PRINCIPLES OF NATURE,

HER DIVINE REVELATIONS,

AND

A VOICE TO MANKIND.

BY AND THROUGH

ANDREW JACKSON DAVIS,

THE "POUGHKEEPSIE SEER" AND "CLAIRVOYANT."

Andrew Jackson Davis (1826–1910) was a central figure in the American Spiritualist movement; he claimed to dictate this entire book while in a trance state.

IN THREE PARTS.

PART FIRST.

Any theory, hypothesis, philosophy, sect, creed, or institution that fears investigation openly reveals its own error.

PART SECOND.

Reason is a flower of the spirit, and its fragrance is liberty and knowledge.

PART THIRD.

When distributive justice The fair distribution of benefits and burdens among all members of a society. spreads through the social world, virtue and morality will bloom with an immortal beauty; meanwhile, the Sun of Righteousness will arise on the horizon of universal industry and shed its cheering rays over all the fields of peace, plenty, and HUMAN HAPPINESS!
