One of the doctrinal sources of Mind‐cure is the four Gospels; another is Emersonianism or New England transcendentalism; another is Berkeleyan idealism; another is spiritism, with its messages of “law” and “progress” and “development”; another the optimistic popular science evolutionism of which I have recently spoken; and, finally, Hinduism has contributed a strain.

Quotes with HINDUISM (3)

Borrow what we need but rely principally upon our own senses, common sense and daily living experience.
