Anyone who is not engaged in fortune-telling or similar methods of commercializing spiritual knowledge will, upon request, receive an application blank from the General Secretary, Rosicrucian Fellowship. When this blank is returned properly filled, he may admit the applicant to instruction in either or both correspondence courses. THE COST OF THE COURSE There are no fixed fees; no esoteric instruction is ever put in the balance against coin. At the same time, it cannot be given “_free_,” “_for nothing_,” for those who work to promulgate it must have the necessities of life. Type, paper, machinery and postage also cost money, and _unless you pay your part someone else must pay for you_. There are a few who cannot contribute, and who need these teachings as much or more than those who may take comfort from financial ease or affluence. If they make their condition known, they will receive as much attention as the largest contributors, but others are expected to contribute for their own good as well as for the good of the work. Remember, _a closed hand that does not give cannot receive_. INDEX Abstract Thought, _see_ Thought, World of, Region of Abstract Thought. Action, incentive to, 158.
