Equality And Unity


Freedom, equality and brotherhood are three godheads of the soul; they cannot be really achieved through the external machinery of society or by man so long as he lives only in the individual and the communal ego….

The union of liberty and equality can only be achieved by the power of human brotherhood. But brotherhood exists only in the soul and by the soul. For, this brotherhood is not about physical kinship or vital association or intellectual agreement. When the soul claims freedom, it is the freedom of its self-development, the self-development of the divine in man in all his being. When it claims equality, it is claiming freedom equally for all and recognition of the same soul, the same godhead in everyone. When it strives for brotherhood, it is founding that equal freedom of self-development on a common aim, a common life, a unity of mind, and feeling founded upon the recognition of this inner spiritual unity.

These three things are the nature of the soul; for, freedom, equality and unity are the eternal attributes of the Spirit. It is the practical recognition of this truth, it is the awakening of the soul in man and the attempt to get him to live from his soul and not from his ego that is the inner meaning of religion, and it is that to which the religion of humanity also must arrive before it can fulfil itself in the life of the race.
