Here, in fervent sincerity and truth, should man worship the Infinite Author of
his being! Away from the discords of the outer world, 'tis fitting that his soul
should commune with his Maker in His holiest Tabernaclethe great Temple of
Nature! With the calm, blue sky o'erarching his head, the vernal beauties of the
flowery kingdom shedding their balmy perfumes around, and the sweet,
harmonious warblings of the bright-plumed birds above, it is well that he should
here inspire the tender mercies and loving kindnesses of his God, seek
closer converse with Him, through these manifestations of His Grace, and attune
his heart to the plenary inspiration of Nature's Hymns!

Here, God is thy only True Templethy only Church Universal! Nature, with her
ten thousand voices, speaks thy everlasting praise and the benevolent soul
echoes her voiceful eloquence! From the tallest and most majestic tree of
the forest, down to the tiniest flower of the valley, we trace the Mighty Sermons
of Human Life, inscribed by thine Infinite Finger! Here should the immortal soul
imbibe the Harmonies of thy Paternal Nature, and prepare itself,
through interior communings with thy natural works, and a knowledge of
their beautiful laws, for that Higher Tabernacle beyond, in which angels chant
their songs of everlasting praises to thy Holy Name.

John Quincy Adams (In Spirit)

All things, dear Father, e'er declare

Thy wondrous goodness, love, and care

On Nature's brow, in every land,

Is traced the impress of thy Hand!

The murm'ring rills reflect thy Face,

The ocean speaks thy louder praise;

While the sweet songsters of the air

Resound thy mercies everywhere.

The stars, which twinkle in the skies,

Reflect a love which never dies;

While sun and moon, with their pure light,

Good sermons on the soul indite.

On earth below, in Heaven above,

Thy works bespeak thy crowning love

All Nature sounds thy Hallowed Name,

And chants thy Everlasting Fame!

In all thy works, throughout the land,

We see the wonders of thy Hand;

From lordly tree to lowly flower

We trace thine All-Transcendent Power.

O! give to us a searching heart,

That we may know thee as Thou art;

And with devoutness worship Thee,

As Thou, God, shouldst ever be!

There is indescribable beauty concealed even in the most insignificant
creation or production of nature.

There are as many strata of beauty in each separate thing in nature as


there are strata of life in the observer of nature.

The beautiful workmanship of His divine hand is upon all things both
material and spiritual; the more we recognise it, the more we shall
become reconciled to God and his beautiful creations.

The real beauty that is in nature is not in its form, or shape, or colour, but
in the life that is concealed by its form, and shape, and colour.

Why natures paths? From nature, all is that is.

Nature never conceals her beauty. Her beauty is always apparentalways
to be seenbut some persons are resolved not to see the beauty of
nature. Some persons turn their eyes away and focus them upon the
more trivial things and deny to themselves the most beautiful pleasure
upon earth.

Nature discloses to us just as much of her beauty as we are prepared to


appreciate, and no more.

Nature reveals herself to those only who go forth to meet her in sympathy
and love.

The forces of nature are great, and an understanding of nature will bring
the lovely precepts and examples that teach and lead us in beneficial
paths.

13 | P a g e

All nature is a bible, and the only bible that has any vestige of authority in
the universe.

Nature is the keynote around which hang the various laws we recognise
and realise as a true revelation.

14 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature has a language with which to converse with him who has an ear to
hear but she never speaks to him who comes merely to observe and to
study her. Nature reserves all her communications and conversations for
those who love herfor those who are in sympathy and harmony with
her.

Some men seek nature to learn of her; other and wiser men seek nature
to communicate through her with that which is beyond herthe divine.

15 | P a g e

Nature is inhuman

Yes, nature is inhuman because she is more than human; is nearer the
divine.

The more we love nature, the more nature reveals herself to us and the
more rapidly we evolve toward the divine.

16 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature has a privacy into which none dare intrude until they are admitted
by nature herself.

And nature never admits us into the inner courts of her life until we have
reached a very high state of spiritual evolutionuntil we are near to being
divine.

17 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
The external beauty that we see in nature is not worth mentioning in
comparison to that beauty that we shall observe as we advance further
into the courts of nature.

18 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
In nature, we find the various atoms of matter blended in different forms
with different attributes all living and working under the same laws of
cause and effect, attraction, repulsion, and the transformation processes.

