Ella Wheeler Wilcox's

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

And so why may not all my doubting friends, if they live long enough, be forced to acknowledge here on earth their own lack of judgment in declaring the reports of the "advance guards" along the spiritual picket line to be delusions?

It is a curious phase of the mortal mind which causes it to so vehemently oppose beliefs which are of the utmost importance to human happiness and human development.

There is no geographical fact --- no possible discovery of any other continent on earth --- of such vast import to humanity as the proof of realms beyond, or outside of, this earth plane.

Should the discovery of a wonderful and fertile continent at the North Pole be made, it could only interest us for a limited period of time; one hundred years from now no one of us would remain to enjoy its products or be entertained by its sights.

But the absolute knowledge and convincing proof that other continents existed beyond the earth, and the ability to see them with spiritual vision whenever we so desired, would render time impotent and take the sting, indeed, from death.

Personally, I do not imagine my friend saw "heaven," for I do not believe in any one locality in the further lands which bears that name. But I believe "In my Father's house are many mansions," and in my Father's universe are many continents and cities. And I think my friend saw one of the many. I have no doubt it was a spiritual city, inhabited by spiritual beings, and that innumerable others exist in space --- cities beautiful and unbeautiful, on higher and lower
