Science of Mind

"Evolution is better than Revolution. New Thought Library's New Thought Archives encompass a full range of New Thought from Abrahamic to Vedic. New Thought literature reflects the ongoing evolution of human thought. New Thought's unique inclusion of science, art and philosophy presents a dramatic contrast with the magical thinking of decadent religions that promulgate supersticions standing in the way of progress to shared peace and prosperity." ~ Avalon de Rossett

sensations, physical feelings exclusively; as passions, intellectual feelings exclusively, though only a part of them reach the intensity indicated by the term; and as affections, the higher, the moral emotions exclusively. That, however, which is especially confusing in the language of the emotions, is the different states included under one word, for instance, love. We love the food that pleases us, we love the wealth that gratifies desire, the scenery that delights the taste, the person whose character meets the approval of our moral sense. We have occasion, therefore, to put feelings covered by the same word, into entirely distinct classes, and to regard love as an appetite, a passion, or an affection, according to its several objects. The word now shows a decided tendency to withdraw from the lower field, and take up its abode in the higher one.
