The [[universe]] [[fact]] of [[God]]'s becoming [[man]] has forever [[changed]] all [[meanings]] and altered all [[values]] of human [[personality]]. In the true [[meaning]] of the [[word]], [[love]] connotes mutual regard of whole [[personalities]], whether [[human]] or [[divine]] or human and divine. [[Parts]] of the self may [[function]] in numerous ways—[[thinking]], [[feeling]], wishing—but only the [[co-ordinated]] [[attributes]] of the whole [[personality]] are [[focused]] in [[intelligent]] [[action]]; and all of these [[powers]] are [[associated]] with the [[spiritual]] endowment of the [[mortal]] [[mind]] when a [[human being]] [[sincerely]] and unselfishly [[loves]] another [[being]], human or divine.

All [[mortal]] [[concepts]] of [[reality]] are based on the [[assumption]] of the [[actuality]] of human [[personality]]; all [[concepts]] of superhuman [[realities]] are based on the [[experience]] of the human [[personality]] with and in the [[cosmic]] realities of certain [[associated]] [[spiritual]] [[entities]] and [[divine]] [[personalities]]. <u>Everything nonspiritual in human [[experience]], excepting [[personality]], is a means to an end. Every true [[relationship]] of mortal man with other [[persons]]—human or divine—is an end in itself.</u> And such [[fellowship]] with the [[personality]] of [[Deity]] is the [[eternal]] goal of [[Ascension career|universe ascension]].

The [[possession]] of [[personality]] identifies man as a [[spiritual]] [[being]] since the [[unity]] of selfhood and the [[self-consciousness]] of personality are [[endowments]] of the [[Superconsciousness|supermaterial world]]. The very [[fact]] that a mortal [[materialist]] can deny the existence of supermaterial realities in and of itself [[demonstrates]] the [[presence]], and indicates the working, of [[spirit]] [[synthesis]] and [[cosmic consciousness]] in his [[human]] [[mind]].
