Study of Seven Synonyms | |||||
Helen M. Wright gained a
deep apprehension of the seven synonymous terms for God through her
thorough study which is clearly reflected in many of her writings. On
the following page one can find scans of her underlining the seven
synonyms in separate copies of Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. |

Mary Baker Eddy wrote:
"For the world to understand me in my true light and life, would do more
for our Cause than aught else could. This I learn from the fact that the
enemy tries harder to hide these two things from the world than to win
any other points." (See Divinity Course and
General Collectanea, compiled by
Richard F. Oakes,
p. 112) All of Helen Wright's writings are permeated with the desire to understand and show Mary Baker Eddy in her true light and life. She does this not by recording the historical events as many biographies on Mrs. Eddy have done, but by looking at Mrs. Eddy's teachings and writings in combination with the teachings and prophesies in the Bible. Many of Helen Wright's books have been read by Alan Young, past Christian Science lecturer and well known actor and comedian. He has shown great appreciation for Helen Wright's writings. He wrote: "... She [Helen Wright] has the greatest and clearest insight into the life of Mary Baker Eddy that I have ever seen. ... The author is careful never to inject herself of her opinions but presents a careful and deep presentation of Mrs. Eddy's divine inspiration. ..." (from back cover of Made Whole by Helen Wright). His recordings are available below in MP3 format. |

Seven-Volume Series | |||||
In the first edition of Science and Health (1875) Mary Baker Eddy shared with the world the spiritual light that was revealed to her. Many editions later she referred to it as "The Precious Volume" (Ret. 37:2). Much can be learned from going back to this "Precious Volume". In each book of the following series, Helen Wright focuses primarily on each of the first six chapters of the first edition of Science and Health. The seventh volume refers to the last edition of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures and concludes the series. These books show a deep and abiding love, reverence and gratitude for Mary Baker Eddy, who brought the Second Coming of the Christ, the "Comforter," in a textbook that reveals your divinity and oneness with God, infinite good. (see John 14) | |||||

Volume I sets the stage by looking at Mrs. Eddy's extraordinary, vital early teaching – before Science and Health was written – which enabled her students to go forth and heal every manner of disease and discord. Then the book delves into Chapter I of the first edition of Science and Health called "Natural Science", which reveals the all-knowing, all-power of Mind – the all-knowing, all-power that is the true and real Mind of the reader when he has gained understanding. All Mrs. Eddy's works show our only need is to gain the God-character – to be Love – be nothing but Love. 1995, second printing Read by Alan Young |

Volume II takes up the marvelous statements of Chapter II of the first edition of Science and Health called "Imposition and Demonstration". This describes both the imposition of the carnal mind and our infinite possibilities as we learn that our own right Mind is God and that Mind is Love. 1996, second edition Read by Alan Young |
|||||
|
|||||
Volume III focuses on Chapter III of the first edition of Science and Health, "Spirit and Matter", which proclaims: Spirit is All; matter is illusion. It examines this core teaching which leads us out of materiality, translating human consciousness from matter beliefs back into Spirit, showing us our true and right God-being and identity, and helping us understand that our identity is Love – Love made visible. |

This book reveals the "kingdom within" that brings healing revelations of Truth to consciousness. It lifts the veil (the mesmerism of the five physical senses) that hides the divinity of the reader himself. The reader becomes fully aware that "the kingdom of God is within [him]" – is his own spiritual consciousness, needing only spiritual education to reveal to him this great truth that will set him free to enjoy his infinite harmonious Christ-expressing selfhood – the selfhood that is Love. This book concentrates on "Creation", Chapter IV of the first edition of Science and Health, while also expounding on the essential principles found in the first three chapters. Read by Alan Young |

