"Telepathy," we are told, lis the
Sympathetic affection of one mind by
the thoughts, feelings or emotions of
another at distance, without COM
munication through the ordinary
channels of sensation
This is proof, therefore, that the
communications are, or, at least, may
be lnvo1itiOnal. The word distance"
may be misleading. Telepathic CON-
munications take place between per-
sons in the same city, or the same
house, or, in fact, in the same room,
as we'll as between persons in dis
tan. cities; yet equally as well be-
tween persons a thousand miles apart
! as between those in each others pres
ence.
When we speak of these things be-
ing done without communication
through the ordinary channels" it is
necessary that we recognize man in
his dual nature, especially what is
known as the duality of mind. This
term is also misleading. Instead of
duality Of mind-two phases of one
mind - we should consider dual
minds; /. e., two separate and dis.
tinct minds.

mind is the function of the brain.
It is the everyday business mind;
the mind that operates through the
five physical senses. It comes with
the body, develops with the body,

the body for it's existence. It con-

The subjective mind (the soul
mind is distinct entity. It controls
all of the silent, involuntary and veg

pend upon the body for it's existence.

How to Communicate Telepathically
Although communications are con
stantly taking place without objective
consciousness. it does not follow that
one may not direct his messages al
will. This is especially applicable
to what is known as absent treat
ment," which. by the way. has suffered
much at the hands of pretenders a
well AZ at the hands Of those who
having the knowledge, misused and
overused it through mercenary mo
tives.
