Summary

This quote suggests that God is present in two realms: heaven and within the hearts of those who possess humility and gratitude. It implies that while God can be found in the expanse of the divine realm, there is also a divine essence within individuals who demonstrate qualities of meekness and thankfulness. It highlights the idea that God's presence can be experienced not only through traditional religious practices but also through one's inner state of mind and character.

The primary function of myth is to validate an existing social order. Myth enshrines conservative social values, raising tradition on a pedestal. It expresses and confirms, rather than explains or questions, the sources of cultural attitudes and values.
