Symbol 4
A Summary Explanation of Symbol No. 4 - The Road towards Light
Living beings evolve from primitive forms of life to higher ones. At a certain stage the religious principle emerges in the mental structure of the living being. This principle underlies not only a religious way of being, but also materialism, all politics and all other kinds of prominent forms of consciousness. This principle is nourished by the principle of world redemption, and guides people to an understanding of the solution to the mystery of life.
