“The first duty of this circle will be to make known the existence
of mind, in this sphere, to the doubting of earth. The wisdom of
the circle will next be employed to abolish the errors of mind. No
sectarian organization will justify the revelation, which this circle
will disclose. All will stand amazed at the wonder. When the wonder
subsides, the condition of mind will be aided. Spirits will communicate
a system of ethics, adapted to the amelioration of human wrong. It will
be such as will melt the pure gold and remove the dross of corruption.
It will affect the fountain of works. It will inspire the heart. It
will correct the mind. It will remove the darkness. It will chase away
all fear. It will banish all doubt. It will fill the soul with good
things. It will enlarge the sympathy, and strengthen the love of mind.
When the fountain becomes changed, its issue will be pure. When the
issue becomes pure, the poor will become rich. When the poor become
rich, the equality of mind will be recognized. When the equality of
mind shall be recognized, the evils of human society will be overcome.
Nations will war no more. Brother will signify relation. Justice will
be acknowledged. Communities will form nations, and all nations one
family. Then sympathy will unite, and keep united the whole, and the
whole will strive to promote the good of the whole. Then, the good of
the whole will be regarded as the good of one, and the good of one as
the good of the whole. Selfishness will be extinguished by the wisdom
of universal love and philanthropy.
