the so-called
"unpardonable sin" is the sin that men and women commit against
_themselves_; for the most holy of all ghosts, or spirits, is that
portion of God--the universal Spirit--embodied in their own separate
personalities, and it is only "unpardonable" in that it sets the soul
back from its possible and intended progress toward its ultimate
perfection.
REINCARNATION.
The objections to the acceptance of a belief in the law of
reincarnation are based upon the imperfect teaching, and the consequent
inadequate understanding of the laws controlling such experiences.
Some of the reasons for disbelief are utterly illogical. For instance,
one view is this: "I never want to come back to this earth after I once
leave it." The fact is, that there could be no return to today's
recognized conditions of life. If one were to return to this planet
and become reembodied, he would find himself in some other country, and
under such entirely changed conditions that he would be totally
unconscious of being on the same world where he had formerly lived.
Then, again, the law of vibration is so immanent in material things,
the changes are so constantly undermining conditions and setting up
quite others that if one were to return in one hundred or even in fifty
years, it could not be the same, and that person could not be in any
way subject to the same conditions, or to the same experiences.
Furthermore, it is nature's wise and provident law that there is hardly
ever any memory of any previous life here. Still, after the soul has
passed through many lives and has accumulated great knowledge, a vast
consciousness which can not be laid aside, there come to individual
souls faint gleams of memories of past experiences which, if heeded or
understood, might become helpful and instructive, if not altogether
consoling.
There has never been a time when the needs of humanity have so reached
the great spiritual overlords of this planet as at present. Or, that
those needs have been so responded to by the return to earth of wise,
and godlike spirits as now. Many of these have sought to approach
humanity through personal reembodiment in the flesh. It would be well
for the world if, instead of cramming the brains of children with
effete ideas and superstitions, the messages of these wise ones could
be listened to and heeded.
A thorough understanding of the laws of reembodiment, so far as we can
know them, entirely refutes the
