untried experiences. Not until he has passed them has he sufficient data for correct conclusions.

Therefore man must have a better guide than reason, if he would avoid mistakes.

Man has instinctively recognized this and evolved a God to do his leading for him.

As each new experience is added to his stock of knowledge man has re-arranged his concept of God. His God is the product of his reason, and is small or great according to the premises he has to reason from.

In this way man at last has evolved the conception that God is the law inherent in each atom of the universe; the Law of Attraction by which we are held in form, or dissolved at the bidding of a stronger attraction, only to be again organized.

The Law must be our guide, and the enlightener of reason.

But how are we to know the mind of the Law, and recognize its leadings?

The Law is inherent in each atom of the universe, and in each organization of atoms. The Law manifest is the simple sensation we call Desire.

Desire is the voice of God. Desire is the Law of Attraction recognized.

Desire is the unreasoning and unerring cry of the ego --- every ego, from the original atom to the Christ man --- for that which is related to itself; for that which is a necessity in the process of unfoldment. The blade of grass desires the sap, without which it must die. The animal desires its prey. And each of these gratifies its desires, and unfolds normally and quickly.

But man refuses to gratify his desires, and consequently gets into all kinds of troubles --- i. e., new experiences.
