The contemplation of this divinity excites the religious LITTLE 

 emotions of awe, veneration, wonder and 'worship. It JOURNEYS 

 is a world of correlation. The All is right here. There 

 is no outside force or energy no god or supreme be- 

 ing that looks on, interferes, dictates and decides. To 

 admitthere is an outside power, somethinguncorrelated, 

 is to invite fear, apprehension, uncertainty and terror. 

 This undissolved residuum is the nest-egg of super- 

 stition. The man who believes that God is the "Whole, 

 and that every man, is a necessary part of the Whole, 

 has no need to placate or please an intangible Some- 

 thing. All there is for him to do is to be true to his own 

 nature to live his life to understand himself. And 

 this takes us back to the Socratic maxim, "Know 

 Thyself." 



No man ever expressed one phase of Monism so 

 beautifully and well as Emerson has in his "Essay on 

 Compensation." This intelligence in \vhich we are 

 bathed rights every wrong, equalizes every injustice, 

 balances every perversion, punishes the wrong and 

 rewards the right. The Universe is self-lubricating 

 and automatic. 



The Greeks beheld the sublime truths of Compensa- 

 tion when they pictured Nemesis. It is absurd to pun- 

 ish leave it to Nemesis she never forgets nothing 

 can escape her. 



Our duties lie in service to ourselves, and we best 

 serve self by serving humanity. This is the only relig- 

 ion that pays compound interest to both borrower and 

 lender. Worship Humanity and you honor yourself.
