Today more than ever before man realizes the bond of unity that exists within the race; he's endeavoring to employ the accumulated knowledge and wisdom of the ages. He's employing modern science and technology; he's reaping the benefits, however limited, of political and economic unity; & to that extent. he's transcending the age-old barriers that have divided the race so long & is endeavoring to reflect on the welfare not only of himself & his immediate neighbor but also on the welfare of all the human race. This endeavor is in harmony with the spirit of the mystics of ages gone by “... in the mystic traditions of the different religions we have a remarkable unity of the spirit. Whatever religions they may profess they are spiritual kinsmen. While the different religions in their historic forms bind us to limited groups & militate against the development of loyalty to the world community, the mystics have always stood for the fellowship of humanity," so Your Excellency has taught us.
