' A polished mirror '...


Because the Overself is already there within him in all its immutable sublimity, man has not to develop it or perfect it.

He has only to develop and perfect his ego until it becomes like a polished mirror,

held up to and reflecting the sacred attributes of the Overself,

and showing openly forth the divine qualities which had hitherto lain hidden behind itself.