The laws of God are immutable and unchangeable, and as we are born
under the law, we are to comply with the law, and reap the blessings
commensurate with the keeping of the law.

19 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
In the early stages of her evolution, nature was chiefly concerned with
life. Beauty came as an afterthought.

Nature offers us everything, but we must be patient. A thousand centuries


is but a little while with nature, and nature does not intend to give us
everything at once. A little at a time. Things given to us gradually through
an evolution is nature's way.

Nature keeps selecting and rejecting throughout all the early stages of
evolution. She allows nothing to proceed far in its development that does
not satisfy her, and the moment that any of her work fails to come up to
her standard, she begins to reconstruct it, or to destroy it.

Nature has not yet succeeded. Her work is still in the experimental stage.

Nature has not yet succeeded in making a man.

20 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
All nature is on the march toward perfection.

The fingerprints of nature are ever present, and repeating the same thing
over and over again.

21 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
22 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
He who lives alone with nature fears no dangeris afraid of no foedares
to look life in the face.

Nature must do away with fear before she can proceed much further on
her road to perfection.

Search diligently the ways of God, for in them we have external peace

and dominion.

23 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature, in all her various forms of life, shows how strikingly her laws are
enforced; working in the same groove, a complete system of growth,
maturity, and the final transition.

In all nature, we find intelligence, which is the culmination of the various


forms of life essences.

24 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
One within itself would not be of any consequence, but the culmination of
these various life essences brings an avowed intelligence.

Each and every element has its affinity, and in due time comes forward by
the avenues of intelligence in the birth of new forms.

Thus, we perceive the forces of the positive and negative, which carry
with them two other forms, attraction and repulsion.

25 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature is largely feminine in character. She has all the feminine
characteristics that we know best, and love best in woman.

God is our father, nature our mother, and it is upon our mother that our
development mostly depends.

Nature is our mother, our most valuable friend and guide, and like unto
the human mother who gave us birth, nature should be loved and
respected and followed.

26 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature is our guiding star

The power that leads us under any and all conditions.

Nature remembers, not what was, but what is. She concerns herself only
with the present and gives no thought to the past.

27 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
In nature, the seasons and years are markers of time, mileposts in our
material existence whose progress is slow due to a mind not as yet fully
developed, awaiting its future by a scientific study of life.

In all nature, there is intelligence made manifest in the various forms of


life.

28 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature speaks to us of God. Does, in fact, reveal to us God's laws, and
work, and beauty.

If we would speak with nature, we must approach her with expectations,


and humbly, as we would approach God.

Nature is the supreme authority on God and, therefore, on life.

29 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature is God's masterpiece. And there is nothing superior to nature in
the universe.

All nature is a temple; a sacred place where each one should go alone to
worship, or to live, if he would be near to God.

In all animated nature, we feel the presence and intelligence of life, the
life that is never lost. If you would know God, first try to become in some
way worthy of God's acquaintance and then go seek God alone in the
silence with nature, for it is in the silence with nature that God is most
often to be found.

30 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
He who does not know nature does not know God because God is the life-
spark that is in nature.

In nature, we are able to find God in his simplest form; in the only form in
which we are able to grasp him and to understand him.

Nature is the source of all enlightenment, of all knowledge, of all wisdom,


of all goodness and virtue and worth. Nature is the source of all things
that are, can be, or will be. Nature is the means by which God is made
manifest to us.

31 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature alone knows God, has ever felt him, or is capable of feeling him,
and in just so far as we are in perfect harmony with nature are we
capable of feeling and knowing God. However, our knowledge of God
depends upon our consciousness and our consciousness depends upon
evolution. He who is the most highly developed spiritually is the most able
to understand God, or nature, or life.

The way to eternal life lies through nature. Nature is the gateway that
leads to heaven. But there are many of these gateways in nature and we
must pass through all of them before we can arrive at that celestial city.

32 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Knowledge of nature cannot be learned, or acquired from others. It must
be attained through experience; through a close and harmonious
communication with nature. And this communication with nature can
come only through spiritual evolution and the gradual blending of our life
with all the life that is in nature.

