Welcome to the Reality
0:08
Revolution. Today we are
0:10
going to discuss the ancient secret of
0:13
telepathy. We have an amazing
0:15
series on our channel
0:18
devoted to the ancient secrets taught
0:20
by the Rosicrucians. A
0:23
group that collected ancient
0:25
historical teachings from all over
0:27
the world, tested them
0:29
and utilized them. This
0:32
secret knowledge has remained within
0:34
the Rosicrucian teachings for centuries.
0:38
They have tested and developed specific
0:40
techniques to utilize the
0:42
projection of psychic energy, creating
0:45
abundance and a whole variety of other
0:47
factors. Recently we
0:49
discussed the ancient secrets to healing. Each
0:53
of these we have learned some powerful techniques that people
0:55
have come back to me and said when
0:57
they tried these techniques it worked. This
1:00
is grounded in spiritual
1:02
research over time and
1:04
one thing that the
1:07
Rosicrucians are very good at is
1:09
teaching telepathy. Utilizing
1:11
specific techniques that can be
1:13
incorporated, they have
1:15
a way of breaking down how to be telepathic
1:17
in the ways that it works. We
1:21
are all telepathic I believe, but
1:23
we all simply don't understand how it works
1:25
and how to utilize this amazing power. I
1:28
believe over time as we enter into this new
1:30
earth we will become even
1:33
more and more aware of our own
1:35
telepathic power. This
1:38
comes from a book by Joseph
1:41
Weed who was
1:44
also a Rosicrucian and taught these
1:46
Rosicrucian techniques called Wisdom of the
1:49
Mystic Masters. How
1:51
to understand and use telepathy.
2:00
It is amazingly important for you
2:02
to know if and when you are
2:04
responding to telepathic suggestions and
2:06
even consciously to employ telepathy yourself.
2:09
The very fact that you are
2:12
interested in this topic is
2:15
an indication that you have the ability
2:17
to receive and send mental telepathic messages.
2:20
There are many kinds of telepathy and mental
2:22
telepathy, is only one of them. Very
2:25
speaking, there are three broad
2:27
classifications of telepathic communication. These
2:30
are 1. The telepathy which
2:32
takes place within the individual. Usually
2:35
this is a form of communication between the
2:37
higher self and the brain. This
2:39
is stressed in the Rosicrucian teachings
2:41
and is described as cosmic contact.
2:46
Telepathic communication between individuals which
2:48
we will study. And 3. Telepathy
2:51
between groups or between an individual and a
2:54
group. For you, as
2:56
an individual, the most important area for you
2:58
to develop is the interplay between your soul,
3:00
mind and brain. If
3:03
you can establish clear channels of
3:05
communication among these three levels of
3:07
your consciousness, you will be on
3:09
the verge of a breakthrough into cosmic awareness
3:11
or cosmic consciousness. This
3:13
requires special training which I will describe.
3:16
The present chapter concerns itself
3:19
with telepathic communication between
3:22
individuals. Much false and
3:24
misleading information is in circulation about
3:26
telepathy and as a result
3:29
many mistaken notions and vague ideas exist
3:31
concerning it. So I will
3:33
start with fundamentals. Four
3:35
types of telepathic communication between
3:37
individuals are possible. These
3:39
are 1. Emotional telepathy. The
3:42
connection is between the solar plexus centers
3:44
of the individuals involved. It is
3:46
largely to do with feeling. Between
3:50
mind and mind or mental telepathy. This
3:52
is what you are to study and learn. Between
3:55
soul and soul in advanced study. Between
3:58
any two or three of these aspects. The most common
4:01
form of telepathic communication is, of course,
4:03
that between the solar plexus centers
4:06
of two or more individuals. This
4:08
is sometimes called instinctive telepathy. It
4:11
occurs when emotions or feelings
4:13
are strongly held and corresponding radiations
4:15
are transmitted from the solar plexus center.
