yond all cavil, as it also, and it alone, can indicate the universal remedy. i
Most people are sick because there’s trouble in the love nature, and that trouble demoralizes the man or woman, destroys the family compact, and, disorganizing the foundations of society, engenders multitudinous hells on earth, and makes crime abound like locusts in a plague!
No power on earth but true clairvoyance, can either detect the causes at work productive of this domestic inharmony, or suggest the remedy.
But what is true clairvoyance? I reply, it is the ability, by selfeffort or otherwise, to drop beneath the floors of the outer world, and come up, as it were, upon the other side. We often see what we take to be sparks or flashes of light before us in the night; but they are not really what they seem, but are instantaneous penetrations of the veil that, pall-like, hangs between this outer world of Dark and Cold, and the inner realm of Light and Fire, in the midst of which it is embosomed, or, as it were, enshrouded ; and true clairvoyance is the lengthened uplifting of that heavy pall. It is not the insane raving of obsession, possession, of a puling sickly somnambule! It is not a lure, to win a man or woman from correct practices, or their ideas and standard of Viréue, —the Latin word for strength ; it is not a trap to bait one’s senses; nor the mere ability to make a sort of twilight introspection of your own or some one else’s corpus; nor a thing calculated to undermine the religious principles of any human being, nor to sap one’s moral nature in any way, or to exhaust the strength. But it is a rich and very valuable power, whose growth depends upon the due observance of the normal laws which underlie it. The price of power is obedience to law. If we would be strong, clearseeing, powerful, the rules thereof must be observed ; and the adept and acolyte alike be ever conscious that no earthly fame gained, or place reached, or wealth accumulated, will, or probably can, avail them or any human being, when, passed over the river of death, we take our places in the ranks of the vast armies of the dead, as they file by the Halls of Destiny, past the gates of God. What, then, is clairvoyance? Ireply: It is the r1gar which the seer reaches sometimes through years of agony ; by wading through oceans, as it were, of tears and blood; it is an interior unfoldment