The harmony that is in nature, which one hears only in solitude, or in the
silence with nature, thrills the highly developed spirit-life more completely
than does that highly cultivated music of society.

33 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
The music that is in nature is the loftiest of all music, and has the most
elevating influence of all music upon those who are able to hear it.

All nature is set to music, is by nature musical, and each separate thing in
nature has its own melody that it prefers to render.

The flowers in spring time send forth their fragrance to the atmosphere by
the incoming gases entering the cells of their bodies, so we, as spirit
entities, drink in from the great fountain of love the semblance of His
Majesty.

Thought actions are produced in nature;

Such are the expressions in all life.

39 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Not to obey the laws of nature is to be an outlawis to be forever and
eternally on the side of the badis to live out of harmony with the
purpose of life.

To those who are out of harmony with the purpose of life, nature
sometimes appears as a cold, heartless, relentless force that is to be
feared, and is feared.

He who fears to be and to live in the solitude with nature does not fear
nature but nature's Godis not living as wisely nor as well as he should
has some sin from which he should depart.

40 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
No one can be in harmony with nature who is out of harmony with God,
with the good, with the purpose of life.

To get in harmony with nature, we must be good, must obey all of


nature's laws, and in just so far as we obey all of nature's laws can we
hope to understand nature and the spirit-life that is in nature and in us
is us.

41 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
We belong to nature and nature to us. There is no difference. The
material that is in us and in nature is the same, and the life that is in both
of us is the same life. And this life differs only in its evolutionin its
development.

Nature is more important to us than friends, than books, than wealth. Is


equal in importance to us with our own life.

42 | P a g e

43 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature is the master force; the power that is in control of life. And that
man is simply foolish who does not study nature and strive to get into
harmony with nature and nature's work and purpose.

Nature is the master workman that is moulding and shaping our lives,
whether we believe in nature or not. But nature can do this work much
more perfectly and successfully if we believe in her and are in sympathy
with her and her purpose.

44 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature is the only authority upon the subject of life that is worth
considering.

45 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
All that is deepest and true, and most profound and beautiful in nature
cannot be expressed in wordscan only be suggested. And we can
understand that which is suggested to us by nature in so far only as we
are in harmonious rapport with nature.

Nature conceals her real beauty, her innerself from all save those who
love her, and who go forth alone into the silence with expectations,
hoping to meet her.

Out in the silence with nature, we become conscious of the fact that all
nature is filled with harmony.

46 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
47 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature loves with all her strength,

And might within her hand

Rules supreme, in breadth and length,

And rests, upon the strand

Nature all so pure and good,

Gives to each and every man

Just portions for his daily food

And raiment from the land.

Nature is more concerned with the purpose of life than she is with mere
life. Mere existence is of less interest to nature than evolutionthan
developmentthough existence is necessary in order that the evolution
may be attained. If nature thought that she could produce nothing more
perfect and loftier than she has produced, she would become despondent
and discouraged and cease to struggle.

52 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature, in her attempt to realise her conception of life and beauty, begins
on a small scale and proceeds upward with infinite pains and patience.

Nearly everything in nature prefers to be left alone to live its own life in
its own way; prefers to be left alone to work out its own destiny.

53 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature rules by law and not by preaching.

Believe in nature or not as you please, but if you are wise you will keep in
harmony with nature's laws, whether you believe in nature or not.

Nature is the supreme law and the court of last appeal on all questions of
right and wrong.

54 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature has laws that deal out justice in all cases of right and wrong,
automatically, and these laws never fail to be completely, entirely,
accurately just.

A legal right is no right at all in the court of love.

Nature does not recognise any such a right, neither does God. It is man
only, among all of God's creation, who is so stupid as to assume that a
legal right exists, and has precedence over the sacred rights of love.

55 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature is able to reach us even in the heart of a great city, and to help us
to live wisely though we are far from her temple and too much a slave of
commercialism to behold all her beauty or understand most of her laws.

Nature is the source of all our wisdom.

It is from nature that all truths are to be learned.

56 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
From nature, we can learn all that is necessary for us to know in this life.

All depends upon our attitude whether we are to learn from nature or not.

We can never get too close to nature;

Can never learn too much of her.

2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature never harms us.

She soothes us, quiets our restless nerves and fills us with harmony and
health.

