You are now invited to write out all the possible TRUE combinations of these four pyramids, and particularly to observe the following
RIGHT PYRAMIDAL COMBINATIONS.
We see that--
1. Physical Health makes for Physical Magnetism;
2. Physical Magnetism bases Psychic Magnetism;
3. Physical Health neighbors Moral Health;
4. Moral Health conduces to Physical Magnetism;
5. Moral Health is indispensable to Psychic Magnetism;
6. Psychic health bases Physical Magnetism.
We also observe that--
7. Physical Magnetism assists Physical Health;
8. Psychic Magnetism assists Physical Health;
9. Moral Health assists Physical Health.
It now appears that--
10. Physical Magnetism is indifferent to TRUE Moral Health;
11. Psychic Magnetism assists Moral Health;
12. Psychic Magnetism assists Physical Magnetism.
We therefore conclude that the following are
INCOMPLETE PYRAMIDAL COMBINATIONS.
1. Physical Health--[Physical Magnetism + Psychic Magnetism + Moral Health].
2. Physical Health + Physical Magnetism--[Psychic Magnetism + Moral Health].
3. Physical Health + Physical Magnetism + Psychic Magnetism-- [Moral Health].
4. Physical Magnetism--[Psychic Magnetism + Moral Health].
5. Physical Magnetism + Psychic Magnetism--[Moral Health]. Impossible.
6. Psychic Magnetism--[Physical Health + Physical Magnetism].
7. Psychic Magnetism + Physical Health--[Physical Magnetism + Moral Health]. Impossible in part.
8. Moral Health--[Physical Health + Physical Magnetism].
9. Moral Health + Physical Health--[Physical Magnetism + Psychic Magnetism]. Impossible in part.
You may thus possess physical health without physical magnetism. But if you seek physical magnetism, you must go by the way of physical health.
You may possess moral health without full psychic magnetism, but if you seek the highest form of psychic magnetism, you must go by the way of moral health.
It is now evident that the following are
IDEAL COMBINATIONS.
FIRST--FROM THE STANDPOINT OF MORALS.
1. First:--Moral Health. Next:
2. Moral Health + Psychic Magnetism + Physical Magnetism + Physical Health. Next:
3. Moral Health + Psychic Magnetism + Physical Magnetism. Next:
4. Moral Health + Psychic Magnetism + Physical Health. Next:
5. Moral Health + Psychic Magnetism. Next:
6. Moral Health + Physical Magnetism. Next:
7. Moral Health + Physical Health. Next:
8. Psychic Magnetism. Impossible alone.
9. Physical Magnetism. Impossible alone.
10. Physical Health. Mere animal life.
SECOND--FROM THE STANDPOINT OF MAGNETISM.
1. First:--Psychic Magnetism. Next:
2. Psychic Magnetism + Moral Health + Physical Magnetism + Physical Health. Next:
3. Psychic Magnetism + Moral Health + Physical Magnetism. Next:
4. Psychic Magnetism + Moral Health + Physical Health. Next:
5. Psychic Magnetism + Moral Health. Next:
6. Psychic Magnetism + Physical Magnetism. Next:
7. Psychic Magnetism + Physical Health. Next:
8. Moral Health. Next:
9. Physical Magnetism. Impossible alone. Next:
10. Physical Health. Valueless alone.
CONCLUSIONS.
Summarizing possible conclusions, we have the following:
1. Physical health is indispensable to physical magnetism;
2. Psychic righteousness (health) is indispensable to psychic magnetism;
3. Psychic magnetism is indispensable to best physical magnetism;
4. Physical magnetism is not wholly indispensable to psychic magnetism.
5. PERFECT PSYCHIC MAGNETISM INVOLVES HEALTH, PHYSICAL MAGNETISM AND PSYCHIC RIGHTEOUSNESS.
The ALL-IMPORTANT departments of your personality are those of PSYCHIC RIGHTEOUSNESS and PSYCHIC MAGNETISM.
But the IDEAL MAN of success is the WHOLE MAN always AT HIS BEST.
The whole man is more than psychic development; he is a PRODUCT AND A CREATOR OF PRACTICAL AFFAIRS.
MAGNETISM A GROWTH.
Let us understand. You cannot reasonably hope to succeed by merely DREAMING about success.
You surely cannot achieve success if you PLUNGE BLINDLY through your career.
You cannot really succeed without possessing some degree of PERSONAL MAGNETISM.
When you began the present study, you certainly possessed a measure of magnetic capacity, either physical or psychic, otherwise you would not have purchased this book. If you have energetically observed its directions, you have developed both varieties; but, above that, you have also combined them into one living whole, the magnetic personality.
This result has required at least a year of persistent effort. If you have arrived at this point in less time, you should go back and begin where haste first retarded your progress.
MAGNETISM IS A NATURAL GROWTH.
No matter how great may be your ability to read and understand books, that growth, that law, require time as well as intelligent effort. No matter how poor may be your ability in such respect, that growth is absolutely certain if you put reasonable time and genuine effort into its acquisition.
The giant trees of California were once puny saplings. The slow lapse of time has drawn nature into their mighty hearts. Magnetism can no more be acquired by the mere reading of a book, or by hurried practice of its directions, than can these giants of the West be produced in the hot-house culture of a northern summer.
MAGNETIC GROWTH IS NATURALLY SLOW. Its principles, its methods, and the results of its study, have to be deeply sunk into and absorbed and assimilated by the subjective self before the reaction of magnetism in the objective life can obtain. This book has promised no miracle. If you have read it correctly, you have learned that magnetic
