EXPERIENCES IN SPIRITUALISM WITH MR. D. D. HOME. BY VISCOUNT ADARE, [Windham Thomas Wyndham-Quin 1841-1926] WITH INTRODUCTORY REMARKS BY THE EARL OF DUNRAVEN. [Viscount Adare's father] [1869]
Home spoke to the effect that even if they [spirits] could tell us the whole truth our minds could not understand or bear it. He said that spirits had different views on these subjects, and that they could not and might not unfold the truth.
“You are taught," he continued, “as much as you can bear. A common theory, speaking figuratively, is that the heavens and earth are two cones; and that Christ is, as it were, the two apexes, joining and connecting both."