Nature is more serene, and calm, and loftier than man.

We live in perpetual discord while all nature is filled with harmony and
peace.

60 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
The most delicious fruits that nature yields are all spiritual fruits. They are

spiritual enlightenment, increased self-consciousness, wisdom, an

increased sense of the beautiful, knowledge of life and what it is about,

and an understanding of God.

Nature loves uscalls to usand will not in any case allow any of us to

become completely, entirely lost to her. Nature will not allow any of us to

entirely escape from her temple, or out from under her care, or parental

influence.

61 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
At fireside and the hearthstone,
Nature teaches, oh, so sweet
The love notes of the new born,
In twain do both loves meet.

Nature gives to each new parent,


Lessons for each to learn
And sends them forth in patience,
To bring their just return.

Nature has a language that requires no vocal sounds or words. A
language that is more eloquent, more melodious, more beautiful, and
more persuasive than that of any other language in the world.

65 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
He knows most of God who is the most highly developed spiritually, for
spiritual development leads to God through nature.

Nature never speaks to those who are unworthy of being spoken toto
those who lack sufficient spiritual development, or to those who approach
her as though they merely wished to counsel with her upon some
important question.

Those only are qualified to speak of nature who are in sympathetic and
emotional rapport with nature.

66 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature is willing to create a thousand writers in order that she may select
one that is suitable to be her scribe; in order that she may find one that is
capable of observing her, and detecting her whims, and fancies, and
purposes, and giving expression to these. Nature loves to be reported but
not to be falsely reported.

Nature is more refined than culture, more delicate, more sincere, and
more beautiful. It is only when nature has been trifled with that it
becomes coarse and in need of an artificial polish.

All nature overflows in some way and in some direction. And this overflow
in our nature reveals the man.

67 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
The natural is the spiritual. Every effort that nature makes is a spiritual
effort.

68 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
In nature, it is not the flower that is the most interesting, nor the bird,
nor the tree, but the lifethe spiritthat is in the flower, and the bird,
and the tree.

The spirit-life that is in nature is the only important thing that is in nature
and the only thing in nature that has life.

There is a brain in nature that directs and leads, and controls and shows
us the way. And this brain is of a spiritual nature, like our subconscious
mind, yet far more powerful and wiser and serene and certain.

Nature is forever forsaking the old for the newis each day becoming
more enlightened and intelligent.

69 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature is less interested in her physical development than she is in her
spiritual development. She cares less for her form or shape or colour than
she does for her life-spark, her spirit, her inner, or real self.

Nature has improved by experience. She is able to do today what she was
unable to do a few hundred centuries ago, or when the spirit-life that is in
man was first entrusted in her care.

70 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature is not so proud of man as we assume. She loves us less than she
loves her latest bornthat tiny spark of God that is more in need of her
parental love and care, and of whom, perhaps, she expects more than
from man.

71 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
The life germ in all nature is spirit, and the only difference there is in this
germ is in its developmentits evolutionits growth.

The reason why we should go to nature in its simplest forms to study


spirit-life is because spirit-life is found there in its simplest form

Is found there before it has become so highly developed and complicated


as it is in man.

72 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Morals have to do with the social relations of man, and not with nature or
God. Nature and God are concerned with the good, and not with the
moral.

He cannot be otherwise than good who spends his life in the silence with
nature.

73 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
It is when we are out in the silence with nature that most of our lofty
thoughts come, and they come unattended and unannounced, and as
direct as if fired at us from the barrel of a gun.

74 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature is the only healing force in the world

And nature is more able to heal us out in the silence than anywhere else.

The silence of nature reveals the first faint sound of every change that is
to be wrought in the world and in life. It tells us all that we need to know
upon every subject on which it is necessary that we be informed.

75 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Nature is bent upon winning us away from the material things of life. She
would take us by the hand and lead us out into the silence, and show us
God; the God who sits upon his throne and rules the universe through law
and order.

No temple is quite so sacred as this silence into which nature would lead
us, no prayer is quite so serious, or thought so lofty, or feeling so serene
and peaceful.

He who has not been led by nature out into the silence where God reigns
and there been made to feel the presence of God has not yet experienced
religion or been lifted up to the plain of spiritual life.

