Emma Curtis Hopkins

Teacher of Teachers
1849 – 1925

Emma Curtis Hopkins re-states the teaching of the Sages of the Ages, whereby the earnest students may find God in the inmost sanctuary of their being – for truly the Highest is the Nearest, Most Distant yet Most Present, and we are in His Image. The Highest and the Inmost God is one God.

She tells us that, the Sacred Books of all ages mention three Sciences: Material, Mental and Mystical. Material Science declares laws that are sure: as iron sharpens iron, and hydrogen and oxygen clashing together fall into thirst-quenching water.

The Sacred Books proclaim a Mental Science to which the world can subscribe, as “All that we are is made up of our thought.”

Mystical Science announces the miracles of Predicateless Being, setting the ways of matter at nought, and nullifying the thought of the mind: “The flesh profiteth nothing. Take no thought. In such a moment as ye think not.”

Mystical Science is the chalice of golden wine passed along to the sons of men by John’s angels of the Apocalypse. It is a new song for the hearts of the children of the New Age.
