Once we begin to blend in our consciousness the consciousness of the East and the West, the North and the South, and of the ancient and the modern, we will become universally attuned with the Cosmic.  You realize, of course, that the Cosmic has no need for the points of the compass.  You will realize gradually that you are not of the world or really in the world, but that the world is within you.  This will lead to the first conscious comprehension of what is meant by the macrocosm and microcosm of which we will have more to say later.

Read this daily and ponder it for a week.
