"I who am the beauty of the green earth, and the white moon among the stars,
and the mystery of the waters, call unto thy soul: Arise, and come unto me.
For I am the soul of nature, who gives life to the universe.

From Me all things proceed, and unto Me all things must return; and before My face,
beloved of gods and of men, let thine innermost divine self be enfolded in the rapture
of the infinite. Let My worship be within the heart that rejoices; for behold, all acts of
love and pleasure are My rituals. And therefore let there be beauty and strength,
power and compassion, honor and humility, mirth and reverence within you.
And thou who thinkest to seek Me, know that thy seeking and yearning shall avail thee not
unless thou knowest the Mystery: that if that which thou seekest thou findest not
within thee, thou wilt never find it without. For behold, I have been with thee from the
beginning; and I am that which is attained at the end of desire."
