The external part of an individual can be likened to the outer form of a globe, while the mind takes the place of the finer inner machinery. This is the mechanical part of being. There remains the soul which is the divine heritage, a spiritual current shooting forth from that Spirit which is the source of all things. Therefore the soul has in it a potentiality, a creative power as its divine heritage. On the one side man is limited and imperfect; on the other side he represents the unlimited and perfect. That is why Christ has said, "Be ye perfect even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." It means: one not only inherits from one's earthly parents, but one also inherits that creative power which makes one's life from the Father in heaven.
