The earth has the power of drawing and holding to itself all material things. The spiritual world has the same power of drawing and holding to itself all spiritual things.
One attracts heavy or coarse matter, the other fine, sublimated matter, and the attraction of gravitation of the one is far more powerful than the other.
The spiritual realm is far more powerful than the coarser and heavier earth, and attracts and holds countless billions of tons of attenuated matter every day—every blade of grass, every leaf of vegetation, tree and shrub, every stream, river, pond—all large bodies of water are being drawn upward as rapidly as the sun and air can do it.
There is nothing indefinite in Nature, neither in the spirit world, nor in the earthly world, and one is as definite as the other, one is as real as the other—
What becomes of all the countless millions and billions of tons of matter that rise up from the earth at all times and seasons?
A portion of the grosser elements are attracted and drawn back to earth—those that by the law of Natural Affinity belong to earth, but not the finer, the more sublimated, the spiritual, that is attracted and held by the spirit world.
Nothing is lost, nothing can be lost, but it has gone somewhere—it is going somewhere every day.
It has gone to form beautiful, exquisite, sublimated material, ethereal, spiritual spheres or zones, which lie all around the earth in different stratas—one above another, the first commencing just beyond the dense atmosphere of earth.
