Excerpt from Art as a Factor in the Soul's Evolution With this old and yet ever new synthesis of life's activities to guide his vision, man looks on the universe with new eyes he holds in his hands the key to the riddle of the universe, and even if when veil after veil is lifted there must be veil upon veil behind, yet each raismg of a veil will only add glory to his vision. With the first true glance into the real meaning of life that comes with the study of Theosophy in its modern presentation, three facts will ever stand insistent before the consciousness of man. Of these the first is that everywhere in the universe, at every conceivable pomt in space, and yet outside it all, there is a Consciousness, the expression of whose Will is the universe visible-and invisible. Call it by what name we will, the fact is the same; God, Absolute Spirit, Divine Law - these are merely so many different ways of conceiving this truth. We may regard God, the one Consciousness behind all things, with many a philosopher as Pure Being, or as the Eternally Holy from the standpoint of religion; it will be the aim of this paper to point out the significance of yet another aspect as the Infinitely Beautiful. It is this aspect that the divine Plato revealed to the world; and the few in Persia and India that follow the mystical philosophy of the Sufis still attest to this day that it has not been altogether for gotten.
