              . . . The ever unknowable and incognizable Karana alone, the Causeless Cause of all causes, should have it shrine and altar on the holy and ever untrodden ground of our heart–invisible, intangible, unmentioned, save through “the still small voice” of our spiritual consciousness. … The Causeless Cause
