Jesus declared and illustrated potentially what the world was, and is, waiting for: The Love of God. He gave the name "Father" to God (instead of "King" or "Ruler"). He revealed God's Infinite Love, and while he declared the Truth as from God, He did not say, "I am God," but said, "of myself I am nothing" (all was from the "Father"); He promised that the time would come when the "Comforter, the Spirit of Truth," would reveal all things.

Thus the Light of the "Divine Good" was spread by Buddha Gautama over Asia, and by Jesus of Nazareth over Palestine, and that "Western World" that had not yet become known. By his Life and Teaching the perfect Truth was made more clear, and He revealed the Light which is to come. Christ Jesus, in a few brief sentences, condensed the meaning of that Dispensation of which His life was the crowning glory.

"Be ye perfect even as your Father in Heaven is perfect."

Upon the Cross he said:

"Father forgive them for they know not what they do."

Thus the Great Cycle culminated; the Divine Drama was finished; the Revealment finished, that showing the meaning of the Shadow shows the Light that conquers the Shadow: "By the revealment of Infinite Love and by the conquest of the individual over ills that are the result of selfishness," by "overcoming evil with Good."

"A new commandment I give unto you: that ye love one another."

Love, The Triumph Of The World

The world waits for the perfect word;

But even as the Lotus flower Upbears the mystery of the divine

Vishnu in his wondrous power.

So when all knowledge shall be known, When all the power has been revealed.

When Wisdom and Love can claim their own, And beauty that was well concealed;

When the Perfect Light of all is seen

In the reflected wonders here, The rare Madonna full and bright

Reveals the presence that is near;

When goodness in the Infinite shows

The ever-potent perfect plan; What can the Word be that shall set

God's perfect light before each man?

How shall yon speak save that decree Which fraught with perfect light above

Revealed by Jesus in prophecy And known to all as perfect Love?

Yes, when ye mount that starry way, When the blest of the world shall see,

Lo, even as triumph of the day, Love reveals its perfect potency.