76 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
It is in the silence with nature that all the wisdom of the world is
whisperedthat all the secrets of life are talked of, and nothing of
importance is left undiscussed.

It is the silence of nature that speaks with so much melodythat tells us


so much of Godthat fills our ears with harmony, and our spirit-life with
rapture.

To listen in on the silence of nature is to listen in on God and to learn


what our Creator is about.

77 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Next to the silence of nature, beauty is the most important thing that God
has to disclose to us.

78 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Out in the silence with nature, goodness reigns, virtue is to be found, and

every evil either takes to its heels or ceases to be.

In the silence with nature or in solitude, we have a chance to enjoy our

own society, to get acquainted with our spirit-life, and perchance to learn

who we are and what we are, and why we are.

79 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
That society in which none intrude save the silence and the harmony of
nature is the best possible society, and the most companionable, and
lofty, and serene, and godlike.

80 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Some spirits flee from the silence or from the solitude of nature because
their lives are out of harmony with the good, with nature, with God. Some
spirits flee from the silence of nature because they fear to disclose to
nature their real attitude.

To flee from the silence, from the solitude of nature is a confession of


guiltis an admission that one is living out of harmony with the law of
Spiritual Evolutionis an admission that one is retarding and delaying
one's own spiritual-self on its road to perfection.
81 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Next to the creation and maintenance of life, beauty is the most
important thing that nature has undertaken and the one thing upon which
she has spent most of her time and talent.

Beauty precedes the transplanting of all life from one form to another. It
prepares the way for all such changes in nature and leads up to them.

83 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Everything that tends to help nature in the accomplishment of her
purpose, whatever that purpose may be, is good, and everything that
tends to retard, to delay nature in the accomplishment of her purpose,
whatever that purpose may be, is bad. All other conceptions of the good
and the bad, of the right and the wrong, are false conceptionsare
conceptions that are based upon a misunderstanding of the purpose of
life.

We cannot approach close to the good without approaching close to


nature and to God.

84 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
We must be good to be able to live in solitudeto be able to live in the
silence with nature. And he who lives in the silence with nature will each
day become better than he was the day before.

To be good is to be in harmony with the laws of nature, is to be in


harmony with the conditions that tend to develop spirit-life the most
rapidly, and to bring to that life the most vitality.

God is on the other side of nature from us

Ones own spiritual-self on its road to perfection.

85 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
The road to God leads through nature. It is a road that only a few have
observed closely, and scarcely a hundred have thought to follow for any
distance, yet it is the road that leads to God.

If we could penetrate through nature, we would come into the presence of


God.

If nature does not speak to you of God, and tell you all you need to know,
then the time has not yet come when it is necessary that you should
know God.

Go out into the silence with nature and listen. Perhaps God has something
that he wishes to say to you.
86 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
You must seek God in solitude or in the silence with nature if you would
find him, or converse with him, or learn to understand him.

God is the God of nature, though each separate thing in nature may have

go.

Not even God is superior to nature because God is natureis nature in its
perfectionis nature in that perfection toward which all life is evolving.

Those who condemn God in nature do so through ignorance and lack of
enlightenment and development. They not only do not know God, but
they are not sufficiently high in the scale of spiritual evolution to know or
to understand him.

Fundamentally, God is nature, and all that has sprung from nature.

The road that leads to contentment and peace, and happiness and
enlightenment, and wisdom and spiritual development is harmony

Is to get into harmony with nature, with the purpose of life.

There must be harmony between the spirit-life and nature before there
can be harmony of thought or of perception.

Get in harmony with the purpose of life,


With nature,
And all is well.

Just as harmony prevails throughout all nature, so does discord prevail
wherever unnatural men are to be found.

All places where men gather are filled with discordwith discordant
thought waves. Thought waves from different minds cross and recross
each other and destroy the harmony that should prevailthat does
prevailout in the silence with nature, or in the solitude of one's home or
study.

All unhappiness is the result of being out of harmony with the purpose of
life. All discontent is the result of a discord between nature and usis the
result of a discord that may be caused by anything that retards spiritual
evolution and defeats the purpose of life or nature.

That religion is truest that contains the most wisdom

That is the most in harmony with the laws of nature.

