be- seen. but one inferred that l.
might be- felt,

ON the basis OF God, man and the
universe as spirit spiritual, and love
as its manii"station-p"IfcCt and har-

Perhaps this exposition is not jus!
exactly as it should be. but from a
laymans point Of view 1t represents
the incomprencnsiblc mixture of
