Our true self is an inward light, springing up from within.


"The ever-advancing POSSIBLE self is a Divine revelation to us. It is an inward light, not shining from some foreign world, but springing up within, because the life of God is an inherent and elemental part of our being, and this Life is the inward light . . . It is literally closer than breathing - never far enough away to be near. The truth is that our souls open inwardly into God's Spirit . . . the Divine center . . ."

Rufus Jones,
Quaker scholar and writer
