THE VALUE OF COMMUNICATION

We remarked that the knowledge that communication was possible should convince people of the truth of a future life, and of the need of right living while here.

"We believe that to be the greatest of all reasons for the coming together of the two worlds. The fact that life goes on without any miracle; that the human soul begins here as it left off there; that there is no wonderful transformation of character; that evil remains evil until the soul turns of its own accord toward the good; that sin does reap its own reward; that there is no hell except the one created by one's own self; that all, all, can rise through gloom, disappointment, sin and selfishness, to something high, holy and grand, and forever and forever live in happiness and usefulness: Are these things worth the thought of mortals?

"That is what we believe, and why we try to send the truths of this life to earth. The world needs a new inspiration. Is that inspiration here and now?"

'It is difficult to impress the world because of the stigma attached to spiritualism.'

"Has the world ever received a great truth at once?

"The world has come through a great darkness and ignorance. We here who began our conscious life on that planet, love it and wish to purify its thought, that mortals who still remain may rise to higher level, and heavenly love and kindness be the law of life. Think what that would mean!"