4:18
When direct physical contact exists or when
4:20
the auras of two or more individuals blend together,
4:24
the transmission is affected. It
4:26
rarely occurs at a distance, but when it does, under the urge of some
4:29
powerful emotional stimulus,
4:31
it is transmitted on the astral level, not the mental. This
4:36
emotional or instinctive telepathy may
4:38
occur between the unthinking and undeveloped beings,
4:41
between humans and animals, and in some cases between animals.
4:45
In addition to the interplay between average
4:47
humans, it is not a transmission of thoughts and
4:50
words, but a feeling of self-doubt. It
4:54
is not a transmission of thoughts and words, but
4:56
of feelings. Menace, fear,
4:58
friendliness, harmlessness, or love may
5:00
all be experienced in this
5:02
way. Such communication exists between
5:04
mother and child and is the manner in
5:07
which the emotional body of the child is
5:09
created by its parents just as surely
5:11
as is the physical body. It
5:14
is found in the theater when the star sways
5:16
the audience and makes them laugh or cry. In
5:19
this case, the individuals in the
5:21
audience also exchange emotional reactions with
5:23
each other in response to
5:26
the stimulus provided by the performer, and
5:28
it is one of the reasons why they are likely
5:31
to panic if fire or any
5:33
other danger threatens. It
5:35
is also this type of telepathy
5:37
which is found dominating the average
5:39
spiritualistic séance. The people are
5:41
urged to sit close together sometimes with hands
5:43
or arms touching to form a circle. Telepathy
5:46
facilitates the free flow of solar plexus
5:48
energy throughout the group. Their
5:51
feelings, worries, sorrows, and desires become
5:53
apparent and are introduced as part
5:55
of this so-called reading. This
5:57
emotional telepathy was the earliest mode of communication
6:00
between man and man in
6:02
antedated speech. Originally
6:05
it concerned itself only
6:07
with self-preservation and self-production
6:09
and manifested chiefly as
6:12
a type of inner sensation. Today
6:14
it still lingers in a higher form and you
6:17
have often heard, I have a feeling this is
6:19
going to happen or I felt you were going
6:21
to call. You should make a
6:24
positive effort to elevate this type
6:26
of sensitivity to a higher stage of feeling, work
6:29
toward communication from heart to heart and
6:31
thus develop a compassionate interest in
6:34
others. Mental telepathy
6:36
The second type of telepathic communication
6:39
between individuals that from mind
6:41
of one to the mind of another is
6:43
what we are concerned with here. Let
6:46
me point out to you at the very
6:48
outset that the more thoroughly emotion
6:50
and feeling and strong desire are eliminated
6:53
the more accurately and successful will your
6:55
experiment become. Typically
6:57
the strong desire to achieve success
7:00
in telepathic work or
7:02
the fear of failure is a sure way to neutralize
7:04
the very best effort. Any
7:06
emotion in the receiver tends
7:09
to create streams of energy which radiate
7:11
out from him and act as a
7:13
shield or buffer which prevent
7:15
the incoming mental energies from making
7:17
contact in somewhat the same
7:19
manner worry or anxiety on
7:21
the part of the sender will turn
7:23
his outgoing thought back on himself like
7:25
a boomerang. Therefore,
7:28
the first consideration should be the attainment
7:31
of the proper attitude. Try
7:33
to cultivate a spirit of don't care or
7:35
non-attachment. Emotionally you
7:37
should feel that it is not important to
7:39
you whether the experiment succeeds or not. This
7:42
is another way of saying that your attention
7:44
or your consciousness should be focused in the
7:46
mind and brain. This
7:48
can best be achieved by a person who
7:51
has learned to concentrate and direct his thoughts.
