Life and Death a Unity.

Life is state which follows upon
death. Death is q state which pre-
cedes life. Which Of us understands
the laws that govern their succession
The life of man is the resultant of
forces. The aggregation of these forces
Is life; their dispersion, death. IL,
then. life and death are but consecu-
tive states of existence, what cause
for sorrow have /?
And So il is that all things are but
phases of unity What men delight
in is the spiritual essence of life. What
they loathe is the material corruption
of death. But this state of corrup-
ton gives place to that state OF splr-
ituality and that state of spirituality
gives place i'm turn to this state or
corruption. Therefore we may say
that all in the universe is comprised
in unity: and therefore the inspired
among us have adopted unity as their
cri,erion.-H. A. Giles, in Translated
