SPONTANEOUS COMMUNICATION OBTAINED BY THE MEDIUM MR. CROZ, READ AT THE SESSION OF THE SOCIETY ON JANUARY 21st, 1859

The companies that we see forming every day are acts of the Providence and the development of germs cultivated throughout the cen- turies. Humanity and the inhabited planet have one and the same exis- tence, whose phases are concatenated accordingly.

As soon as the great torments of nature are over, as well as the fever that leads to the wars of extermination, Philosophy will shine; slavery will vanish and the Arts and Sciences flourish.

Divine perfection may be summarized by beauty and usefulness. If God created the human being to His own image it is because God wanted human beings to live out of their own intelligence, as God himself lives amongst the splendors of God’s own creation.

The enterprises blessed by God, whatever their proportions, are those which fall in line with God’s designs, bringing their contribution to the collective work, whose law is written in the Universe: the beautiful and the useful. Art, daughter of rest and inspiration, is the beauty. Industry, daughter of Science and work, is the utility.

OBSERVATION: This communication is more or less the initiation of one medium that has just developed with remarkable speed. One must recognize that, as an experiment, it is really promising. Since the first session he wrote, without interruption, four pages which owe nothing to the one that he has just read, considering the perspicacity of thoughts, indicating in him an admirable ability to serve as an intermediary to all spirits, in private communications. As a matter of fact, we need to study that subject further, since not all mediums are given to that flexibility. We know mediums that cannot serve as intermediaries but to certain spirits and to a certain type of ideas.

After having written this note we even confirmed the real progress of the medium, whose faculty offers special characteristics, deserving great attention from the observer.
