Spiritual superiority only sees the individual. But alas, ordinarily we human beings are sensual and, therefore, as soon as it is a gathering, the impression changes -- we see something abstract, the crowd, and we become different. But in the eyes of God, the infinite spirit, all the millions that have lived and now live do not make a crowd, He only sees each individual.

Summary

This quote highlights the contrast between human perception and divine perspective. It suggests that spiritual superiority considers each person as an individual with unique worth. However, human beings are often driven by their senses, which can lead them to view a gathering or a crowd as something abstract and lose sight of the individuals within it. In contrast, God, who is portrayed as an infinite spirit, sees every person as distinct and significant. The quote encourages the recognition of the value of each individual amidst the tendency to see them as part of a faceless mass.
