### The Seven Words in the second-degree Ritual

*From a teaching session in Kristiania (Oslo), October 1913, no date given*

The seven words: *Form*, *Power*, *Number*, *Harmony*, *Word*, *Thought* and *I* should work like warmth and light within us. We should meditate on them individually, as if removed from the world. In order to progress, a person must truly believe that the abilities within him go beyond what he currently is. You may have faith in your soul, in its potential for development. Man can do more than he can do today; he will develop to achieve his goal.