8:00
are prepared to succeed. Today,
8:02
the capacity for mental telepathy
8:04
is becoming increasingly evident. Instinctive
8:07
telepathic work is still the easiest path
8:09
for most, and this possibility
8:12
must always be watched for and
8:14
guarded against. Not that it
8:16
is wrong or bad, but it makes for confusion. The
8:19
solar plexus is still exceedingly active in most
8:21
of us, and therefore the
8:23
earliest successful attempts will usually be a
8:25
mixture of emotional and mental
8:27
telepathy. Frequently, the sender will
8:30
project a message quite properly through the
8:32
throat center, but the recipient
8:34
with an active solar plexus will get it two
8:36
ways. The results in an
8:38
emotional interpretation of the message
8:41
not intended, and not
8:43
in the sender's mind, but solely in the
8:45
aura of the recipient. For example, the sender
8:47
may project the message hurry or make
8:50
haste, having in mind nothing more
8:52
than the speeding up of the
8:54
recipient's efforts to learn the telepathic
8:56
process. The receiver, however, even
8:58
though he correctly apprehends the idea of
9:01
make haste, is likely
9:03
to surround it with all sorts
9:05
of dire emotional pictures drawn from
9:07
his own worry storehouse. He
9:09
will experience a sense of frustration because
9:11
he is not proceeding faster. He will
9:14
fear he is failing because he is not fast
9:16
enough. He will feel
9:18
resentment at the circumstances which he
9:20
believes retard his progress. In
9:22
short, he will find himself in
9:24
a complete emotional turmoil because of
9:27
the implied urgency in the message
9:29
make haste. Thus you
9:31
see how important it is to have developed
9:33
your powers of concentration to
9:35
a point where it is possible to
9:37
hold the attention or consciousness on
9:39
a mental level and dissolve or
9:42
drop off all emotional interference. To
9:45
have fruitful results, the head
9:47
centers of both sender and
9:49
receiver must be consciously and
9:52
deliberately employed. Likewise, both
9:54
parties must be relaxed and ready. If
9:57
one party is under an emotional strain, he is
9:59
a very likely not to be properly responsive,
10:02
although he may have the best intentions or
10:05
again if one or the other is occupied
10:07
with a mental problem of his own,
10:09
he may be encased
10:11
in a wall of thought forms which will
10:13
effectively prevent any message from either getting out
10:16
or coming in. There
10:19
are many problems, as you can
10:21
well realize, and the cultivation of
10:23
a form of detachment is essential
10:25
to success. However, let
10:27
us assume that we are successful in this and
10:29
proceed to the next step. It
10:32
has been said that a good telepathic interrelation
10:34
will grow through the medium
10:36
of a constant attitude of
10:39
reflective thought and a steadfast love for
10:41
each other. Love
10:43
here does not refer to personal physical
10:45
love, but to its highest
10:48
counterpart, which recognizes all personality weaknesses
10:50
and failings but dismisses them as
10:52
unimportant in relation to the shining
10:54
light of the true and herself.
