Serving New Thought is pleased to present
Horatio W. Dresser's
Education and the Philosophical Ideal
"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

that the wisdom of the past is not neglected. He must therefore live with the ages; at the same time no one should understand the present more thoroughly than he. His is the privilege to be universal while all other men are specialists. Thus his ideal is the acme of all intellectual and spiritual education, and training in philosophy is the best discipline which the entire educational world affords. The broader his life, the profounder his intellect, the richer his spiritual experience, the more is he capable of realising his high ideal. Although deprived of any opportunities for service, none most have so great a heart, none must more truly lead the life of the Spirit; and there is rich compensation in the fact that he may inspire thousands of workers, that the work of the thinker is the most fundamental, in a sense the most original work in a generation. He who is accounted worthy of this ideal is in fact most fortunate of men. Fortunate, too, that man who has at least dedicated his life to it, who aspires to that divine communion which makes possible the interpretation of God to man.
