If anything will ever show it, the comparative study of the world's religious mysticism will show that truth, grace, spirit do not come through the historic Jesus or the historic Krishna alone, nor through the historic Christianity or the historic Hinduism alone. They can be confined to a single religious dispensation only by those who refuse to make this study or, studying, refuse to discard bias and divest themselves of prejudice while doing so. Today all who study widely and honestly know as clearly as can be that God's message has been here all the time, however impaired or imperfect its forms may be and however different his messengers may be.
