190 / TO LIGHT A THOUSAND LAMPS Today we are witnessing a revivification of the ancient dream of the onehood of all lives among a cross section of individuals committed to making it a fact in human relationships. There is indeed generated a power, a dynamic energy, wherever individuals of dedication are aspiring, even momentarily, in synchrony with the heart of Being. No one of us singly may be of particular significance, spiritually or otherwise; but collectively, each person contributing spontaneously of his unique quality of soul essence to uplifting mankind — who is to say what unpredictable and potent e¤ect this might not have on inner lines? Jesus but repeated the ancient law: ‘‘where two or three are gathered together in my name, . . .’’ Spiritual teachings have power to elevate human beings; and whereas noble ideals in the thoughtatmosphere have potency in themselves, when they are undergirded by individuals living those ideals, a certain magic can occur. To think that our civilization is fated to continue its selfish and destructive habits is to prostitute precious thought power to negative ends. Conversely, to see ourselves as we truly are is to make a total change in our perspective: we are not separate, warring personalities but o¤spring of the cosmos, divine beings currently passing through the human phase for the sake of broadening and enriching our experience. While no one person can achieve single-handedly the miracle of world regeneration, millions of personal victories over self can have a miraculous e¤ect. Suppose that an increasing number of altruisticallyminded people were to direct their aspirations toward high thinking and unselfish deeds, inevitably suªcient power
A New Continent of Thought / 191 would be generated to e¤ect a spontaneous transmutation of humanity’s life-patterns — from narrow egocentricity to largeness of compassion. What the karma of the world will be is not ours to know; but if we simply and wholly o¤er our best, impersonally, we will be building bridges leading to that ‘‘new continent of thought’’ of which the Master speaks.
