The Mind can have no control o v e r th th e a c t i o n o f t h e n e g a t i v e quality of the life force, because this quality is of the earth and its elements and is merely negative or of no actual quality.

This is the first time any magazine has ever attempted to publi pu blish sh in its pag p ages es such suc h an exhau exh austiv stivee w ork or k as this th is and we are anxiou anx iouss to have our readers follow the lessons carefully. If you secure future issues of this magazine and preserve them you will have the entire science science o f "The "The New Ontology,” which will cover many pages. “The New Ne w O ntology” completely covers the subjects subjects o f Hypnotism, Telepathy, Psychology, Biology, Astrology, Cosmology, Ontology. Psychic and Spiritual Healing, Personal Magnetism, Clairvoyance, Disease, Health, Happiness and Success. Methods and complete rules are are given for producing these occult and mysterious phen omena omen a and the the science clearly shows how health may be obtained and maintained. “The New N ew Ontolog Onto logy" y" is, with w ithou outt a doubt, dou bt, the m ost os t comple com plete te and w onde on derfu rfull science science ever written, and was prepared during a period o f three years, years, while Mr. Thurston was testing his methods and systems in connection with his w ork before The New York Institut Institutee for Psychical Research.

SPECIAL NOTE
We wish to to announce that many o f our our readers have w ritten to to us requesting the privilege of asking a few questions relative to the lessons in the current issues. For this reason we have made arrangements with Mr. Thurston to have our readers send in their questions to us, which he will answer in the following issue. We should be glad to have all our readers take advantage of this unusual privilege, sending their questions, which should pertain only to matters published in the lessons, to the Editorial offices. offices. Mr. Thurston will gladly make plain any point or subject concerning which the student is in doubt. The name of the questioner will not be publi pu blish shed ed in conne con necte cted d with w ith the answer.. answ er.. During the past month there have been so many calls calls for the previous previous lessons on New Ontology, that our supply o f these lessons is rapidly rapidly being be ing exhaus exh austed ted..

Lesson Number Five.
Since there are three principles to a magnet and three evidences necessary to demonstrate and make possible these principles o f the magnet, these evidences being given, given, my m y student canno t doubt that the the human body is a magnet. There is but one more principle to which I wish to call the attention of my student student.. It has been stated that the degrees or proportion o f the two electrical qualities of the human body vary in each. Therefore the magnetic qualities qualities o f each human body vary also also.. I f the two electrical qualities qualities are properly proportioned in a human body the m agnetic
qualities qualities o f that body will be stronger than those in a body where the positi po sitive ve and negativ neg ativee qualitie qu alitiess are not no t prop p roperl erly y propor pro portion tioned ed.. Therefore the magnetic qualities in some human beings are very strong, while in other bodies they are very weak. Will my student be be kind enough to keep this in mind throughout the future lessons?
THE RELATION OF THE MIND AND LIFE FORCE.
In previous lessons it was stated that the Soul possesses the life force, or in other words, the Soul consists o f the vital life force. It was also stated that the Soul possesses the Mind as an attribute. For this reason the Mind and the life force are closely related. The Mind is the intelligence which governs the action of the vital functions and for this reason the Mind must GOVERN THE ACTION OF THE LIFE FORCE. Since the vital life force, of which the Soul is composed, is positive electricit electricity, y, the Mind must govern the action o f the positive quality quality o f the life force. The Mind can have no control over the action of the negative quality of the life force, because this quality is of the earth and its elements and is merely negative or of no actual quality. The foregoing being true, then it follows that through the Mind, its divisions and attributes, functions and faculties, the POSITIVE qualities of the life force, or the vital quality itself, can be governed in its action within the human body.
A BRIEF REVIEW.
Before proceeding further and entering upon the most serious part of the science, I must ask my student to bear with me while I briefly review the principal statements in the foregoing lessons. In substance they were as follows: Man is primarily made o f a physical, physical, negative substance, substance, which o f itself is is without any manifestation o f life life whatsoever. whatsoever. Life depends upon a positive electrical magnetic force acting upon the negative substance o f which the b ody or o r all matter is composed. composed. This positive electrical magnetic force reaches this earth and all plane pla nets ts and all space spac e thr t hrou ough gh the vibrat vib ration ionss o f the Sun in the air. Although the Sun and its vibrations is the source of all life, this life also depends upon matter of the earth with tits negative qualities in order that life can manifest itself. Since the Sun's positive electrical force manifests life and is the most pote po tent nt force for ce in life li fe and havin ha ving g intellige inte lligence nce,, the Sun is the guidi gu iding ng Divine Div ine Intelligence Intelligence and Force o f the Universe. Universe. God in Omn ipotence rules and controls the directing power and force of the Sun. When the positive qualities of life from the Sun come in contact with the negative, earthly substances, life is manifested and in a human body a Soul is created. This Soul is immortal. It cannot die, for not being of earthly substances it cannot decay. When the body becomes diseased or injured the positive force from the Sun leaves the body and returns to whence it
came: this leaves the body without life and the earthly substances of the body bo dy,— ,— the matte m atter,— r,— dies and decays: decay s: for m atter att er cann ca nnot ot live with wi thou outt it being be ing infus inf used ed w ith the positiv pos itivee qualitie qua litiess o f the Sun. The Mind being an attribute of the Soul, it too is immortal and cannot be destro des troye yed d or lost los t to life. The Mind is also the guiding intelligence of the Soul while in the human body and since Man is but a living Soul, independent of all matter and earthly substances, the Mind is Man's guiding intelligence and power while he lives upon this earth. All students will do well to memorize the above summary, for much depends upon a knowledge o f these principles. principles.
Part Two. The Physiology of Life. Life. INTRODUCTION.
My students students will find this part o f my work, to be the greatest pro of I can present to uphold my science. Therefore its serious study is strongly advised. My students will note with satisfaction how easily and consistently the physiology o f life life can be explained with the theory I have already outlined, outlined, without w ithout deviating from the principles and propositions given in prev pr eviou iouss lessons. lesso ns.

