A sense of personal meaning and tradition is common to all of us, although this meaning may be different for each individual. It develops with us from birth and without it we would feel a sense of isolation or dislocation. Therefore, throughout our lives we continually seek the security of this meaning. This is also to speak of the continuity of certain principles and of the sacred forms which are the means whereby these principles are communicated and the teaching of the tradition actualized for mankind. We always search for a stronger meaning within our lives to that which each individual can identify with.
