| It can be
safely said that that examination must e designed for man (human beings) only. The angels
need not take such an examination, which would be superfluous, and the beasts are unable
to take such an examination, which would be useless. It is only for man who is
between angels and beasts. If man takes such an examination seriously, care fully,
and daily, he will move toward the path of angelic hope. If, on the other hand, he ref uses to take such an examination, he will be
drifting, knowingly or unknowingly, to the dismal world of beasts. Hence this examination
is the most important of all, because it is crucial, decisive, and indeed, fateful. There
have been no other examinations like it for all once the beginning of Creation. This most
mankind is important examination is called self-examination. |
