THE. IDEAL MAN.
“More real than the individual man the ideal man surpasses each of us in his permeating personality which is transcendental,” said Dr Rabindranath Tagore in a recent speech. “The procession of his ideas following his great purpose ever moves across the path of .obstructing fact toward the perfected truth. We, the individuals, who have .our place in humanity as a whole may or may not be in conscious harmony with its purpose as a whole. We may even put obstacles in the pathway of true human progress, bringing down our own doom upon ourselves. This if it ever happens to us is irreligion. But true religion is gained by us when we consciously co-operate with the supreme man in us, and find our exceeding joy even through suffering and sacrifice on humanity’s behalf. Dor through our own love for the ideal man we are made'fonscious of a great love that radiates from the Supreme Spirit Himself.”
