Manifestation Of The Will Of Man

All the actions that we see in the world, all the movements in human society, all the works that we have around us, are simply the works that we have around us, are simply the display of thought, the manifestation of the will of man. Machines or instruments, cities, ships or men-of- war, all these are simply the manifestation of the will of man; and this will is caused by character and character is manufactured by Karma. As is Karma, so is the manifestation of the will. The men of mighty will the world has produced have all been tremendous workers- gigantic souls with wills powerful enough to overturn words, wills they got by persistent work through ages and ages.

Buddha or a Jesus

Such a gigantic will as that of a Buddha or a Jesus could not be obtained in one life, for we know who their fathers were. It is not Known that their fathers ever spoke a word for the good of mankind. Millions and millions are still living Millions and millions of petty Kings like Buddha’s father had been in the world. If it was only a case of hereditary transmission, how do you account for this petty prince who was not, perhaps, obeyed by his own servants, producing this son whom half a world worships! How do you explain the gulf between the carpenter and his son whom millions of human beings worship as God! It cannot be solved by the theory of heredity .The gigantic will which Buddha and Jesus threw over the world, whence did it come! Whence came this accumulation of power! It must have been there through ages and ages, continually growing bigger and bigger, until it burst on society in a Buddha or a Jesus, even rolling down to the present day.
