The light of understanding.

 

“There is one mind common to all individual men.  Every man is an inlet to the same and to all of the same.  He that is once admitted to  the  right  of  reason  is  made  a  freeman  of  the  whole  estate.    What  Plato  has  thought,  he  may  think;  what  a  saint  has  felt,  he  may  feel;  what  at  any  time  has  befallen any man, he can understand.  Who hath access to this Universal Mind, is a party to all that is or can be done, for this is the only and sovereign agent.” ~Emerson
