Consciousness of the Atom: Lectures on Theosophy. Alice Bailey

great Body, but we can find some group in which we have our place, some body of people with whom we can co-operate and work, some brother or brothers whom we can succour and assist. It really involves the conscious contacting of the ideal of brotherhood, and—until we have evolved to the stage where our concept is universal—it means finding the particular set of brothers whom we can love and help by means of the law of sacrifice, and by the transmutation of selfishness into loving service. Thus we can co-operate in the general purpose, and participate in the mission of the group.

      Next week we will follow out some of these ideas in connection with the evolution of substance, and the part it plays in the general scheme.
