              The objective of education should therefore be the training  of the mechanism to respond to the life of the soul. The Higher Self or Soul is  the sumtotal of the consciousness of the Monad, again in time and space. The  lower self or soul is, for our purposes, as much of that sumtotal as any one  person in any one life can use and express. This activity is dependent upon the  type and quality of the body nature, the mechanism produced by soul activity in  other lives, and the effect of reaction to environing conditions.  |
