[Please see my 3 images of the actual book.] "It is true that Prayer and Trust pertain to the same sector; but such is not the case with metaphysical Discernment, whose subject is not the sensible soul, but pure intelligence; which---far from creating an antagonism---permits the simultaneity of parallel approaches. The proof of this is the altogether lyrical piety of a Shankara, his hymns and invocations to the feminine as well as masculine aspects of the transcendent and immanent Divinity: to the Self who a priori is infinitely 'other,' but who in reality is infinitely 'ourselves.'"---end of Frithjof Schuon's article, page 8.

For upwards of forty years he was an enthusiastic supporter of local and national chess in England; he founded, in conjunction with the late Mr. F. H. Lewis, the brilliancy prize now established in connection with all important tourneys, and he regularly contributed to the principal tournaments in this country. He was the author of two well known chess books: Chess Brilliants: One Hundred Games (1869) and Chess Skirmishes (1889).
