' One Spirit '...

If we say that there are many souls, it is true, just as there are many waves or many rays of the sun; but if we say there is one spirit,

it is truer still, just as there is one sea and one sun.

The waves are an action of the sea, the rays are a manifestation of the sun, the souls are a phenomenon of the spirit.

They are and they are not.

They are because we see them, and they are not because there is only one Being.