which explain one, should explain all of them. But they do not. We find medicine and science at variance in regard to the principle or quality of the life force, and we find medicine giving one explanation for the condition known as Hypnosis, while science will give another explanation. It must be apparent that explanations for these phenom ena cannot canno t be be made to order to suit the various experiences. The principles which explain life, must explain death, if the explanation or the principles involved be correct. An explanation which is offered to explain the maintenance o f life life and its action upon the body m ust explain the the pecu pe culia liarr phy p hysic sical al demo de monst nstrat ration ion know kn own n as "physic "phy sic force forc e vib ratio ra tions ns.” .” How absurd it is to hear science offering various explanations for the phen ph enom om ena en a know kn own n as Spiritu Spir ituali alistic stic when wh en none no ne o f these the se explan exp lanatio ations ns embody the fundamental principles o f their theory o f life life.. I f the Spiritualistic demonstrations are actual their explanations should embody the principles of life, of death, and all attending phenomena. It is these things, these inconsistencies which make medicine and science ludicrous theories. Medicine has failed to find a system of curing disease simply because it has not found the true principles of life. Science has failed to scientifically explain life simply because it has failed to recognize the true cause of life. This science is a complete hypothesis which will readily explain, scientifically and consistently, all the phenomena of life. This being true, it is the first and only science which has ever been able to do this. For this this reason carefully carefully follow the explanations given in this part o f my work w ork and note the references made.
LIFE.
In my previous lessons I have practically explained what life really is. I shall here briefly outline its creation. For years great men, wise in medicine and science, have been attempting to artificially create life. Loeb, Littlefield, and many others have stated many times that they were interested in such research work. But could anything be more absurd. “Artificial creation.” Are these not contradictory contradictory terms? Can any creation o f life life be artific artificial ial?? If creation o f life is accomplished accom plished at all it must mu st be real, real, genuine. gen uine. To think for f or one moment that there can be a substitution for life, or an artificial force used for creating life, is too absurd for consideration. We cannot believe that this is what is meant by these men when they use the foregoing term. What they do mean is to create life otherwise than through the regular method provided by nature. nature. They do not mean to substitut substitutee nature's laws, but rather to utilize nature’s laws through an artificial or different medium.
