The Reason or Logos of God is the reason or logos of each individual. Clement of<br />

Alexandria taught that we are educated by the indwelling Deity, the Divine Reason or<br />

Logos. Each man has a fragment of eternal Truth from the ever-living Word. When they<br />

are brought together (as the body of Osiris or Zagreus) the Perfect Word or Lost Word is<br />

restored. There is "One Lord and One God of the Greeks and the barbarians, or rather of<br />

the whole race of men". Origen taught that the Logos was the divine<br />

Instructor of humanity.<br />

Through meditation the consciousness of each can be raised to unity with the individual<br />

Monad via the Higher Self. The Monad is One with our Father in Heaven. Therefore we<br />

are gods in the becoming.<br />

The Unity of Religions (B)<br />

St. Teresa in her book The Interior Castle (the Castle of the Soul) described the Soul as<br />

progressing from the circumference to the centre of a circular building through seven sets<br />

of apartments or mansions. In the innermost a vision of the Holy Trinity is obtained and<br />

the Soul is given an intuitional knowledge of the spiritual realms.<br />

Walter Hilton wrote of a ladder of perfection, leading from the active life through<br />

knowledge of the learned and love of the simple to Oneness with God where the Soul can<br />

see and know spiritual things. Similarly, the spiritual ladder of William Langland leads<br />

the Soul to unity with Christ through the practise of virtue.<br />

The Greeks taught the ethical virtues, then mathematical sciences and philosophy, before<br />

the final knowledge of the mystical way via the Ideas or Forms of the Good, True and<br />

Beautiful. Wisdom (Sophia) is distinct from and higher than Mind (Nous). There is the<br />

mystical experience of expansion into the Cosmic Mind (Mahat) and the achievement of<br />

oneness with it.<br />
