The 'chrysalis' concept
The other day I read a citation from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures where Mary Baker Eddy talks about a “chrysalis” state of thought (see p. 297).
This got me thinking about what a chrysalis is, so I looked up the word and realized it had to do with the life cycle of the butterfly. As I did some research on this, I found it correlated very closely to our progress Spiritward as we study and practice Christian Science.
The butterfly shows such wisdom in where she lays her eggs. Not only does she choose the right leaf so that the small caterpillar, when hatched, doesn’t need to search far for food, but she typically lays her eggs on the underside of the leaf for protection.
