As an immediate continuation of the analyses of "the highest fire" in the third volume of this work, we will here dwell a little on the very highest principle of the experience of life, namely that principle through which the spirit of God directly pervades all existing living beings. If the spirit of God did not pervade living beings, they could not possibly exist. If this were the case, no form of consciousness, creation, manifestation or experience of life whatsoever could possibly exist. Indeed, the universe itself would be a total impossibility without the eternally all-pervasive divine element that reveals itself as the eternal spirit of God.
