SYNOPSIS: Upon completion of this class, Max Kappeler declared joyously: "I have just presented a comprehensive overview of the orderly unfoldment of spiritual consciousness." He realized that he had touched upon Mary Baker Eddy's statement: "This creation consists of the unfolding of spiritual ideas and their identities, which are embraced in the infinite Mind and forever reflected. These ideas range from the infinitesimal to infinity, and the highest ideas are the sons and daughters of God" (S&H 502:29).
CONTENTS:
Atomistic thinking
"Knowledge of a single fact, not known as related to any other, or of many facts not known as having any mutual relations or as comprehensible under any general law, does not reach the meaning of science" (Funk and Wagnall's dictionary)
"Principle is not to be found in fragmenting ideas" (S&H 302:1)
Linear thinking
Step-by-step ordered development; orderly arrangement according to a plan
Principle, God, reveals itself in an ordered way and must be understood and taught in an ordered way
"Thus the dawn of ideas goes on, forming each successive stage of progress" (S&H 506:13)
