Only a few specially gifted persons can rise superior to the influence of their professed Creeds and find absolute unanimity in the truths propagated by all great faiths.
Dharma, the mental virtue, is then in the third stage; the human intellect becomes able to comprehend the divine magnetism, the source of all electrical forces on which the creation depends for its existence.
Chapter 1 The Gospel SUTRA 1 “Parambrahma (Spirit or God) is infinite, complete, without start or end. It is one, undividable Being.” The Eternal Father, God, Swami Parambrahma, is the only Real Substance, Sat, and is all in all in the universe.
SUTRA 2 “In Parambrahma is the source of all knowing and love, the root of all power and joy.” Prakriti or Nature of God The Almighty Force, Sakti, or in other words the Eternal Joy, Ananda, which produced the world; and the Omniscient feeling, Chit, which makes this World conscious, demonstrate the Nature, Prakriti, of God the Father.

SUTRA 5 “The Omniscient Love aspect of Parambrahma is Kutastha Chaitanya. The individual Self, being Its manifestation, is one with It.”
Kutastha Chaitanya, the Holy Ghost, Purushottama The manifestation of Premabijam Chit (Attraction, the Omniscient Love) is Life, the Omnipresent Holy Spirit, and is called the Holy Ghost, Kutastha Chaiianya or Purushottama, which shines on the Darkness, Maya, to attract every portion of it toward Divinity. But the Darkness, Maya, or its individual parts,” Avidya the Ignorance, being repulsion itself, cannot receive or comprehend the Spiritual Light, but reflects it.
SUTRA 6 “The Atom, under the influence of Chit (universal knowledge) forms the Chitta or the Consciousness of mind, which when spiritualized is called Buddhi, Intelligence. Its opposite is Manas, Mind, in which lives the self with Ahamkara, Ego, the idea of separate existence.”
