Publisher's Synopsis
The Plain Path is a book written by Frances Newton Symmes Allen and first published in 1912. The book is a collection of essays and reflections on the author's personal spiritual journey and her beliefs about the nature of God, the universe, and humanity. Throughout the book, Allen emphasizes the importance of simplicity and humility in one's spiritual life, advocating for a ""plain path"" that eschews the trappings of wealth, power, and materialism in favor of a more grounded and authentic connection with the divine. She also explores themes such as the role of suffering in spiritual growth, the power of prayer and meditation, and the importance of cultivating a sense of gratitude and compassion towards others.Written in a clear and accessible style, The Plain Path offers readers a glimpse into the mind of a thoughtful and deeply spiritual woman, and provides valuable insights and inspiration for anyone seeking to deepen their own spiritual practice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
