Aphorism - 170, 171
170Mahomeds mission was necessary, else we might have ended by thinking, in the exaggeration of our efforts at self-purification, that earth was meant only for the monk and the city created as a vestibule for the desert.
171When all is said, Love and Force together can save the world eventually, but not Love only or Force only. Therefore Christ had to look forward to a second advent and Mahomeds religion, where it is not stagnant, looks forward through the Imams to a Mahdi.
Love alone as preached by Christ failed to transform man. Force alone as preached by Mahomed did not transform man, far from it.
That is why the consciousness which is at work to transform mankind, unites Force with Love, and the One who must realise this transformation will come on earth with the Power of Divine Love.
