Being In the city at the time. |
persuaded a young lady to allow me
to hypnotize her in order that she
might become clairvoyant, and. there
by. find the whereabouts of the man
he being known to both of us.
She consented. but informed me
that she did not believe in either hyp-
notism or clairvoyance. and that no
body could hypnotic her. as many at
tempts had been made and all had
failed.
/ encouraged her to express her
Aself freely; in fact. helping her TO
unload her objections. When this
was done she became passive Ia nee
essary condition) and in less than
two minutes tno longer time is ever
required with good subject) she was
so thoroughly hypnotized that she
passed readily into clairyoyant con-
dition.
She went (clairvoyantly) to his
home. She saw him quietly leave his
home in the night q say saw him,
as that is a clairvoyant expression).
She saw him board train, saw him
leave the train at Detroit. Mich.
At this point / interrupted her. |
said '1 think he has crossed the riv-
er into Canada" She informed me
to the contrary |. mention this for
the purpose of impressing upon you
the fact previously expressed. viz,
clairvoyant is not influenced by a sug-
gestion as is one who is merely hyp-
Noticed and does not pass beyond that
stage.
To resume She said: 81 see him
go up Jefferson avenue (she had
never been there) l see him turn
down Woodward avenue, then out
Griswold street, then to the left on
Clinton street. and he is now in a
story-and-a-half house (giving the
number.
Again l interrupted her by asking
her how she knew 1t was Detroit and
how she knew the names of the
streets. To this she replied (mark
her words): 81 move among the
throng, but they know 1t not l can
not talk with them. but / can see.
saw the name of the station and, on
the lamp posts, l read the names of
the streets; in fact, Just the same as
ii l were there in body. But / have
not told you all. Listen He has
shaved off his whiskers and has as
sumed another name"
/ asked for the assumed name and
she gave it without hesitancy The
next day l called on the wife, gave her
a diagram of her husbands move
ments, the number of the house and
his assumed name. She sent friend
to communicate with him. He found
him without difficulty. He inquired
for him first by his right name, but
was informed that no such person
was there; then by his assumed name.
He was ushered into his presence. He
was, as described whiskerless.
Truly this was remarkable, and the
more so as first experience. Was it
telepathy or clairvoyance? In this
case, as in the previous one. am
frank to admit that all the knowledge
obtained may have been telepathically
received; but was it?
Premonitions and Impressions.
All premonitions are impressions,
but all impressions are not Fremont
TONS An impression may be the fore
casting of pleasurable event; pre-
monition is the foreshadowing of ap-
preaching danger or evil. 1t does not
follow, however, that the event fore
shadowed is inevitable. The shadow
is merely to warn you of imminent
, peril which, if you are wise. you will
divert by needing the warning.
Do not mistake imagination for pre-
monition. All premonitions are intui-
tive, and all intuitions are correct.
Whenever you are in doubt, it is not
intuition; intuition never doubts.
When anyone asks you, What makes
you think so?" and you can answer
with positive assurance, II do not
think it, know it," that is a true i'm
preston on which you may rely.
Is it possible to foretell the future?
Only in limited degree. think that
God, in His all-wise providence, has
dropped the curtain between us and
the future in the general, everyday
affairs OF life; but upon certain occas-
ions. as in approaching danger, He
kindly lifts the curtain to give US.
fair warning that we may avert that
which would otherwise prove disas-
trous.
How does He acquaint US with this
fact? BY a special dispensation of
providence? l think not. God is no
respecter of persons. That which we
call soul" is but a spark of the All
Soul. 1t possesses all the potentiali-
ties of God Himself, but in a much
lesser degree-in the proportion of
the spark to the whole.
The subjective mind is the mind of
the soul; the highest faculty Is intui- ]
