"My possibilities are as limitless as that Infinite in which I live and which lives in me."

PREFACE

THE preface to a book, to fulfill its purpose, should enlighten the reader somewhat as to the nature of the subject matter which is to follow. This book
is written solely as a response to hundreds of requests from persons wishing more complete information on various subjects, generally classified as metaphysics. This is not a course of lessons in metaphysics. It is not an attempt to change your thought; it is neither a subtle nor an obvious attempt at coercion. It is not a preachment against anything you may have ever done or may ever expect to do.
We have no controversies with anyone. As we claim freedom, so we extend its privileges to everyone else. We are studying the thought of the ages, and are satisfied with nothing less than Truth . . . that truth which proves itself to be really true. We cannot live by proxy or attain by pretense. We are dealing with real laws and actual forces, when we deal with mental and spiritual laws, and they cannot be fooled. From our own endeavor will come our own reward,
