Around the Year with Emmet Fox - 30 December 2010

All the old traditions tell us that there is more than one path to the great Goal. Just as there is more than one road up every great mountain, and yet all roads meet at the top, so in the spiritual quest there are several roads, all of which lead in due season to the one great End.

There is the path of knowledge. True knowledge of divine things is one of the appointed paths to attainment; but that path is by no means for everyone. And there is the pathway of action - of organized activity - and the worlds needs this too; but this again usually calls for a special gift, and special circumstances in which to apply it. And there are others.

The shortest and the easiest pathway of all is the pathway of Love. It is the one pathway that is open to all, irrespective of what their personal conditions or circumstances may be. For everyman, everywhere, the true attainment awaits through the yoga of Love, for yoga means union and it is your union with God that makes the attainment possible.

There is no fear in love; but Perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment... (1 John 4:18)

...God is Love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him (1 John 4:16)
