When we look on the multiplicity of the world, it is

only a crowded plurality that we can find and to

arrive at unity we have to reduce, to suppress what

we have seen or sparingly select a few indications or

to be satisfied with the unity of this or that separate

idea, experience or imagination; but when we have

realised the self, the infinite unity and look back on

the multiplicity of the world, then we find that

oneness able to bear all the infinity of variation and

circumstance we can crowd into it and its unity

remains unabridged by even the most endless self-

multiplication of its informing creation.
