LESSON XII
CLAIRVOYANCE OF THE FUTURE
The clairvoyant power manifest in all forms of perception of facts,
happenings and events of future time. Explanation of Prophecy, Prevision,
Foretelling, Second-Sight, etc. These powers not supernatural; but are
merely the development of the clairvoyant faculties. How may a thing be
"seen" years before it really exists. Nothing could be seen, unless it
existed in some form, at least potential and latent. Keen perception of
the subconscious faculties. Subconscious reasoning from cause to effect.
Coming events cast their shadows before. Fate vs. Free-Will. "Time is but
a relative mode of regarding things." "Events may, in some sense, exist
always, both past and future." Time like a moving-picture reel, containing
the future scene at the present moment, though out of sight. Analogy of
dream-time. An Absolute Consciousness in which past, present and future
exist as a single perception. A glimpse of a transcendental truth. How to
acquire the faculty of Future-Clairvoyance.
LESSON XIII
SECOND-SIGHT, PREVISION, ETC.
Many persons, in all times, in all lands, have possessed the gift of
looking into the future. Not a superstition, but a scientific fact. The
Investigations of the scientific bodies. The Society for Psychical
Research, and its reports on this phase of Clairvoyance. Interesting case
told by a leading Theosophist. Tragedy and Funeral foreseen by Clairvoyant
Prevision, or Second-Sight. Historical instances. George Fox, the Quaker,
and his Second-Sight. The prophecy of the Death of Caesar. Biblical
instances. The celebrated case of Cazotte, which has become a matter of
history. How Cazotte foretold the coming of the French Revolution,
including the fate of eminent personages present at the time of the
prophecy. A startling occurrence, well worthy of careful study. The
historical case of the assassination of Spencer Perceval, Chancellor of
the Exchequer. Other well-authenticated cases. Symbolic visions. Irish and
Scotch cases.
