SOM 208 - The Metaphysics of Emerson

In this accredited course, the foundations of Religious Science will be studied by reading several critical essays by Ralph Waldo Emerson, one of the three pivotal influences (the Bible, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Thomas Troward) of Ernest Holmes. To Emerson, the world about us is the visible appearance of what is invisible, things in time are symbols of essences in eternity, and the life, the vitality and the soul in us is the life and soul of the Universe.

Join Rev. David Barrett to see why this class is so basic to the understanding of the Science of Mind!

Emerson’s Essays, by Ralph Waldo Emerson

The Science of Successful Living

* No class June 16th.
