January 18 - Birthday of Louis Claude de Saint-Martin (1743)
"The only initiation which I preach and seek with all the ardour of my soul is that by which we may enter into the heart of God and make God’s heart enter into us, there to form an indissoluble marriage, which will make us the friend, brother and spouse of our Divine Redeemer. There is no other mystery to arrive at this holy initiation than to go more and more down into the depths of our being, and not let go till we can bring forth the living vivifying root, because then all the fruit which we ought to bear, according to our kind, will be produced within us and without us naturally."
- Theosophic Correspondence Letter CX.
"It is precisely on this account that the world fails to advance; its word is frittered on the external, never carried to the interior, where it can be joined with the living Word. Forcibly and painfully we must be ploughed, so to speak, by the Word of the Lord, to uproot all the thorns and briars which cover our field."
- De l’Esprit des Choses
"When a man comes to be regenerated in his thought, he will soon be so in his speech, which is the flesh and blood of thoughts; but when he is regenerated in his speech he will be so soon in the operation which is the flesh and blood of speech."
- Le Nouvel Homme
