A New Heaven And A New Earth ebook

A New Heaven And A New Earth; or, The Way to Life Eternal, by Charles Brodie Patterson, bears the sub-title, "Thought Studies of the Fourth Dimension." Mr. Patterson believes that "death, as now understood, will cease to be, and that the time will come when the highly developed man will have the power to lay down or take up his life through a conscious knowledge of the laws of eternal being and the direct application of these laws to his own life." He believes in spiritualism, and he says that vibration begins in the center of the soul and moves out in harmony with the laws of all etheric vibrations, and that when etheric vibrations rule, man's life will be as eternal as etheric vibrations are, and that we will go from one octave of life to another. He calls love the great white light made up of the seven prismatic colors of faith, hope, joy, peace, power, gentleness, and goodness—"against such there is no law." Many arresting things are said about concentration, the law of reciprocity, etc. The oneness with God and the power of thought suggests the principles of all the so-called New Thought movements. It is a book of serious advance thought, well written and of peculiar and timely interest. The theories advanced cannot fail to attract the attention of those who are in sympathy with esoteric thought along these lines.
