"'Without a parable spake he not unto them'
(Matthew 13:34). This series of booklets took shape from ideas which
were given to the authors by Principle as they studied the parables of
Jesus, those masterpieces of a master teacher and demonstrator. Through
them they learned of the true Science of being and its direct
application to human living. The ideas which unfolded proved
outstandingly kind and persistent in their persuasiveness and very much
alive with freedom and happiness as well as with the imperative demands
of Principle on its student. Because they also proved fruitful as they
were assimilated, they are now made available in a spirit of sharing.
They are not final nor mandatory; there is no question of telling anyone
else what to do. Nevertheless the ideas recorded will by the very nature
of their origin lead the reader to truths which will define themselves
in ways unique to his own individual manner of thinking. As Mrs. Eddy
puts it, 'In the scientific relation of God to man, we find that
whatever blesses one blesses all, as Jesus showed with the loaves and
fishes, - Spirit, not matter, being the source of supply' (S&H
206:15-18).
From the infinitude of the Mind which gave them it is clear that
the
parables have many meanings other than those presented in these
booklets. May these particular interpretations be as helpful to the
reader as they have been to those who had the privilege of entertaining
them." (Emphasis added) |
