The Inner Life 1933

THE HERALD OF THE NEW AGE

He looked so much more substantial or materialized than the gentlemen of the church experience. I have wondered what was his mission and if he would have spoken had I addressed him, for he stood looking at me as I looked at him—then he disappeared. Could he have been a Master?

The Hindu who came may have been a Teacher or a Guide or Helper who probably wanted you to see him. Had you spoken to him you would probably have received a reply explaining his presence.

My husband phoned me to come down town one day and about a block from where I was to meet him, when I stood still with amazement. Jesus stood a few feet away from me. The next thing I knew He stood right before me. I drew back in utter astonishment. When I stood erect again I seemed to be standing inside of Him—is the only way I can express it. For several days a joy indescribable possessed me.
