Worlds Are Created
Through Sacrifice
Every religion ha taught ' the law of
sacrifice; Christianity especially put ror
Wiird the lesson of self-sacrifice aa Us
central theme, ' the great' teaching and
practice of its Founder and Exemplar.
All sacrificial rites or act whatsoever
are copies, in but lesser or larger meas
ure, of that one great sacrifice of Oud
by which tho worlds were created 'and
by which, they are maintained that vol
untary giving of His life, that voluntary
limiting of Himself In matter in order . to
produce. and sustain many separate lives.
This -was the theme- of the lectur- -by
Miss' Isabel Hoi brook at Theosophlcal
hall. Bee building, Hunilay evening.
Sacrifice is the law of evolution, but
It IS" imposed upon the lower creature
a -compulsory and act through itrlfo
and continual combats since the ilgn qf
matter la not in "giving", but in "re
ceiving." When man ideitifles himself with the
life Instead of the form, then and then
only ran the element o pain In sacrifice
be gotten rid of. That wa the lesson of
th Christ.
