“We were taught to believe that the Great Spirit sees and hears
everything, and that He never forgets, that hereafter He will give every
man a spirit-home according to his deserts: If he has been a good man, he
will have a good home; if he has been a bad man, he will have a bad
home." Chief
Joseph Nez Perce These were
revolutionary and drastic proposals, but the moment I fully accepted
them, the effect was electric. There was a sense of victory, followed
by such a peace and serenity as I had never known. There was
utter confidence. I felt lifted up, as though the great clean wind of
a mountain top blew through and through. God comes to most men gradually,
but His impact on me was sudden and profound. Big Book

we were approached by those in whom the problem had been solved, there was
nothing left for us but to pick up the simple kit of spiritual tools laid
at our feet. We have found much of heaven and we have been rocketed into a
fourth dimension of existence of which we had not even
dreamed. Big Book
