The Mystery
Short Quotes
"[T]he Mystery—the transference of Knowledge and the reuniting of ancient bonds—is something that is beyond the intellectual understanding of anyone. It must be experienced.
"[T]he Mystery will exceed your understanding, always. When you can be immersed in the Mystery, you can represent the Mystery."
- GCS, pp. 87-88, 113
Long Quotes
The Mystery is the source of everything important.
All the great inventions and contributions,
The great relationships,
The great experiences,
They all come from the Mystery,
Who you are,
Why you are here,
What is calling you,
Your greater association,
Your destiny with certain people in the world,
Your ability to find your way
While everyone around you
Is sleeping, dreaming and unresponsive.
This is a journey you must take
Or your life will be a troubled dream
And no more.

Its Source is beyond the physical reality,
For who you are is beyond the physical reality.
Where you are going ultimately is beyond the physical reality,
But you are meant to be here,
For you have been sent here for a purpose.
That is the Mystery.

People do not see, they do not hear. They are strangers to themselves. And their native skills of discerning the environment, for many, have been lost and are undeveloped.
This makes the Messenger’s task more difficult. He must carry the Mystery, for the Revelation is beyond the realm of the intellect and certainly is not conditioned by people’s expectations, beliefs or comprehension.

"Entering the Mystery takes great faith—faith in yourself, faith in Knowledge and faith in the Greater Power of the universe that has sent you here. This faith is necessary at the outset. It is the thing that you need before real certainty can be developed and relied upon on a consistent basis. Here you learn to rely upon the Mystery and not upon tangible things. Here you ask the Mystery to give you that which you need in the tangible world rather than asking the tangible world to give you what you need to function in the world of Mystery."
