“There is nothing useful in a doubting stubbornness that bitterly says that it will set meaningless conditions upon which to build its pillars so as to [understand] God and His world, [a stance] that stubbornly demands to find comfort, a solution, precisely in this small flash of the life of the senses, of the circumscribed flesh and spirit, in this temporary life that passes like a fleeting shadow.
That is not the way. [It is true that] the [incomplete] part is important and worthy, the flesh is refined and beloved, and the spirit awakens and arises.
But all of these attain their greatness, their radiance, [only] when they yearn radiantly [as they face] the center of the course of their being, which is given prominence only because it has been carved out in a divine manner, only [because it derives] from the divine source that the holy people of the world—the champions of supernal ethics, the lions of justice and truth, the kings of faith and simple-heartedness, the rulers of life and conquerors of death, who ride the heights of existence—with their intellect and feeling, with a mighty spirit that is the holy of holies, which peals before them like a bell, in the thunder of their might that transcends all boundaries of time and place free themselves and the entire world together with them from narrow obligations and constrained boundaries.”
