Is it possible to transfer your mind?

On what general conditions of life here depend the soul's highest good in the spirit life?—or does the soul's highest good in the spirit life depend upon the conditions of earth life?

The soul's highest good in spirit life depends on the development to which it attains in earth life.

You are threefold in your nature. The best health and development of the one tends to the best health and development of the other.

As the muscles of the arm are strengthened, hardened and developed by constant use, so is the spirit advanced by its own efforts in the perception and rendering of spiritual things—

By its loyalty and truth to itself, by its conception of what is highest and best and purest in itself, by sustaining itself by prayer, by the perception of God's spirit in Nature, and your fellow being, by the influx of strength that flows to you from eyes that look into your own with gratitude, by the consciousness of your own unwavering integrity of purpose―

As the earthly-mind can only find expression through the earthly body, so the spirit can only find expression through the soul or mind.

No very great, powerful, well-balanced mind ever found expression through a feeble, misshapen and imperfectly developed body―

No sweet, pure, inspiring spirit ever found its way through an ill-balanced, stubborn, arrogant, selfish and undisciplined mind.

Thus, you see the threefold nature of your nature must develop in harmony in earth life to reach its greatest perfection, and when transplanted to be in its highest good in spirit life.

When your mental powers have grasped the facts of what bodily conditions are best to your mind's peace and enlargement, and when you have subjected the body to the dominion of the mind, then will the perfection and perception of the spirit break through and govern both.

So, the highest development, which you can attain in earth life is wrought through the good, which you are able to accomplish in the world for humanity―the uplifts, which you can in any way give toward a more spiritualised existence.

Exchange of love, exchange of sympathy, a helping hand to one who is stumbling or in distress is a development of both soul and spirit―one that is reciprocal.
