The way to Love and Inner Peace is through Forgiveness.



"Believe you can and you're halfway there." - Theodore Roosevelt
"If two of your friends are on the other side of a thick wall, you may not be able to recognize them by their voices. The wall prevents clear hearing. If you wish to recognize them, the wall must not remain between you and them. This is what we are now doing. In order to recognize the voice of truth, we are removing our psychological wall. For example, by removing traditional but false beliefs, we are able to hear the pure messages of our original nature."

They cannot tell us what it is like.

James Hervey Hyslop(1854- 1920) was a professor of logic and ethics and prominent psychical researcher. He was educated at Wooster College, Ohio (B.A., 1877), the University of Leipzig (1882-84), and Johns Hopkins University (Ph.D., 1877). He was one of the first American psychologists to connect psychology with psychic phenomena. He joined the philosophy department at Columbia University as a professor in ethics and logic, during which time he became deeply involved with psychical research. As early as 1888, in a skeptical frame of mind, he was brought for the first time into contact with the supernormal through the mediumship of Leonora Piper.
