What is Religious Science?
Religious Science is the study
of "The Science of Mind", a study of First
Cause, Spirit, Mind, or that invisible Essence, that
ultimate Stuff and Intelligence from which everything
comes, the Power back of creation - the Thing Itself.
The Science of Mind is the Science of Spiritual Psychology.
It is a metaphysical teaching, the study of Life and
the nature of the Law, governed and directed by thought;
always conscious that we live in a spiritual Universe;
that God is in, through, around and for us.
To suppose that the Creative Intelligence of the Universe
would create man in bondage and leave him bound, would
be to dishonor the Creative Power which we call God.
To suppose that God could make man as an individual,
without leaving him to discover himself, would be to
suppose an impossibility. The seed of freedom must be
planted in the innermost being of man, but, like the
Prodigal Son, man must make the great discovery for
himself. Thus the inherent nature of man is forever
seeking to express itself in terms of freedom, and so
the purpose of studying The Science of Mind.
