Spirit and Form

Spirit and Form is a practical guidebook intended for those who have seriously committed themselves to the path towards the Spirit. The title refers to the intricate relationship between the way in which we shape our lives in the outer world and our inner development. The forms through which we express our thoughts and emotions, the ways in which we order our physical environment, the decisions we make as to work and play, public and domestic life: all can be used to enhance our inner life, and all should be made to "remind us of our spirit's height."

Everything that is of the Spirit has substance and form, and everything in the physical world is imbued with Spirit. Form and Spirit are one and permeate each other. Thus, our task is to give form to our lives with "the respectful reverence one owes the spirit's life."