In Humanity's Divinity Mrs. Wright uses "Atonement and Eucharist", the fifth chapter of the first edition of Science and Health, to illumine Mrs. Eddy's teachings. It explores our understanding of the "Kingdom within" and lifts the veil of matter and loosens earth's ties to reveal the harmony of heaven, here and now. As we become aware that evil is only hypnotic suggestion, totally without reality, we will be able to demonstrate the allness and onliness of the Infinite Good called God. This book shows how important it is to see Mary Baker Eddy in her true light as can be found in Bible Prophecy. Mary Baker Eddy can never be seen separated from the Science she brought. With her place assured in our hearts a new day will dawn. Nothing can then hold back the tide of change ushered in by the understanding that God is our own real Mind. Then "mind will no longer grovel at the feet of matter" (Mary Baker Eddy). Read by Alan Young |

The sixth volume delves into "Marriage", the sixth chapter of the first edition of Science and Health. Made Whole teaches what Mrs. Eddy taught concerning our divine and our human marriage; and how we make ourselves "the Son of God," as Jesus did. It looks into the call from the Scriptures of I John 3:2 to become what we already are. Read by Alan Young |

Your Divinity Revealed, the seventh and last volume of this series, culminates into the science of Christian Science of the last (1910) edition of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. With a brief history of the pioneering work of John Doorly and Max Kappeler the reader comes into a full appreciation of what these pioneers painstakingly researched and prayerfully considered in their exploration of Mrs. Eddy's textbook. The seven synonyms defining God in the Glossary constitute the basis for this system as applied through the four levels – Christian Science, absolute Christian Science, divine Science, and Science itself. Seen through the Word, Christ, Christianity and divine Science, this "system" that Mary Baker Eddy "hid" once again comes to life for the reader. |

"Mary Baker Eddy: A New Look At Her Place in Bible Prophecy (And Its Deep Meaning For These Crisis-Ridden Times)". This book uncovers the daring truths taught by Mary Baker Eddy which give the solution to the problems of these troubled times. She challenges the whole cycle of birth and death. Material creation is discovered as illusion, and evil as unreal. Mrs. Eddy's conviction that man starts form God and has always been inherently perfect opens new vistas of man's power and freedom. Mrs. Eddy's primary commitment was to the sharing of a vision of ultimate reality. Helen Wright's book grows out of weekly discussions held over 20 years with seekers and inquirers into Christian Science. From these discussions emerges a new vision of Mary Baker Eddy and her teachings. Seen as the woman of the Apocalypse, she is a completion of the Christian prophecy found in the book of Revelation. |

Mrs. Wright penetratingly illumines the book Mary Baker Eddy considered second only to Science and Health in importance. Mrs. Eddy told her students: "The Manual will save the cause;" and wrote: "Eternity awaits our Church Manual" This book shows how the Manual was carefully designed to bring to view the Church Universal & Triumphant, and through it, the spiritual salvation of the human race. (My. 230:2) 1981, first edition 2000, internet edition |

In it's third edition, this book shows how the Christian Science movement's decline can be traced directly to the church's failure to obey Mary Baker Eddy's Church Manual. Mrs. Eddy insisted that her Church Manual be obeyed as written, since "it was dictated by God just as was Science and Health." This book examines the intent of Mrs. Eddy's carefully detailed instructions; it exposes the continuing willful disobedience to them, discusses ongoing efforts to challenge the ecclesiasticism that has wreaked such havoc, and shows what is needed to get the movement "back on track." 1989, third enlarged edition 1984, Dutch translation: Indien de Kerkhandleiding van Mary Baker Eddy gehoorzaamd werd Read by Alan Young |

Unpublished Manuscript | |||||
|
|||||
Helen Wright studied carefully the publications of Alice Orgain. Reading Orgain's work is a challenge to many, but Helen saw its tremendous value. This manuscript of over 300 pages was devoted to the work of Alice L. Orgain. The manuscript was left unfinished. In this document we present an article that was published by The Individual Christian Scientist that contains an excerpt from this manuscript, accompanied with a short introduction on both Alice L. Orgain and Helen M. Wright. |
