Martinus: Livets Bog, vol. 3, sect. 983

983. So what is a "perspective"? A "perspective" is the relationship of the details of a sensory horizon to a centre. No living being can exist without constituting the absolute or fixed centre in its own sensory horizon or in its own mental image of life or existence. As the details in this horizon or this image of life cannot possibly exist without being in a certain balanced relationship to a centre, this centre will therefore constitute the point of absolute equilibrium from which the details can be judged. Any image, which in this case means any view, whose details have not been judged from their contact with the centre will be an untrue or false image. The "principle of perspective" thus forms the basis of every experience and creation of the absolute truth. We will therefore express this principle as "life substance no. 52".
