Any thought taken into the Silence that is not born of Love is weakness and writes that weakness in all your expression. Therefore when you love, you fulfill all Law. This is the Law and the Prophets: Do, unto others as you would that they shall do unto you! You wish all to act to you in Love of the Beautiful and the Good. By taking thoughts born of these loves into the Silence, by concentrating upon them you prove your love for yourself, and in that love you will love others.

Richard Realf, the poet, wished written on his tomb:

"He loved his friends, their love was sweet!"

And Leigh Hunt has for his epitaph:-

"Write me as one who loved his fellowmen!"

Such lives are successes, no matter if the grave covers much that we call error and failure. Soul Unfoldment is at last the standard. Success is attained in perfection only when we come into the Realization that we are one with Infinity. One example remains for us."I and my Father are one!" This is Loves completeness. This is, as far as earth is concerned-Perfect Success.

When Man shall thus concentrate in Love, then shall be fulfilled the prophecy of Henry Bernard Carpenter:

Man shall not ask his brother any more
"Believest thou but Lovest thou?" till all
Shall answer at God's altar, "Lord I love!"
For Hope may anchor, Faith may steer, but Love,
Great Love alone, is Captain of the Soul.