10:57
These two factors of reflective thought
10:59
and steadfast love cannot
11:01
be developed overnight, and they
11:04
are not possible between any two
11:06
given persons. They represent
11:08
an ultimate, an ideal, and we are
11:10
only at the beginning, but
11:12
we must make a start so what is needed
11:14
is a technique. In
11:16
planning this technique, we must bear in
11:18
mind that in telepathy we are dealing
11:20
with matter and energy in just the
11:22
same way as when we build a
11:25
house or construct a railroad. True,
11:27
we deal with a different type of energy and
11:30
a much finer grade of matter, but they
11:32
are still matter and energy and obey the
11:34
laws of matter and energy. Always
11:37
remember this. The Technique
11:39
of Telepathy In telepathy,
11:41
we will be dealing with 1. The
11:43
Force of Love 2. The Force of
11:45
Mind 3. Primal Energy
11:47
in the Following Manner 1. The
11:50
Force of Love attracts the needed material with
11:53
which to clothe the idea, thought,
11:56
or concept to be transmitted, thus
11:58
producing a coherent mind. You
12:01
must realize that when you conceive an idea
12:03
or frame a mental concept, you
12:05
are actually gathering together and compressing into one
12:08
place a portion of primal
12:10
energy. In order
12:12
to hold that portion together long
12:14
enough for it to be transmitted to another, you
12:17
must encase it in a capsule or compress
12:19
it together in some way. This
12:22
is where the force of love is needed,
12:24
for love is a magnetic or attractive force
12:27
of great power, and it causes the
12:29
elements in the idea to cohere for
12:31
a length of time that
12:33
is in direct ratio to the amount
12:35
of love force supplied. The
12:38
force of love is also used by the
12:40
recipient to attract the thought form or
12:42
idea or message to himself after
12:45
it has been released by the sender. This
12:47
is done by the recipients concentrating on
12:49
the sender in a loving way, and
12:52
sending the warmth of his
12:54
love to the sender. You
12:56
can see from this how difficult the
12:58
transmission would become if the
13:01
slightest dislike or disapproval was
13:03
permitted to exist between the
13:05
sender and recipient. This
13:07
is why such emphasis is placed
13:09
upon loving and non-critical attitude. The
13:13
force of mind is necessary to literally
13:15
light the way for an idea or
13:18
thought form to be transmitted and received.
13:20
While the simile of light is nearer to
13:23
the actual manifestation, it will probably be clearer
13:25
if I liken the mind to the
13:28
telephone company which, after receiving the number
13:30
from the sender, proceeds to select the
13:32
proper lines and connections out of the
13:34
many million available. The
13:36
exact lines which will make the connection with
13:39
the recipient. In fact, light
13:41
is used, it is a most subtle
13:43
substance as well as the very obvious
13:45
one, and the energy of the mind
13:47
can materialize on a beam of light. In
13:50
the last year or so, scientists have been
13:52
experimenting with the idea of modulating laser beams
13:54
in much the same manner that a radio
13:57
wave is modulated and sent out by a
13:59
broadcasting station. Herein
14:01
is a most important clue to
14:03
successful mental telepathic communication.
14:06
A so-called line of sight alignment tube
14:09
of light, like a laser broom, is set
14:11
up between the brains and minds of the
14:13
sender and recipient. The light
14:15
from the sender's mind must project like a
14:18
beam or beacon, and upon this ray the
14:20
message will travel truly to its intended mark.
14:23
Of course, the recipient must exert the
14:25
magnetic power of love to attract attention,
14:28
produce an alignment, and create
14:30
attunement. The
14:34
primal energy inherent in the vital body of
14:36
the receiver reacts to the energies
14:38
of love and will as they make their dual
14:40
impact. This causes the
14:42
recipient's brain to first become
14:44
passive and receptive and then
14:46
gradually awaken to a response activity. The
14:49
message or idea is then swept into
14:51
the area of conscious awareness and
14:54
realized by the recipient. I
14:56
might point out here that as you advance in
14:58
this work you will frequently experience a delayed action.
