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.
