Live in the Discovered Soul

Great civilizations were destroyed

When spiritual growth was stilled

And demon forces in man toyed

With him and darker motives willed.

Though mind has grown and man evolved

But partially above the beast,

The truth of life remains unsolved

Until the need for death has ceased,

For there remains the spirit's need

To progress in the human mould,

Death is the helper, so decreed

And new attempts must break the old

Forms that crystallized the cell

And we who would understand our role

Must strive to break the age-long spell

And live in the discovered soul.
