New Thought Common Sense

"Evolution is better than Revolution. New Thought Library's New Thought Archives encompass a full range of New Thought media from Abrahamic to Vedic reflecting the ongoing evolution of human thought. New Thought's unique inclusion of science, art and philosophy contrasts with 'old thought' Religion. Today's 'New Thought 3.0' teaches personal responsibility, self-development, human rights and compassionate action as essential spiritual paradigms." ~ Avalon de Rossett

The friend who saw these things asks nothing of me, not even belief; he is one who has studied the psychic questions of the day for many years from a purely critical and scientific standpoint; and he goes about his daily avocations like any other practical and sensible human being, and is not seeking for money or glory or a following of devotees. He says little, indeed, to any one of what he has been enabled to learn of matters called supernormal or spiritual. And only by an accident of similar tastes and interests and aspirations, the information of his latest and most interesting experience came to me.

Hundreds of my good friends will smile at my credulity for believing this man's vision to be more than the result of a disordered brain, or excited imagination.

Hundreds of the friends of Cyrus Field pitied those few deluded people who believed in his vision of an ocean cable.

Hundreds of the friends of Morse, and Franklin, and Marconi, and Edison have been "sorry" for the poor victims of "hallucinations," yet all these friends
