Step 2. Philosophic Building Blocks

The Overself’s Love

…. Instead of having to beg some woman or some man for crumbs of affection from their table, he will find a veritable fountain of everflowing love deep within his heart, and therefore ever available to him in the fullest measure. This is the one beloved who can never desert him, the unique soul-mate who will forever remain with him, the only twin soul he can seek with the absolute certainty that it is truly his own.

2.1.5.406, Excerpt2016-04-23

Because he has access to this inward source, he may live the loneliest of lives but it will not be loveless. The joy and warmth of its ever-presence will abide with him.

14.22.3.1292010-10-31

You will comprehend that while the Overself thus enfolds you, you can never again feel lonely, never again find the sky turned black because some human love has been denied or been withdrawn from you.

14.22.6.1102013-12-26

The feeling of being isolated, the sense of walking a lonely path, is true outwardly but untrue inwardly. For there he is companioned by the Overself’s gentle ever-drawing love. He has only to grope within sufficiently to know this for himself, and to know it with absolute certitude.

2.1.3.3212013-12-17

In very truth the Overself becomes his beloved companion, bringing an intense satisfaction and profound love which no external friendship could ever bring.

14.22.3.1302016-04-01

The Inner Being will rise and reveal Himself just as soon as the ego becomes sufficiently humbled, subdued, surrendered. The assurance of this is certain because we live forever within the Love of God.

12.18.4.1392015-01-08

The Overself acts through inexorable law, yes, but love is part of the law. Grace violates no principle but rather fulfils the highest principle.

12.18.5.892016-11-01

How does the quest remove his fears? By providing him sooner or later with firm assurance that the Overself’s gracious power is not only illuminative but also protective.

2.1.5.3802012-01-22

The joy that emanates from the Overself has a healing quality. It dissipates anxieties and eradicates neuroses.

14.22.3.1522013-11-13

It is this grandeur of self that is the magnetic pole drawing us to the Good, the Beautiful, the Just, the True, and the Noble. Yet itself is above all these attributes for it is the Attributeless, the Ineffable, and Infinite that human thought cannot grasp.

14.22.3.1782011-09-16

From the outside, by means of events, persons, or books; from the inside, by means of intuitions, thoughts, feelings, and urges–this is how the way is shown him by the Overself.

14.22.3.1242014-01-06

Only those who have felt it can know the completely satisfying nature of the love which flows to and fro between the ego and the Overself at such enkindled moments. They may be gone the same day but they will reflect themselves in a whole lifetime’s aspiration thereafter.

14.22.7.612013-12-22

It is a state of exquisite tenderness, of love welling up from an inner centre and radiating outward in all directions. If other human beings or animal creatures come within his contact at the time, they become recipients of this love without exception. For then no enemies are recognized, none are disliked, and it is not possible to regard anyone as repulsive.

14.22.6.832011-02-19

Because it gives new hope, fresh encouragement, and the prospect of eventual relief from trouble, the glimpse is like a rainbow in the sky. It reminds him that a providential love is still behind the world and his own existence.

14.22.7.1002013-11-21

Yes, your guardian angel is always present and always the secret witness and recorder of your thoughts and deeds. Whether you go down into the black depths of hell or ascend to the radiant heights of heaven, you do not walk alone.

14.22.3.2292014-03-20

The Overself is truly our guardian angel, ever with us and never deserting us. It is our invisible saviour. But we must realize that it seeks primarily to save us not from suffering but from the ignorance which is the cause of our suffering.

14.22.3.3012010-11-27

The central message of philosophy to the modern era is that man is not isolated but supported by a friendly power, not left in the dark but surrounded by helping hands.

9.13.1.332011-11-01

… When the outside world does him injustice or slanders him or hurts him or defrauds him, he turns inward, deeper and deeper inward, until he stands in the presence of the Overself. Then he finds absolute serenity, absolute love…

14.22.3.1312013-09-28

If only he heeds its intuitive message, the higher self will not fail him. He will make his way to true balanced sanity and deep inner calm. Without searching for others, knowing that in himself God’s representative resides and that this can give the right kind of help, he will depend for self-reliance on an ever-presence.

14.22.1.1372011-02-06

… Underneath the surface sufferings which no one escapes, far deeper down than its counterpart, is a vast harmony, an immense love, an incredible peace, and a universal support.

15.24.1.102, Excerpt2019-02-13

I will never tire of telling men that the Overself is as loving as any parent and that it does care for our real welfare. But we must return that love, must give our unconditional devotion, if we are to have a correct relationship with it.
