H. P. Blavatsky
Hast thou attuned thyself to the suffering of humanity, O candidate for light?
H. P. Blavatsky
Spiritualism is but a baby now, an unwelcome stranger, whom public opinion, like an unnatural foster mother, tries to crush out of existence.
H. P. Blavatsky

Never allow any unnecessary or vain thought to occupy your mind. This is more easily said than done. You cannot make your mind a blank all at once.
