Reseña del editor
The only absolute certainty in this life is that each individual must die, and that at any moment. The one question, therefore, of first and transcendent importance is, If a man die, shall he live again? All other questions seem secondary to, or dependent upon this one. Neglect or evade this problem as men will, yet the deaths of beloved ones and ones own steadily approaching crisis force home the question sooner or later to every heart. Fortunately, the majority are born with the tendency of taking immortality for granted. The readiness with which the child accepts instantly the teaching that the dead are only translated, is one of the many proofs that this truth is a soul instinct, God sself-impression on the human spirit.
