The » that they slander the reality and daily disgrace the spiritua r that they claim to serve. The second is, they prevent the human _ Soul from attaining the truth by leading him astray into the avenues of Personal opinions thet they are pavning off as facts. Day after day individuals and organizations come to me, trying to ess me with the value of their ideas and the divine inspirations Mind their cults. They express themselves fluently on subjects they thing about and then wonder how it is my soul is so clouded that ‘see the divine wisdom of their soul or the magnificance of opinion. Their whole scheme is an idea or maybe their interpre- tion of someone else's idea. They finally decide that I am wrong. Maybe I am, but out of the hundreds of opposing doctrines it is rather delightful to find a wrong one. None of them will admit that they are in error--that is to the publice-but if the public were mind readers they might discover something. When the teachers disagree, what_shall the pupils do? If someone would find an answer to this question, the Metaphysical problem would be solved, and several other occult problems with it. Joseph's coat of many colors must have had something to do with New Thought. But what is the poor student to do when each teacher that comes along is inspired by the same God, or at least claims so, each teaching a dif- ferent message, each claiming theirs to be better than any of the others, no two agreeing even on fundamentals and each claiming to teach the truth. When he does make a choice, he has nothing to guide him but speculation and some inducement of the most questionable spir- ituel nature. Is there any wonder that mere men's heads go round and round and that they finally go insane while trying to unravel the mystic maze that claims to lead to heaven but 1s much more often a blind alley leading into someone's pocket. The world is filled with these wanderers, who do not know which way to turn. They have taken the only possible course, they have cut away from all these dissentkg factions and are stumbling along as best they can. Their lives have been absolutely ruined and thoy are far worse off than they were in the days when they were still in the orthodox churches. They wander around like lost souls waiting for a God who never existed,save in someone's opinion, to care for them and protect them. And society as a mass must play the part of a God of another man's mind and care for these poor souls who have been robbed of their earthly possessions and individual minds. ; This is not written in the spirit of criticism but is a plain exprer- sion of facts as they are. Every day they como to us groping in spir!
