Excerpt from The Religion of the Spirit, in Modern Life
The main purpose is practical. It is hoped that this study of the subject will foster the type of religion for which it pleads. For the writer sincerely believes that there is a deep um der current of religious life in our age, a religious tendency actively seeking the modes of inter pretation and expression here advocated. Hence several of the chapters have been made partly dc votional in form, with the h0pe that they will be employed as aids to realisation and service. For this reason, also, much stress is put upon inner attitudes, with inner peace as the immediate goal in view, and eficient consciousness as the result. The inner centre or heart is emphasised even at the risk of seeming to neglect the social bearings of the religious life; since all spiritual growth of the profounder sort must begin within. Special ap peal is made to those who, dissatisfied with doc trines and religious institutions, still devoutly believe in the essentials of the spiritual life. Hence the style has been made somewhat general, and as untechnical as possible. Again, the book is constructive, not critical, save so far as every one must criticise who dwells upon the life rather than the doctrine. The book is primarily intended for those who are working their way into a larger, stronger, and more spiritual type of faith.
