Rare Spiritualist Book from Rider & Co: The Magic of Angels By The Spirit Dr Lascelles Channelled By Rev Charles Simpson
Lascelles, Dr. [Simpson, Rev. Charles]. The Magic Of Angels. Rider & Co. London. 1932. First edition.
Channeled lectures on the magic of angels delivered by “Dr Lascelles” one of the healing spirit guides of British spiritualist Rev. Charles A Simpson, founder of the Guild of Spirit Healing, also known as The Seekers, who also established The Seekers Trust Healing Centre.
Explaining that angels are messengers that act as links between the mind and God and as the means by which God acts upon the minds of men, the lectures define angels by their properties, effect on atmosphere and great power, and provide instructions for drawing, sensing, and working with angels even if you do not otherwise communicate with them. Decidedly Christian in bent with an emphasis on prayer and the existence of Jesus as a being that can be called on from another plane of existence, the text is also influenced by New Thought in its focus on “rightness of thinking”.
