![]() ![]() He is more occupied to-day in building implements for the destruction of life than he is in the problems of life itself, or in the finding out of those laws which create, control, and sustain life. In pursuit of the laws, which have controlled thought in recent centuries, man has, in earning his successes on the physical and mechanical plane, forgotten the loss he has sustained from the lack of study and observation on the occult or psychic side of humanity. In our age the physical and mechanical sciences have called for the greatest attention, yet such things as wireless communication and radium, to-day household words, have been stumbled across by so-called chance.Īlready wireless communication has saved hundreds of lives, radium has done likewise, the mysteries of yesterday have become the commonplaces of today, and so knowledge in the eternal fitness of things becomes the servant of those who serve. That there is an occult or hidden part in actual relation to human life is on every side a conceded fact, but before this mystery-the greatest of all-the majority of thinkers have held themselves aloof. It is admitted by all that the occult side of things has been the one side of life the least explored or investigated. In presenting this book to the public I need then offer no other apology for so doing, than that of having been a student of this particular branch of thought for a very long period, and having proved so-called theories by countless experiments and experiences, I feel I am at last in a position to give to the world at large the result of such studies. To the student of Science, what is magic to the uninitiated becomes a natural phenomenon with general laws, governed by rules or calculations that all who choose can learn and understand. To the student of Biology every leaf tells its own story, every tree its age, every flower its own pedigree. To the student of Art, Art reveals her mysteries of color, form, design, pose, and a thousand and one subtleties that escape the ordinary observer. It naturally follows that if a person should make a special study of any one subject, from long experience and studious research, he will in the end unravel, at least to some extent, the so-called mysteries of the subject on which he has so concentrated his attention.
