\nThe End<\/font><\/b><\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n            
\n<\/span><\/b>
\nT<\/b>HE meeting of man and God
\nmust always mean a penetration and entry of the Divine into the human and a
\nself-immergence of man in the Divinity.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n


\n     <\/span>But that
\nimmergence is not in the nature of an annihilation. Extinction is not the
\nfulfilment of all this search and passion, suffering and rapture. The game would
\nnever have been begun if that were to be its ending.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n


\n     <\/span>Delight is the
\nsecret. Learn of pure delight and thou shalt learn of God.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n


\n     <\/span>What then was
\nthe commencement of the whole matter? Existence that multiplied itself for sheer
\ndelight of being and plunged into numberless trillions of forms so that it might
\nfind itself innumerably.<\/p>\n

     <\/span>And what is the
\nmiddle? Division that strives towards a multiple unity, ignorance that labours
\ntowards a flood of varied light, pain that travails towards the touch of an
\nunimaginable ecstasy. For all these things are dark figures and perverse
\nvibrations.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n


\n     <\/span>And what is the
\nend of the whole matter? As if honey could taste itself and all its drops
\ntogether and all its drops could taste each other and each the whole honeycomb
\nas itself, so should the end be with God and the soul of man and the universe.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n


\n     <\/span>Love is the
\nkey-note, Joy is the music, Power is the strain, Knowledge is the performer, the
\ninfinite All is the composer and audience. We know only the preliminary discords
\nwhich are as fierce as the harmony shall be great; but we shall arrive surely at
\nthe fugue of the divine Beatitudes.<\/span><\/p>\n
