Life is as positive electricity, substance negative. Life is dynamic, substance static. Life is activity or spirit, and substance form or matter. Life is the father and begets, substance is the mother and conceives. In addition to these two aspects of life and substance, there is still a third.
Life is theoretical or potential activity, and needs a field of operation.
Substance furnishes this and in the union of life and substance, there flames forth active energy. All that is seen, from the tiniest grain of sand to the widest sweep of starry heaven, from an African savage to a Buddha or a Christ, all are outgrowths of energy. All rights reserved.
