The same power that upholds nature, is working also in man.... The laws that govern the heart’s action, regulating the flow of the current of life to the body, are the laws of the mighty Intelligence that has the jurisdiction of the soul. From Him all life proceeds. Only in harmony with Him can be found its true sphere of action. For all the objects of His creation the condition is the same—a life sustained by receiving the life of God, a life exercised in harmony with the Creator’s will. To transgress His law, physical, mental, or moral, is to place one’s self out of harmony with the universe.... {FLB 164.5}

Den samme kraft som opretholder naturen, virker også i mennesket. . . . De love der hersker i hjertets motiver, regulerer livsstrømmen til legemet, er love af mægtig Intelligens, som har sjælens dømmekraft. Fra Ham udgår al liv. Kun i harmoni med Han kan dets sande handlingssfære eller virkekreds findes. For hele formålet med Hans skabelse, er vilkårene de samme – et liv opretholdt ved at modtage Guds liv, et liv der udøves i harmoni med Skaberens vilje. Overtrædes Hans lov, fysisk, åndeligt eller moralsk er dette at bringe sit selv ud af harmoni med universet. . . .
