  • Be Ye Perfect
    BE YE PERFECT by Geoffrey Hodson CONTENTS Preface Part I FROM THE UNREAL TO THE REAL Chapter 1- The Babe Chapter 2- From Birth to Ten Years Old Chapter 3- The Principles of Education Chapter 4- From Ten to Twenty Years Chapter 5- From Twenty to Forty Years Chapter 6- From Forty to Eighty Years Part II THE THREE PATHS Chapter 7- The Way of Will Chapter 8- The Way of Knowledge Chapter 9- The Way of Love PREFACE THIS book is the second of the series containing the teachings received from the angel who inspired the volume entitled The Brotherhood of Angels and of Men. Though some may dismiss these present teachings as being entirely impracticable, I nevertheless offer them for consideration because I believe that they contain much that is of value and significance at the present time, when the changing race-consciousness is finding old methods of education inadequate, and new ones are everywhere sought. The errors and deficiencies of the book are due to my lack of competence to receive the angel's teaching in all its clarity and beauty; my hope is that gleams of the light of his wisdom may find their way through the darkness of my limitations and may serve to illumine the minds that are open to receive them; and particularly those responsible for the upbringing of the children of the new age. Only broad outlines are sketched in this volume, offered now at the dawn of a new day in the evolution of race-consciousness; more detailed teaching may be expected as the sun climbs towards his zenith, for then human and angel consciousness will be united to form one splendid channel for the power, the wisdom, and the knowledge of That which is their common source.

  • The Inner Side of Church Worship by Father Geoffrey Hodson
    The Inner Side Of Church Worship by Father Geoffrey Hodson FOREWORD by Archbishop Frank W. Pigott CATHOLIC Christians claim that the Church, with its threefold ministry tracing spiritual descent by the laying on of hands from the earliest Apostles of Our Lord, its seven sacraments or means of grace and its elaborate ceremonial, is a Divine Society; that is to say, it is a body corporate which is ensouled by the life of the Lord Himself; or, changing the metaphor without in any way changing the sense, it is an apparatus, a piece of intricate mechanism, by means of which grace or spiritual benediction is brought from on high and distributed far and wide on the Lord's people here in this world 'in the body pent '. It is a high claim to make and, indeed, an unique claim; there does not seem to be any other society or organization in the world which makes quite such a claim as that. Yet the Catholic Church makes that claim unflinchingly and has been making it for something like two thousand years. It is worth while examining the basis of such a claim. What are the grounds on which Catholic Christians for so long a time have dared to claim that their Church is a Divine Society, and still make the claim? Briefly they are three. First, there is tradition. Since the very beginning the belief that the Lord gives Himself to His people in His church by the operation of the Holy Spirit has been held by Catholic Christians and handed on from generation to generation.

  • The Miracle of Birth
    THE MIRACLE OF BIRTH A Clairvoyant Study of Prenatal Life by GEOFFREY HODSON First Published 1929 TO MY GODCHILD HEATHER AND HER PARENTS WITHOUT WHOM THIS BOOK COULD NOT HAVE BEEN WRITTEN "Uplift the women of your race till all are seen as queens, and to such queens let every man be as a king, that each may honour each, seeing the other's royalty. Let every home, however small, become a court, every son a knight, every child a page. Let all treat all with chivalry, honouring in each their royal parentage, their kingly birth; for there is royal blood in every man; all are the children of the King." "The Brotherhood of Angels and of Men." INTRODUCTION At the time when the crying need for the reduction of maternal and infant mortality is at last receiving some attention the publication of this book is most opportune. Socrates taught that "the beginning is the most important part of any work, especially in dealing with anything young and tender". In our day Sir Frederick Truby King is pointing out that if racial health is to be improved the first eighteen months (nine pre-natal, nine post-natal) are the most important. More and more is it being realised that the foundations of physical, emotional and mental health are laid before birth, and this book throws an interesting light on the laying of these foundations. Studies such as these help towards the better understanding of the miracle of birth and so foster that respect for motherhood which is surely the mark of truly civilised communities.

  • Thus Have I Heard by Geoffrey Hodson
    THUS HAVE I HEARD By Geoffrey Hodson GODSPEED I AM happy to have the privilege, as on a former occasion, of bidding Godspeed to an offering from Geoffrey Hodson to the world. His life is dedicated to kindliness, to helpfulness, and he has the good fortune of being a link with non-human agencies animated like himself by a practical spirit of goodwill. Thus equipped, Geoffrey Hodson adds this further record of conclusions to which he has so far come regarding the Science of Growth, or the Science of Life-Growth and Life are one. I have read with interest and profit previous records, and I have read this one with no less satisfaction, for it discloses the important fact that the writer is tremendously sincere, that he is eager to help, and that he knows what he is writing about. It really does not matter what people say or write, it matters less whether or not we agree with them; but it matters very much that they should have a profound conviction that their utterances are vibrantly true. Readers of this book may not find everything in it congenial to their needs, other pathways may, appeal to them more; yet herein is depicted a well- trodden road which some know leads to the One Goal. It is profoundly interesting to study roads that others tread and to note the marks which distinguish them from one’s own road. One can tread one’s own road more effectively, more swiftly, for a knowledge of the roads of others, for in essence all roads are one.
