Making the sign of a triangle, an eye, and a tree in the air, with the forefinger of his left hand, he slowly repeated the words "Barjakva--ookpoota--trylisa." and the concluding syllable was no sooner uttered, than the trio found themselves standing in Berners Street. But of Karaver's house--the house they had just quitted--there was no trace. FOOTNOTES: [Footnote 19: According to Brahminical teaching there are seven main classes of spirits; some having innumerable sub-divisions. They are-- 1. Arrippa Devas, with forms. 2. Arrippa Devas, without forms. (Both Classes 1 and 2 are intelligent, sixth principles of certain planets. I style them Planetians, and classify them with all other spirits hailing from Jupiter Neptune, etc.) 3. Mara rupas (identical with Vice-Elementals). 4. Pisachas, _i.e._ male and female elementaries. (I have termed them Impersonating Elementals, since they consist of the astral forms of the dead, that may be utilized by Elementals.) 5. Asuras, _i.e._ gnomes, pixies, etc. (Corresponding to those I have designated Vagrarian Elementals.) 6. Monstrosities. (These I include among Vice-Elementals and Vagrarians.) 7. Kaksasas, viz. souls of wizards, witches, and of clever people with evil tendencies, scientists with cruel or harsh tendencies--such as vivisectionists and sophists. All these come under my division of "earthbound phantasms of the dead"--spirits tied to this earth by passions or vices; and I should add to the list--militant suffragettes, strike agitators, hooligans, apaches, pseudo-humanitarians, religious bigots, misers, all people obsessed with manias, idiots, epileptic imbeciles and criminal lunatics. All such may at times be encountered on the lowest spiritual plane.] [Footnote 20: Composed of 2 drachms of myrrh, 1/2 oz. of sweet oil, 2 oz. of attar of roses, 1/2 oz. heliotrope and 1/4 oz. of musk.] [Footnote 21: These words are so arranged as to set in vibration and loosen the atmosphere, that keeps the spirit incarcerated in the physical body, and so set the latter free.] CHAPTER XVI HAMAR MAKES ADVANCES
