James Allen Today
When a storm has subsided, and all is calm again, observe
how all nature seems to pause in a restorative silence. A restful quiet pervades all things, so that
even inanimate objects seem to participate in the recuperative repose. So when
a too violent eagerness or a sudden burst of passion has spent itself, there
comes a period of reflective thought, a time of calm, in which the mind is restored,
and things are seen in their true outlines and right proportions.
It is wise to take advantage of this quiet time by gaining a
truer knowledge of one’s self, and forming a more kindly judgment of others.
The hour of calm is the hour of restoration.
Joy comes and fills the self-emptied heart; it abides with
the peaceful; its reign is with the pure.
“Purification is necessarily severe. All becoming is
painful”.
“Make your every thought, word and deeds sweet and pure”.
James Allen,
19th January, 1913
