This is the true self-denial, which the Hindus called laya, and the Buddhists annihilation. It is the annihilation of the false self, which gives rise to the true self. Once this is done, man approaches closer and closer to God and stands face to face with his divine ideal, with whom he can communicate at every moment of his life. The law of God is endless, as limitless as God himself, and once the eye of the seeker penetrates through the veil that hangs before him, hiding from his eyes the real law of life, the mystery of the whole life manifests to him. Happiness and peace become his own, for they are the birthright of every soul.
