Or that it is only a high kind of happiness that can be shared	4

We cannot be sure that all its elements are permanent	8

But this contention is entirely false They were never before	17

Secondly the insignificance to which science has reduced	23

But this is absolutely false Buddhist positivism is the exact	29

What then is	40

all other prizes	44

As a matter of fact there is no possible object sufficient to start	167

If we state the positive system in terms of common life its vision	172

And a consideration of these will help us more than anything	178

But only that it will be realised if certain other prospects	185

Conscience still survives but it has lost its restraining power	191

The class of men to whom this applies is increasing and they	196

It is felt even by men of science	202

CHAPTER IX	208

But social health is nothing but the personal health of all	51

The modern positive school requires a great general enthusiasm	73

As we can learn explicitly from George Eliot	78

There is much that we have not got rid of embodied still in	84
