Between Matter and Spirit...

Remembering your self is virtue, forgetting your
self is sin. It all boils down to the mental
or psychological link between the spirit and
matter. We may call the link psyche (antahkarana).
When the psyche is raw, undeveloped, quite primitive,
it is subject to gross illusions. As it grows in
breadth and sensitivity, it becomes a perfect link
between pure matter and pure spirit and gives meaning
to matter and expression to spirit.
