What manifests itself as attraction in the sentient and the
insentient, in the particular and in the universal, is the love of God.
It is
the one motive power that is in the universe.
Under the impetus of that love,
Christ gives his life for humanity, Buddha even for an animal, the mother for
the child, the husband for the wife.
It is under the impetus of the same love
that men are ready to give up their lives for their country, and strange to
say, under the impetus of the same love, the thief steals, the murderer
murders. Even in these cases, the spirit is the same, but the manifestation is
different.
This is the one motive power in the universe.
This is the one motive power in the universe.
