INTERIOR VISION. 29
of native powers, culminating in somnambulic vision through the Mmesmeric processes, and the comprehension and application of the principles that underlie and overflow humar nature and the physical universe, together with a knowledge of the principia of the vast spirit-sea whereon the worlds of space are cushioned. Thus true clairvoyance generally is knowledge resulting from experi ment, born of agony, and purified by the baptism of fire.
It may require a special examination in certain cases to determine whether the person is best fitted, naturally, for a sympathist, or psychometer, truly such in any one of a thousand phases, or for a clairvoyant in any particular degree. To go blindly to work is but to waste your time and effort to no purpose whatever. If your natural bent, organization, and genius best fit you for one particular thing, it were folly to attempt to force yourself into another path.
Never begin a course of experiments unless you intend to carry them on to certain success. To begin a course of magnetic experiments, and become tired in a fortnight because you do not succeed, is absurd. Mesmeric circles are, all things considered, prob— ably the quickest way to reach practical results in a short time.
In the attempt to reach clairvoyance, most people are altogether in too great a hurry to reach grand results, and in that haste neglect the very means required, permitting the mind to wander all over creation, — from the consideration of a miserable love affair of no account whatever, to an exploration of the mysteries enshrouding the great nebula of Orion or Centauri. Now that won’tdo. If one wants to be able to peruse the life-scroll of others, the first thing learned must be the steady fixing of mind and purpose, aim and intent upon a single point, wholly void of other thought or object. The second requirement is, Think the thing closely; and third, will steadily, jfirmly, to know the correct solution of the problem in hand, and then the probabilities are a hundred to ten that the vision thereof, or the PHANTORAMA of it, will pass before you like a vivid dream; or it will flash across your mind with resistless conviction of truth.
Mechanical or magnetic means may be used to facilitate results, but never by fhe opiates or narcotics. Lured by what Cahagnet wrote about the use of narcotic agents, and strengthened in the hope by what THeorHits Gautier, Bayarp Taytor, Fitz Huen
