It is to this region that poetry, art and music--and even, if I dare say so, philosophy--make their fundamental appeal.

No life is whole and harmonized in which it has not taken its right place.
We must now go on--and indeed, any psychological study of prayerful experience must lead us on--to the subject of suggestion, and its relation to the inner life.

By suggestion of course is here meant, in conformity with current psychological doctrine, the process by which an idea enters the deeper and unconscious psychic levels and there becomes fruitful.

Its real nature, and in consequence something of its far-reaching importance, is now beginning to be understood by us: a fact of great moment for both the study and the practice of the spiritual life.

Since the transforming work of the Spirit must be done through man's ordinary psychic machinery and in conformity with the laws which govern it, every such increase in our knowledge of that machinery must serve the interests of religion, and show its teachers the way to success.
