Will
<p>The Arcane Teaching uses the term “Cosmic Will” to indicate the creative activities of Spirit. Spirit is the essence of the Cosmic Will—the Cosmic Will is the outward activities of Spirit. But Spirit and the Cosmic Will are the same thing—in its the inner and outer aspects. By “Will” is not meant that human quality called “will”—this latter is but the mental quality which calls forth Will. Will is the principle of all activity—it is activity in itself. Life is one of the manifestations of the Cosmic Will. Will is the “lifeness” of Life. Will is the outward aspect of Spirit.</p>

With Will as the great creative power in the Cosmos—what is not possible to him who understands the Art of Willing.</p>
