Commentary for:
Every soul has a definite task, and the fulfillment of one's individual purpose can alone lead one aright; illumination comes to one through the medium of one's own talent.

It is not necessary to turn the merchant into a musician or to compel the artist to be a mechanic. Perfection of any task leads to perfection of quality, and perfection of quality leads to realization of perfection in essence. This is the task of every soul together with the need to praise God every step of the way. All the metaphysics and theology are but the forms—higher or lower—with which teachings are clothed, but the teachings are Life itself.
