Excerpt from Stellar Key to the Summer Land, Vol. 1

Under the impression that, with the positive philoso phers of our day, all clairvoyant testimony would be invalid, I am constrained, in order to prosecute the design of this work, to proceed wholly from an induc tive stand-point. There is an inherent force in truth, however, which carries it straight and triumphantly into man's understanding, if it is So fortunate as to be presented free from the cumbrous and imposing super stitions and embarrassing atheistic logic of the times. The august and harmonious temple of the universe, if entered by man with a reverential love of truth in his heart, is sure, though slowly, to open mansion after mansion, and glory after glory, to the welcomed visitor.
