The Mary Baker Eddy
Institute, was chartered in 1988 as a non-profit Corporation by Helen M.
Wright and her husband William C. Wright. In 2005, the name of the
Institute was changed to the Mary Baker Eddy Science Institute,
hereinafter referred to as the "Institute". The Institute is an
independent non-sectarian Institution, not affiliated with any church or
denomination or religious organization.
Mary Baker Eddy's life's study and divine inspiration enabled her to
both discover and found Christian Science. This is the Science of the
Christ, hereinafter referred to as "Science", the very same Truth which
Jesus used in overcoming sin, sickness, death, and finally ascending. He
used this same Truth to prove the nothingness of matter and the allness
of God, good, which is the primary Cornerstone of Christian Science. |

| Mary Baker Eddy refers in
her writings to "Science" 3,522 times and to "system" 112 times. Many of
these references specifically refer to the "Science" and "system" of
Christian Science. The "Science" and "system" of Christian Science is
the key to understanding Christian Science. Understanding Christian
Science INSTANTLY and automatically includes "heaven on earth" for YOU
and also touches everyone on whom your thought rests, as proven by Mary
Baker Eddy and many others since 1866. the year of Mary Baker Eddy's
discovery and healing from an accident deemed to be fatal by medical
physicians. Yet, today, to most "Christian Scientists" the "Science" and
"system" of Christian Science is either foreign or totally unknown.
Therefore, the primary focus of the Mary Baker Eddy Science Institute
is
to offer the published works (written, pdf, MP3 formats) of advanced
students of Christian Science whose research and observations are
exactly on the topic of the "Science" and "system" of Christian Science.
BECAUSE of the great need to study the "Science" and "system" of
Christian Science, we offer all publications
FREE. We do gratefully
accept donations (see menu). |
Christ Jesus showed humanity "The Way" but did not leave humanity any
system to follow in order to follow his path. This void was
filled when
Mary Baker Eddy provided to the world --- the "System", hereinafter referred
to as "System" and "Science". She refers to the "Science" and the
"System" numerous times in her writings.
The Institute seeks to promote the pure Science and System by making
resources available for FREE to "honest seekers of Truth".
Helen M. Wright, co-founder of the Institute, was born and raised in
Seattle, Washington. When a young girl, both her mother and father were
healed of serious illnesses through Christian Science. Due to the
healings,
Mrs. Wright became a life-long student of Christian Science and devoted
her life to the study of Mary Baker Eddy's works including specifically
the "Science" and "system" of Christian Science. As a part of this study, she came to realize the
significance of Mary Baker Eddy's dynamic impact on the world and wrote
many publications and books about her and the "Science" and "system" she
discovered.
Mrs. Eddy stated: "Spiritual teaching must always be by symbols.” The
leaders of ancient times conveyed their ideas through art, symbols and
music. Mrs. Eddy, in one of her advanced works, Christ and Christmas,
conveyed spiritual teaching by both symbols and art. Seven of her poems
were lyrics for hymns.
Of course, spiritual inspiration is needed for a leader to convey the
ideas revealed to them. The student needs, desperately needs, to begin
to approach the understanding of these ideas with an open heart and
spiritual inspiration. Otherwise, an inadequate or completely fallacious
interpretation results, whether materialistic or pure scholarly, and
misses the message of Truth.
John Doorly of London, England, was divinely inspired. This inspiration
permeates his many writings. He is the first known student of Christian
Science who studied and published writings on the "Science" and the
"System". He began to realize the enormous depth of the System which
Mrs. Eddy presented to the world. Beginning in the early 1900's and for
50 years, Mr. Doorly devoted his life's work to the development of his
understanding of the System and he, along with inspired students which
he taught, continued to research in order to understand and clarify to
humanity, the System of the Science. Mr. Doorly and his group of
students worked individually, in groups, through seminars, and wrote
many publications. Many of these valuable resources are made available
through the Institute, and in some cases the Institute is the only place
making these resources available to the public. Although we appreciate
donations, we make the publications available for free.
In Mrs. Wright's many publications and books, she focused intently on
the "Science" and the "System". She vividly honors Mary Baker Eddy and
Mary Baker Eddy's monumental contribution to the world. Helen Wright
continuously pointed to Mrs. Eddy "in her true light" including "her
special place in spiritual history". The Institute continues with this
motive.
Helen Wright, together with others, notably Mrs. Peggy M. Brook, Mr.
John L. Morgan, Mr. Lawrence L. Sinton, and Mr. W. Gordon Brown, all
from England continued to research and publish and teach the "Science"
and the "System" for several more decades after John Doorly left in
visible form.
Due to the infinite nature of the Science of the Christ, there is no end
to its development. Because of this, the Institute
continues to add newly discovered resources to this website for the
"honest seeker of Truth". |
