LESSON III
TELEPATHY EXPLAINED
What "telepathy" means. The mental process by which one "knows at a
distance." The sending and receiving of waves and currents of thought and
feeling. Thought vibrations, and how they are caused. The part played by
the cerebrum, cerebellum, and medulla oblongata--the three brains of man.
The part played by the solar plexus and other great nervous centres. How
thought messages are received. How states of emotional excitement are
transmitted to others. The Pineal Gland: what it is, and what it does. The
important part it plays in telepathy and thought-transference. Mental
atmospheres. Psychic atmospheres of audiences, towns, houses, stores, etc.
Why you are not affected by all thought vibrations in equal measure and
strength. How thought vibrations are neutralized. Affinities and
repulsions between different thought vibrations. Interesting facts
concerning telepathy. Scientific explanations of telepathy.
LESSON IV
SCIENTIFIC TELEPATHY
The important investigations of the Society for Psychical Research. True
telepathy and pseudo-telepathy; how they are distinguished by scientists.
Strict tests imposed in investigations. The celebrated "Creery
Experiments," and how they were conducted. The elaboration of the
"guessing" game. Seventeen cards chosen right, in straight succession.
Precautions against fraud or collusion. Two hundred and ten successes out
of a possible three hundred and eighty-two. Science pronounces the results
as entirely beyond the law of coincidences and mathematical probability;
and that the phenomena were genuine and real telepathy. Still more
wonderful tests. Telepathy an incontestable reality. "A psychic force
transmitting ideas and thoughts." Interesting cases of spontaneous
telepathy, scientifically proven. Extracts from the scientific records.
Cold scientific reports read like a romance, and prove beyond doubt the
reality of this great field of phenomena.
LESSON V
MIND-READING, AND BEYOND
What "Mind-Reading" is. The two phases of Mind-Reading. Mind-Reading with
physical contact; and without physical contact. Why the scientific
investigators make the distinction. Why science has been over-cautious;
and how it falls short of the full understanding of contact Mind-Reading.
How the thought-waves flow along the nerves of the projector and
recipient. Like telegraphy over wires, as compared with the wireless
method. How to learn by actual experience, and not alone by reading books.
How to experiment for yourself; and how to obtain the best results in
Mind-Reading. The working principles of Mind-Reading stated. Full
directions and instruction given for the successful performance of the
interesting feats. This lesson is really a little manual of
practical instruction in Mind-Reading, and the higher phases of
Thought-Transference. The person carefully studying and applying the
principles taught therein should become very proficient in both private
and public manifestations.
