Universal Spiritualism: Spirit Communion in All Ages Among All Nations (Classic Reprint)

Introduction In appearing once more before the public in a treatise undertaking to trace the history of human faith in immortality, and to present multiplied evidences which have led millions of intelligent people in all lands and ages to accept a spiritual philosophy of human existence, the writer is fiilly aware that much of the ground traversed in the following pages will be old to many but startlingly new to some. The present marvelous century is indubitably a period in which every religious doctrine and philosophical belief is being resolutely hunted to its source, and because such is the temper of the age there has arisen a numerous and influential cult among us, the members of which unhesitatingly claim that modem scientific students far from supporting materialistic conclusions such asP rof. Haeckel and other distinguished European Monists have reached, are hourly accumulating fresh proofs of the reality of our spiritual being and becoming increasingly assured that we are spiritual entities clothed for a brief while in mortal garments (or operating temporarily with material instruments) but destined ourselves to live on and work on through measureless ages of eternity, an ever widening vista of actualizable possibilities continuously opening before us. In selecting the title for the present volume the author has been actuated by a twofold motive ;first, to give to the public ,a work which describes its nature on its titlepage.
