"It is up to man to purify the sparks out of the things and beings he meets day by day, and raise them to ever higher rungs, to ever higher births, from mineral to plant, from plant to animal, from animal to human until the holy spark can return to its origin. If you accomplish this, it is as if you had liberated a king’s son from captivity"