15:01
If you are close to some person or
15:03
have been working telepathically with a person, you may
15:06
send you a message at a time not
15:08
previously arranged. You may be involved
15:10
in work or in some other way at the
15:12
time and your attention completely focused on
15:15
what you are doing and in such cases
15:17
the message may be properly received and stored
15:19
then released at a later time in your
15:21
conscious mind when it is at rest. Looking
15:25
in mind the foregoing, the technique
15:27
to be employed should be as follows. The sender
15:29
must 1. Send out
15:31
love to the recipient while visualizing his face or
15:33
name. Focus
15:36
his full attention on the mental level
15:38
and quiet all emotions. Visualize
15:41
the message or idea. Then
15:44
send it forth on a stream of love to the
15:46
recipient. Dismiss
15:49
all thought of the process from his
15:51
mind with the feeling that the communication
15:53
has been successfully transmitted. The
15:56
recipient should 1. Send out
15:58
a stream of love to the sender. This
16:01
can be visualized as if he were reaching out his
16:03
hand to touch him, and at
16:05
the same time feeling the warmth of love for
16:07
him. By
16:09
use of the will, lift his consciousness to
16:11
the mental level and hold it there,
16:14
free from all emotional stress. Relax
16:17
and assume in an attitude of indifference,
16:20
not eagerness. This release, the
16:23
psychic energy in his body, to be impressed
16:25
and molded by the incoming thought
16:27
form. There
16:29
you have it. That is the technique, the
16:32
whole technique. It seems simple. It
16:34
is simple. The only difficult part is in
16:36
the training the mind, the motions
16:38
in the body to play the right part at the
16:40
right time. This is like learning
16:42
to paint or play the piano. Control
16:46
is involved and this takes practice and
16:49
work. In the beginning it would
16:51
be best if the sender and recipient are in
16:53
the same room or in adjoining rooms. Then
16:56
the sender can notify the receiver when he
16:58
is starting to send by giving a
17:00
signal such as a tap of a pencil or the sounding
17:02
of a bell, and can give
17:04
some corresponding signal when he finishes. To
17:07
start a simple visualization is best. Let
17:09
the sender picture in his mind a clear-cut
17:12
geometric figure such as a
17:14
circle, triangle, a
17:16
square, or a star. Tell
17:19
the recipient in advance it will be a geometric
17:21
figure in order to facilitate the opening
17:23
of the channel. Obviously
17:25
this type of advance warning has no
17:27
place in true telepathic transmission, but
17:30
in the beginning it is important to facilitate
17:32
matters in order to establish confidence. The
17:35
sender should be able to get a good clear
17:37
visualization in about 30 seconds. He
17:39
should try to hold it for about another 30 seconds,
17:41
not more, then release it and put it
17:43
out of his mind. Sometimes
17:46
it helps to draw these symbols on pieces
17:48
of paper, one symbol to one sheet, and
17:50
then hold one sheet only before the eye
17:53
of the sender to help him see it
17:55
clearly in his mind's eye. In
17:58
fact, it is a good idea for the sender to see it clearly in his mind's eye. not
18:00
to see any of the other symbols for at least
18:02
five minutes before he starts to send. The
18:05
mind is an odd instrument when it is
18:07
not completely understood, and it is quite possible
18:09
for the sender to be looking at one
18:11
symbol and be thinking of another if he
18:13
is not careful. As
18:15
pointed out earlier, do not try hard
18:18
to do this. A
18:21
relaxed and I-don't-care attitude is best.
18:24
Never work for more than thirty minutes
18:26
at first and only extend that time
18:28
when you are achieving obvious success, then
18:31
you can start sending a more complex message
18:33
at first. Have
18:36
the sender look at a picture in
18:38
a magazine, an
18:41
advertisement for example, and after it has been
18:43
projected, ask the receiver to A. Describe
18:45
the picture or B. Tell what colors were
18:47
in it or C. What objects could be
18:50
discerned. As you realize,
18:52
this is a quite sophisticated transmission and
18:54
requires both skill and a good degree
18:57
of attunement. Try words
18:59
and sentences also and proceed to make this
19:01
more complicated as you find that the simple
19:03
words are easily registered. After
19:06
you have achieved a degree of success working with
19:08
a companion in the same room, try
19:11
sending and receiving at a distance. Select
19:14
a person in another part of the city or
19:16
better still in another city and
19:18
decide on a specific day and time for
19:20
the experiment. Do not
19:22
spend more than ten minutes sending or trying
19:24
to receive. Then stop and
19:27
