Vital Resources (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Vital Resources<br><br>The phenomena of life is marvelous; and what we know of it is only of its phenomena. What is proposed in this volume, is to open a farther view into this phenomena, which view contemplates the setting forth, that man is endowed with the possession of a plurality of personality, through which, by the aid of favoring circumstances, surroundings and habits, and also by his inherent mental power, his active mental and physical constitution may be changed to a degree so as to secure a new lease of life with its blessings of health and happiness.<br><br>The author does not think it very bold in himself to make these apparently strange asseverations, because, if true, there is nothing in them more marvelous than is everywhere presented in the phenomena of nature, nor more unreasonable, when we consider certain facts already known; and also because truth, in contradistinction to error, is not determined by the amount of marvelousness which it inspires, but rather by the evidences brought to its support. And the author proposes, in order to show that they are true, to present such facts in the phenomena of life for the support of them, as are accepted in history; and also, make allusion to such as are universally recognized by the observations of mankind.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
