The Eastern sage sits and smiles condescendingly at the unceasing action of the West. But this is arrogance in believing that God is found solely within man and therefore we do not have to be concerned with the actions of the material world. This arrogance is the result of centering exclusively on the Involutionary Inward Path to the Soul and Spirit within, which is not Godhood, even if the Spirit originally derives from God.
Action in evolution, not inaction, defines the Evolutionary Outward Path to Godhood. Yet we do not smile condescendingly on the inaction of the Eastern sage as they do us. We include the Inward Path in the Twofold Path of the Evolutionary Christian Church. We do not set up a Great Spiritual Blockade against material evolution, because material evolution is the real vehicle by which we attain Godhood. Action, not merely inaction, is the means of applying religion.
