Vol. 14, The Smiling ForeheadThe Process of Spiritual UnfoldmentFour WaysThere is a beautiful story of an old scientist who never believed in God, but whose wife had religion. When the scientist became ill and old and his reasoning faculties and the stiffness he had against spiritual things became loosened, he said to his wife, I wonder if there is anything. I will not believe it, but I should like to know if there is anything else. You never lacked religion, do you think there is something? You are so happy." She said, "I am happy in the belief I have." I cannot have that belief," answered he, "but I have you and what I can share is your happiness." |
