"And the next most natural and fruitful movement after such a personal discovery of abiding Reality, such a tranfiguration of life, is always back towards our fellow-[wo/]men; to learn more from them, to unite with them, to help them--anyhow to reaffirm our solidarity with them. The great men and women of the Spirit, then, either use their new power and joy to restore existing institutions to fuller vitality, as did the successive regenerators of the monastic life, such as St. Bernard and St. Teresa and many Sufi saints; or they form new groups, new organisms which they can animate, as did St. Paul, St. Francis, Kabir, Fox, Wesley, Booth. They one and all feel that the full robust life of the Spirit demands some incarnation, some place in history and socal outlet, and also some fixed discipline and tradition."
From Evelyn Underhill's The Life of the Spirit and the Life of Today (1922).
