PHILOSOPHICAL NOTES.
The Man Himself.

All this concerning the vestures of
the real man, may seem somewhat
confusing, and the reader is ready to
ask: what have | left? The as
trail vehicle, of the desire nature, is
not myself, the mental vehicle, with
which think with its physical or
gan. the brain, Is not myself. What
in reality am II"
The true nan is an emanation
from the Logos Himself, or, AS Mr..
Leadbeater puts it: He is a spark of
tho Divine fire" The spirit within
man is "of the very essence OF the
Deity This "essence of the Deity"
this spirit within man. wears the
soul as a vesture. This vesture,
which is called the soul, seems 10
separate this spark of the Divine
Life for a time from tn. rest of the
Great Divine Life, which pervades
the whole universe. 1t individual
izes it, and the man is "A working cen
ter, because of this soul which in.
closes him.
This Divine Spark, which is the
real man. has within it the three as.
pects Of the Divine Life: Will, Wis
dom, and Activity. Mr.. Leadbeater
says: Thus the baby soul is born,
and just as it is made in the image
of God three-fold i'll aspect, as He
is, aud three-fold i'll manifestation,
rs He is also. So is its method of
evolution a reflection of His descent
into matter. The manifestation of
the universe has been called the "ln-
c%arnation' by g letter word
than the word Creation" commonly
used 10y Christians the world over.
God manifest in matter expresses the
main idea in the great scheme Of so
called creation.
This Divine Spark contains within
it the potentrality of Divinity itself,
but ages of evolution must pass be-
fore all its possibilities can be fully
realized.
The method of this evolution is by
gaining the power of response TO vi
brations from without. Slowly, as
the ages roll, this power of response
is evolved, and the man learns self
knowledge, because he knows all
others. He knows nothing only by
means of these vibrations, which
come to him Consciousness tex.

nitely goes to work to hasten the
great work.
As steadily as vibrations have come
to him from without SO steadily he
learns to initiate effort from within.
How few realize what it is to de
liberately start their own actions in
any matter, How few of us ever
have a thought of our own. II a

Do you appreciate AS you should

household-your wife or your mother7
With what infinite patience does she

ten or twenty or perhaps fifty years
she has gone about her daily duties
with u merry heart and t~ireless hand.
How monotonous and irksome those
duties would have become long
ere this if love had not light
ened the labor. Over and over
again these cycles of time she has
completed the circle Of these never
ending home sweeping, dust
ing, cooking, table setting, dish
washing, sewing, mending, not to
mention the even more exacting du-
ties of motherhood, So cheerfully
and uncomplainingly has she per
formed these daily duties that they

you, and you are apparently as un-
grateful for them as you are for the

and devotion to any one i'll all tins

that sweet, patient, loving wife or

how mean, when an a%ppreciative
word would help pay the debt to
withhold SO simple a recognition of
her priceless services. Oh, say the

perfect sympathy and compassion, he
will respond to all vibrations.
The real man when he reaches this
stage is the developed man., the

Christ. To become this he must de
vslope within him all the qualities
which go to make the perfect man
the real work of his long life in
