The same treatment, followed by the same result, may be applied to the Infinity of Space, and we again see that all Space is comprised in the Here; it is only by the conditions of our existence in this physical universe, _insisting_ on our analysing everything in Time and Space that Motion or Change become the very basis of our Consciousness. We have seen that the Idea of Infinity is a necessary result of our finite senses, that the only Reality is the Spiritual, the Here and the Now; that the Riddle of the Universe is not to be solved by the _Intellect_ but by that method which is employed by those who are earnestly following the "Quest of the Grail"--namely, by realising that our True Personality or Transcendental Ego is an emanation from the Absolute; that we are one-with Him, and that it is by following the old Hellenic command "[Greek: Gnothi seauton]" (Know thyself)--namely, by _Introspection_, that we can hope to attain to the understanding of what is the Reality of Being.
