and be directed toward the
maintenance of a balanced world--a world in which Love and Wisdom are
united.

We are always fearful of changes. The bat-like eyes of the multitude
are blinded by the light of the sun. Why cannot we trust the Cosmic
Law which has always given us a better ideal in the place of the
decadent one? If we prefer to use the word God, then let us say why
cannot we trust God?

In the external world, then, the idea that a part of this sphere is
inherently antagonistic to another; that men are born enemies; that
the female and the male must forever struggle for supremacy--all these
ideas are disappearing. "Unity" is the password to the coming
civilization. If then we will accept this conclusion and apply it to
our individual selves, we will conclude that no function of the human
organism should merit disapproval; or be regarded as an enemy. Before
we can arrive at a balanced and sane world without, we must come to a
balanced and sane state within our own organism.

We must know that the sex function, the most vital of all the various
expressions of life in the individual body as well as in the social
body and the racial body, is not an enemy with whom we must maintain
unceasing warfare, but a wise and trustworthy friend with whom we may
safely co-operate, neither repressing this vital force until we have
conquered it and dragged it like a bleeding captive behind our
chariot-wheels, nor should we like the drug-slave become lost in the
clutches of an abnormal appetite.

Indeed, as the forces of life become transmuted from the physical
appetites to the finer, and interior desires of the soul,
abnormalities and perversions of sex-force will be impossible.

Sex-force is, at the Center of Being, unpolluted. It is pure, perfect
and harmonious. It is divine. Why? Because it is bi-une; it is
balanced.

In our present-day lopsided civilization, we find that nearly every
one is lop-sided, and unbalanced. Alienists declare that almost every
man and woman has some hobby or mania. Doubtless this is true. An age
of specialization would incline the race toward "lopsidedness." But
the source of Life is balanced; if we come to the place where we
consciously unite with that interior source we will no longer be
unbalanced, because the central source of life is Sex, and Sex is, at
the center of the radius, bi-une, which is to say balanced. There is
no chance for sex supremacy, for domination, or dispute, or jealousy.
