Book 5. May

Yes.... For some time now I’ve been very much feeling your presence.

Ahh!... As for me, I always feel you’re there, as though you were clinging to me, so each time something is accomplished, it is naturally passed on to you.

“Each cellular nucleus holds in its chromosomes the plan of the entire organism....

This organization could best be compared to that of an ideal human community in which each member would be conscious of the whole community and at the same time of his own intelligent personal function within the community.

(Werner Schupbach)
