John Bascom's

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

As, however, I am zealous for the system, and have found critics easily overlooking points not forced upon their notice, I now invite attention to the clear definition given to the doctrine of the intuitions; to the care with which they are enumerated, with which their relations to each other are pointed out, and their constructive office in thought is assigned them; to the development of higher powers in connection with lower ones; and to the support which liberty receives from the spontaneity of the intellect. Herein are secured a certainty of conviction, a strength of defense, and a clearness of explanation, not otherwise attainable. The system lies in direct continuation of the Intuitive Philosophy, but is put upon advanced ground, in a form more self-sufficient and defensible than hitherto.
