The Religions of India

CHAPTER X
21/83

But the highest class, they that wish to emancipate themselves at once, know that physical life is but a form of spiritual life; that the personal creator is but a form of the Spirit; that the Spirit is absolute _brahma_; and that in reaching this they attain to immortality.

These, then, are to meditate on spirit as the highest Spirit, that is, the absolute.

To fear heaven as much as hell, to know that knowledge is, after all, the key to _brahma_; that _brahma_ is knowledge; this is the way to emancipation.

The gods are; but they are forms of the ego, and their heaven is mortal.

It is false to deny the gods.
