Persistence of species
From a material source flows no remedy for sorrow,
sin, and death, for the redeeming power, from the ills
they occasion, is not in egg nor in dust. The
blending tints of leaf and flower show the
order of matter to be the order of mortal mind. The
intermixture of different species, urged to its utmost
limits, results in a return to the original species. Thus
it is learned that matter is a manifestation of mortal
mind, and that matter always surrenders its claims when
the perfect and eternal Mind is understood.
