The mind cannot escape them. Just such compelling power is in the law of sympathetic vibration. Once started on its ascending ladder, it is impossible to stop, until we find ourselves confronted with energies inconceivably great and inconceivably fine.

Men are vaguely conscious of an impending crisis in the life of humanity.
However this may be, if the trend of progress is to be in the future the same as it has been in the past, it is man's inevitable destiny to grasp and appropriate higher and higher conditions of an energy which at each remove becomes more spiritualized in its expression.
