"Every finite being is unconsciously and imperceptibly drawn onwards, like a moth to a flame, to the infinite being... There is no real happiness, no true peace, no enduring satisfaction until this goal is reached. None of us would aspire toward the divine if it were not already present within us to prompt the aspiration. None of us would feel this lacerating nostalgia for the beatific life if the latter did not really exist."
~ Paul Brunton~
