The great body of the world may be properly called a whole, on account of the perpetuity of its duration though it is nothing more than a flowing eternity. Spirituality actually means that the individual lives or exists upon the level of his spiritual nature or is possessed by the divinity within him One should not think of philosophy as an abstract science of the ancients, but as an ever practical guide to the daily decisions of life. Each individual must have some kind of standard within himself to inspire toward realization of the One, the doing of the beautiful, and the achievement of the Good. The difference between religion and philosophy is that religion is satisfied to worship, philosophy seeks to understand. Religions are paths to the heart, philosophies paths of the minds.
Emotion is the dominant factor in religion but plays a small part in philosophy.
The finite may not know the infinite, but may move toward it. Ethics may be defined as that branch of philosophy which applies the great truths of life to the social relationships of the individual. Philosophy may be defined as the perfect science, the science of perfection. The world of God and the world of man are not separated by any distance other than the interval of understanding. Thinking is not merely an exercise of the mind, it is a directing of the mind.
