asceticism was cowardice). We now propose to face the whole of life, pursue
it through to the end and find all there is in it, and all for the glory
of God.
