Man cannot possibly desire to smoke, for man is pure and holy ; man is not in bondage to any physical desire, man is spiritual and divine; man cannot be in bondage to any habit, for man is free as Spirit is free. Man does absolutely what he wills, for all his desires are the activity of God’s will, the only will there is. There arc no physical desires, for all is Spirit and the manifestation of Spirit. Man is not material, man is spiritual, belonging wholly to God. There is no craving, man’s desires arc instantly fulfilled, he has instantly everything he needs, and is satisfied and peaceful. Matter has no power to satisfy man, God alone satisfies him, for there is no matter, all is Spirit and the mani­ festation of Spirit, the Principle of all purity and holiness. Man is spiritual and divine, and seeks and finds his delight in God. “ Thy comforts delight my soul” (Ps. 94 : 19).