check for results. This can be done by
19:29
telephone or mail. Keep working with
19:31
this until you succeed. It is
19:33
no more difficult than working with someone in the
19:35
same room, but you may find
19:37
it so because of your imagination. In
19:40
the medium you are using, distance is not a factor,
19:42
but in the physical it is. Since
19:45
all of your conscious acts are limited by
19:47
time and distance, it is easy
19:49
to fall into the trap of believing that
19:51
you or mental transmission and reception will be
19:54
so impeded. Once you overcome
19:56
this idea, you will find it just as quick and
19:58
easy as transmission in the same room. same room. A
20:02
demonstration of telepathy picture transmission. The
20:05
Rosicrucian Lodges in various cities have classes
20:07
in telepathy about once a month. The
20:10
students usually are beginners who are being
20:12
trained in the proper technique of
20:15
reception. An advanced member skilled
20:17
in sending images will preside over the
20:19
class and conduct the instruction. He
20:22
does not attempt a one-to-one relationship as
20:24
described earlier, but radiates the image in
20:27
all directions, not unlike the
20:29
broadcasting from a television station. A
20:32
great variety of exercises are given
20:34
which make it possible to emphasize
20:37
different aspects of reception. Let
20:39
me describe one of these sessions. A
20:41
sender, in this case a woman, a practicing
20:43
psychologist, presided over the class and acted
20:45
as a sender. She stood
20:48
on a platform which was raised about a
20:50
foot above floor level and the students, about
20:52
60 of them, sat in chairs facing her.
20:55
Before her was a lectern and on it,
20:57
seen only by herself, was a picture in
20:59
full color and advertisements which she
21:01
had clipped from a current magazine. Mountains,
21:04
sharp cascades of rock, dominated
21:07
the picture with green trees partway
21:09
up their slopes and a blue lake at their feet.
21:12
When all the students were comfortably seated, the teacher
21:15
opened the class. She began
21:17
with a short lecture on the principle and
21:19
laws involved, explaining that she
21:21
could gaze intently at a picture and
21:23
register each detail of that picture in
21:25
her mind. Then she would
21:27
energize with love the reflection of the picture in
21:29
her consciousness and by the power of
21:31
her will radiated outward. She said,
21:34
I will concentrate on this picture for three
21:36
minutes until I am sure I have included
21:38
all its details in the image I am
21:40
about to create. Then for
21:42
the next three minutes I will send the
21:44
picture to you, to all of you, in
21:47
order to put you in a receptive mood
21:49
and raise your vibrations from the nagging physical
21:51
and emotional turbulence which you have brought
21:53
along with you for your busy day. We
21:56
will first intone the vowel sound, om.
22:00
three times on the note of
22:02
D natural above the middle C. Now
22:05
sit comfortably and relax when the
22:07
intonation is completed. I will
22:09
proceed immediately to the experiment. The
22:12
note of D was struck on the piano,
22:14
and all present sang out the ome in
22:17
full voice. To a person
22:19
not acquainted with the procedure, it probably sounded
22:21
like a mixed group of poorly trained voices
22:24
at choir practice, but the effect
22:26
was different. As the
22:28
last, lingering sound of the third
22:30
intonation died away, a quiet
22:33
and peace settled over the group, and
22:35
a slight charging of the atmosphere
22:37
in the room became noticeable. In
22:39
this electric silence the experiment started. For
22:42
six minutes all was still. No
22:44
one coughed. No one moved. Each
22:47
student was relaxed, but intensely aware. Finally
22:50
the sender looked up, smiled, and said, Who
22:53
got anything? Only
22:55
hands went up all over the room. The
22:58
newest and least experienced were the first,
23:00
as usual. One said, I
23:03
saw mountains, and when the instructorus smiled
23:05
and nodded ascent, he was
23:07
encouraged and added, Blue mountains. No,
23:10
they're not blue, he was told, but there is
23:12
blue in the picture. I know,
23:14
said another, there is blue sky beyond the mountains,
23:17
and the water in the foreground reflects the blue as
23:19
well. Good, said the teacher. That is
23:21
a very clear pickup, now someone else. And
23:23
so when all around the room, some adding details
23:25
correctly, some mentioning items that were not in the
23:28
picture at all. An example
23:30
of how errors creep in came when one young
23:32
man said, I saw a frosted
23:34
glass full of reddish brown liquid with
23:36
the name Coca-Cola across it. The
23:39
teacher said, no, that is not in the
23:41
picture, but almost simultaneously a young man nearby.
