is
no reason for saying that the universe is merely an affair of thought.
Man is far more than a thinker. God is infinitely more than the idea of
God. Life is real, life is earnest, it is substantial. God is power. Man
is an active being. The universe is a theatre of forces. Thoughts come
and go, but deeds
abide. Thought is reflective, imitative, secondary; it interprets, seeks
to understand. It is power, life, that is primary--when force
meets force, and life meets life. Only by thinking can one understand.
But only by doing may one accomplish. Hence thought must not forget what
it sought to understand. Man must not forget to refer back to experience
and test theory by practice. It is on the level of power that one comes
into relation with the immanent Life. It is that Life, together with our
reactions upon it, that has made us what we are. Therefore, since "conduct
is three-fourths of life," it is by wiser conduct that one at last
solves the problem of suffering.
