The glorious Revelation of Divine Science, which Love has brought to this age, is a gift so priceless that it seems to me, we as yet, scarcely appreciate it. The power of the Light is wonderful, infinite above all material expression, yet so lovingly has it been given to us, that even a child, a beginner in this Science, can catch gleams here and there, and be encouraged to press forward in this grand work.
A good illustration of this point was shown me one evening on the steam cars. In looking through the car window I noticed what a perfect illusion was formed by the reflection of the opposite side of the car. It seemed as if, on looking through my window, I looked into another car also full of people. It was so perfect as to be almost startling. Very soon I noticed points of light appear, and in such odd places, through a man's head, a woman's bonnet, and sometimes right through the seeming side of the car. At first it puzzled me, and then I saw that as we passed a gas or electric light, it pierced the illusion and was just as bright to my material vision, as if there had been no illusion there; and from these manifestations I learned a lesson.
We have to look only for the Light, and must not stop at what to us seems solid substance, for the Light can and does shine over all, in all and through all. There is no condition of thought which Love cannot pierce. I saw too, how the Light and the illusion never mingled. The illusion had no power to shut out the Light, for the Light was Real, and the other unreal.
