Two kinds of Grace...


Grace is of two kinds.

The ordinary, better known, and inferior kind is that which is found on the Long Path.

It flows from the Overself in automatic response to intense faith or devotion, expressed during a time of need.

It is a reaction to seeking for help.

The rarer and superior kind is found on the Short Path.

It arises from self-identification with the Overself or constant recollection of it.

There is no ego here to seek help or to call for a Grace which is necessarily ever present in the Overself.