Faith requires of us nothing that is unreasonable, that is unjust, that is


untrue, that is unnatural, or in any way out of harmony with nature. Faith
requires of us only hope and trust. A belief in the good and a desire to get
in harmony with the purpose of life whatever that purpose may be.

The bible is the work of man.

Nature is the work of God.

Nature has written the only bible that appeals to the enlightened man.
And as man becomes more and more enlightened, he will insist more and
more upon a religion that is in harmony with naturethat is nature.

If you would know life and what it is all about, go to nature. Nature
teaches us all we need to know, or can know about God, the Creator of
the Universe.

The best explanation of God comes from God's workfrom nature.

We are enlightened by love, by sympathy, by admiration, by all things


that are in harmony with the laws of nature.

95 | P a g e

Nature is all-sufficient to give forth her own, and through that channel
new fields will open and new workers placed within the gates.

Reflex action in nature tends to destroy a harmful structure when they


come in contact rather than to build it. To overcome them, it is essential
to hold aloof from all elements that would tend to disarm our best
intentions and purposes.

In all of natures work you see

Beauty in all its wondrous tones,

The rivers, lakes, flowers, and bees

Among the trees of nature sown.

All the colours from mornings sky

And setting of the evening sun

Perceive in nature all her own.

Out in the silence with nature, there is harmony and it is in this harmony
of silence, rather than in the discord of sounds, that great men are born
and developed and become great.

Every great or highly developed spirit-life is the product of solitude, or of


the silence of nature.

99 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Every great thought, or idea, or conception that we conceive comes to us
from solitude, or out of the silence of nature.

Only when we are in the silence with nature are we in position to be


guided or instructed or helped by the deadby those spirit-lives that are
above and beyond us.

The silence of nature is healthful and healing. It tends to destroy discord


and to produce harmony between life and us.

Go out into the silence with nature and listen to what nature has to say if
you would learn how trivial the ways of men are or if you would become
enlightened, or learned, or wise.

100 | P a g e
2017 Luisa Rodrigues. All rights reserved.
Silence tells us much which no words or sounds can tell us. It reveals to
us beauty and discloses to us wisdom that is beyond the power of human
language to express.

To be able to live in the silence with nature, in solitude, is one of the


greatest of all virtues because solitude makes the highest possible
demands upon the spiritual man.

101 | P a g e

All spiritual communications must reach us through the harmony of
silence, or the solitude of nature; must reach us when we are alone with
God and all is still.

Material sounds produce discords and interfere with what nature has to
say.

The spirit-life that is in man is related to the spirit-life that is in the


flower, or in the tree, and when man observes the beauty of these, it is
their inneror spirit-beauty that he most often observes. It is their
inneror spirit-beauty that most often astonishes him and excites his
admiration.

Spirit-life is not interested in the things that concern material lifeis not

He lives within the human mind,

To crush the prevalent works of strife.

Will hatred, selfish thought be torn

From within the heart of every man,

And stronger purposes unfold

To better help where ere it can?

The little birds perched far above,

Attract by mirth and song,

True men who with a fervent love,

Listen as they pass along.

You attract the loved ones the same

As birds with their mirthful song,

And bring to you, dear ones

Who help you march along.

All things of real spiritual value to life, and in life, are free to all who
possess the ability to grasp them, and to understand them, and
appreciate them. And the ability to grasp, and to understand, and
appreciate spiritual things depends upon spiritual developmentupon
evolution. And spiritual evolution depends largely upon our attitude
toward the purpose of life; depends upon whether we are in harmony with
nature and her laws, or not.

The road to heaven is a road that few men understandin all the
centuries past have understoodand yet it is a road that is so simple and
so plainly discernible that all ought to be able to understand it and to
follow it without many slips.

The road to heaven is simply spiritual evolution obtained through


following the good that we know, and aspiring to reach that loftier good
that we have reasons for believing is just ahead.

The road to heaven is simply a spiritual growth, a slow unfolding, a


development obtained by living in harmony with a law that is perfectly
discernible to all who will to behold it and to follow it.

The world that we know is a mere trivial in comparison to the worlds


within this world that we know, for within this world that we know there
are millions of other worlds and each of these other worlds is more
mysterious and strange and astonishing than the one of which we know.
And if we could follow these inner worlds far enough, we would come at
last to the one world that is more mysterious and astonishing than all the
othersthe spiritual world.
