Absolute
The term "absolute," in its true sense and essential meaning, implies an apartness; separation; independence; self-existence; self-sufficiency; supreme; unfettered; free. The "essence of the essence" of its meaning is to be found in the words "free, independent, self-sufficient."
And when used in connection with the word "law," it represents the Supreme Power, depending upon no other power; its own sovereign; and the ruler of all else, without restriction. This conception we have in The Absolute Law, which is the Indepepndent, Free, Sovereign Lord of All.
...while the idea of “Absolute” means fixed, complete independent state or condition; “Infinite” means
a state of endless and unlimited possibilities of manifestation and expression.
“Absolute” means, in its original and essential significance: “Unbound; Free; Unfettered; are a number of derivative meanings, but the above definition gives the essential meaning of the term—and that meaning may be reduced to one word: “free.”
In other words, Absoluteness means Perfect Freedom—Sovereignty—Supremacy. There can be nothing higher than Absoluteness. There can be nothing over Absoluteness. There can be no Power beyond Absoluteness. The “Law” of a thing, or things, is the sovereign power that exercises a control over it. And an Absolute Law is the supreme, highest and unqualified Power over all things. Therefore is the Absolute called Law—therefore is The Law called Absolute. The
term, Absolute Law is the highest and most positive term in the language, expressing Power and Control. There can be nothing that can oppose such Power; or run contrary to It, or overrule
It, or “break” It. It is Power Absolutely Supreme.
Power belongs to the Absolute, and is not one of the attributes of Infinity.
The absolute can never become the Relative. The Law can never separate Itself into bits of "You and I." Nor is the Cosmos to be regarded as a nightmare dream; meditation; illusion; delusion; or imagination; of the Absolute, as some of the philosophical schools of India, and the pessimistic schools of the West, would have men believe, against all the natural intuition of the race. The Law does not dream, meditate, imagine, or "think"--neither is it deluded, or subject to illusion, delusion or "ignorance," as some have taught. These are but qualities belonging to beings--the Law is above beings, and even above Being. To hold otherwise is to degrade It, and to deny Its Absoluteness.
