LEMITATIONS OF 1--2

The New Thought view of profanity, ns, set forth by the esteemed and instruc tive Nautilus," of Holyoke, the organ of all the New Thoughters:

There is a-littie word which legins with "d" and ends with "n" that is of mighty spiritual power when used for: yourself auit used für guurseif alune to make your soul know that all power that exists is within your soul, and that there is nothing outside of your soul which can in any way interfere with your own soal power. If you use this word in condemnation of others or in expressing your opinion about them or to them, certainly does a lot of harm to you and not a thing to the others. But, if you use is for yourself in an idealised way to help you recognise your own soul. power it becomes a God-word of spirit power helping you to free your soul from a thousand little devils of fear-beliefs is powers outside yourself.
