The Astral World—Higher Occult Powers

The Astral World—Higher Occult Powers - Clairvoyance, Spiritism, Mediumship, and Spirit-Healing Fully Explained

The relations of man to his God have occupied the first minds of every age, but without rendering those relations so understandable to the mass of mankind as to be admitted as true. It has been evident to many, although not to all, that some minds so engaged have been inspired to write beyond the current knowledge of their day, indeed to foretell truths which could only be recognized as such after centuries of progression.
