the property. Yes, he died without
telling any of us about them, and, so
far, all search for them has been
without avail. 1 now know why
have been so anxious to pass into this
condition. The longing has been
fully satisfied, and l am ready to re-
turn"
Then, by word, called her back
to her normal condition. The tears
had not yet dried upon her cheeks.
and as she brushed them away she
expressed surprise at their presence.
She did not, in reality, suffer; nor
does anyone in that condition.
The next day she wrote home; all
the impressions of the previous night
came readily to her. In a few days
came letter from the old home
which proved the accuracy of her
clairvoyance; yes, to the minutest
detail.
Let us reason together a moment
Was this clairvoyance or telepathy I?
AS for myself, 1 think it plausible
possible and probable that ere the
death of the father he had been sub.
jectively in telepathic communication
with his daughter; neither being OBJ
jectively conscious of it.
But what about the changes that
had taken place since the death OF
the father? They, too, may have been
GEOGRAPHICALLY transmitted by some
member of the family.
We really cannot or should not say
that it was not telepathy, if it can
be thus accounted for. Nor can we
or should we deny the possibility OF
clairvoyance. If it was clairvoyance
then the subjective mind clearly per
ceived the changes that had taken
place and the putting away of the
papers. OF one thing you may rest
assured, viz: She thought she saw
and she thought she was there.
Some very interesting questions
arise here. Let us consider them
Was she there? Could she be in
Iowa and Texas at the same time !!
Mark her words: Il am ready to come
that she thought she was still there
Note how amenable to suggestion is
the subjective mind when the sub
ject is under hypnotic control. Ihad
previously said: you may go There
you DESIRE" The going naturally i'm
piled the coming back. But when
said: How can you say 81 am there,
when you are conversing with ME
here? she said: Everywhere is here
She had now passed beyond the state
known as hypnotic, beyond the state
of amenability to suggestion, and the
Ego assumed control; therefore the
response which proved so conclusive
ly the omnipresence of the soul:
Everywhere is here"
IT'S true, the soul takes no cogni
out or does it look out? This is a
question that has caused much con
troversy. 1t seems to me that it is
best answered by the soul itself:
Everywhere is here"
Why did the lady insist on being hyp
Noticed and so strongly desire the clair
voyant condition? Because the subjec
tive mind held message of importance
which it wished to convey and there
fore impelled her to seize this oppor
tunity. If she could have become suf
ficiently passive Collectively she
would have received it. Had she
gone to a psychic, the psychic would
have received it GEOGRAPHICALLY from
her, and then delivered the message
as if coming from the father. She
would also have described the father
perceiving the mental image held
unconsciously, by the daughter. Fur.
thermore, she = might-have-been
honest in it all, from her view point
The question has been asked times
without number: What is the differ
ence in the condition of one who is
hypnotized and one who is clair.
voyant?
Hypnotism is condition of hallu
cination, the subject being wholly I'M
der the control of the operator, and
as such, accepts any suggestion given
that is not in violation of his settled
principles. Whereas, the clairvoyant
passes through and beyond the hyp
motto state and conditions pertaining
thereto, becomes wholly independent
is no longer governed by suggestion
because the initiative is in the
ascendancy, yet will return to normal
condition-that of objective conscious
ness-at the call of the operator.
Perhaps / can better illustrate il
as follows: When boy flies a kite
he cannot control it's motion when
once he let's it out, but he can draw
it back at will. So it is with the one
who becomes clairvoyant. The string
is to the kite what hypnotism is to
clairvoyance-the means whereby
freedom is attained. AS the boy can
send out and draw back the kite al
will, but cannot otherwise control il
when out, so 1 can send out and re-
call my subject at will, but cannot
otherwise control or guide when the
soul is on it's mission.
