Why develop psychical sensitiveness in order to become a medium for the use of all the undeveloped spirits around you—who are like the people you see when standing on the busy street corner of any city? Why not seek first the Kingdom of Heaven and try to express its beauty and love in your daily life, and thus gain the protection of the Angels from the negative and degenerate spirits that dwell in the lower stratas of the earth’s atmosphere? —From “INSPIRATION,” by Walter De Voe. —————— ==== IMMORTALITY ==== A chrysalis lay on the earth forgot; \\ A butterfly mounted toward Heaven afar— \\ Whirling and twirling in golden light, \\ Gaily flitting from flower to flower. It kissed the cheek of a baby boy, \\ Who eagerly grasped the glittering toy. \\ With color celestial it flitted in joy to fairer lands; \\ While a baby cried o’er a butterfly crushed in its hands. \\ —From The Mystic Garden. {{ :10-49.jpg? |}} ---- //⥳ [[mediumship|previous page]] // | // [[prove_the_spirits|next page]] ⥴ //