23:44
Another student said, oh, I guess that is my
23:46
fault. My mind was wondering and being thirsty. I
23:49
thought how good a long, cool drink would be. I
23:51
guess I must have accompanied the wish with a picture of what
23:54
I had in mind. Obviously
23:56
you did, said the instructor dryly. Anyone
23:59
else? Before long, not more than 15 minutes,
24:01
the entire picture was described in all its
24:03
details. As
24:06
far as could be observed, no one student
24:08
saw the picture in entirety, but the group
24:10
together certainly did. The colors, the
24:12
green of the trees, the slate gray of the
24:14
rocks, the two peaks jutting skyward, the
24:17
blue of the sky above, and the lake below were
24:19
seen by many,
24:21
the tiny configurations and minute details
24:23
by but a few. This
24:26
was a typical training session, not an unusual
24:28
or difficult performance, but one designed to instruct
24:30
the new students and most of all to
24:33
give them the confidence that they too can
24:35
actually receive the mental impressions from another. There
24:38
is no doubt that at first this can be done more
24:40
easily and more successfully in
24:42
such a group of like-minded students
24:45
working under the direction of a
24:47
skilled instructorist, but it may also
24:49
be done by you working with one other
24:51
person or with a small group. Do
24:53
not attempt more than three or four at first.
24:56
Everyone has his own ideas and his
24:59
own emotional problems, and where
25:01
there are too many untrained minds
25:03
present, no satisfactory results can be
25:05
expected. Verbal
25:07
Telepathic Communication Beforegoing experiment
25:10
involved the transmission of a picture. No
25:13
ideas or messages were included. Sending a picture
25:15
is simpler and easier than trying to
25:17
transmit a message or an idea. A
25:19
picture is a direct visual experience. There is no
25:21
mistaking what you see. This
25:23
makes possible certain purity of sending,
25:26
which is more difficult to attain when
25:28
you try to transmit a message. A
25:31
message involves words, and words in themselves
25:33
are symbols. A double process
25:35
is therefore required at each end. The
25:37
idea or thought must be couched in words
25:39
which accurately express it in the mind of
25:41
the sender. The word or words
25:44
are then sent, and when
25:46
received they must be decoded
25:48
by the receiver and translated
25:50
back into ideas or
25:52
thoughts. Even when this has
25:54
been done, there is no guarantee
25:56
that your interpretation of the word received
25:58
is the one which the sender intended
26:00
to endow it when it was sent
26:03
to you. It is true
26:05
this hazard also exists in oral speech, but
26:07
to a lesser degree. A single word is
26:09
seldom spoken. Usually there
26:11
is a rush of language with each word supported by
26:14
the ones that preceded it, and those
26:16
that follow and all are enhanced by intonation
26:18
and the magic of the speaker's personality.
26:21
Because of this more involved technique and verbal telepathy,
26:24
and the increased possibility of error, the training
26:26
is much more rigorous. You
26:28
must begin with single words. Not
26:31
before you have acquired assurance in
26:33
sending one word at a time,
26:35
and you contemplate sending sentences, much
26:38
less complete ideas. Patanjali
26:40
the great Hindu sage and teacher
26:42
recommends the following technique. Study
26:46
the form of the word. Study it
26:48
symbolically as a word picture. Study
26:51
it from the angle of quality, of beauty, of
26:54
desire. Study
26:57
its underlying purpose and teaching value, as
26:59
well as its mental appeal. Study
27:04
its very being and attempt to identify
27:06
yourself with its divine underlying idea. As
27:10
you can see, the process gradually lifts your
27:12
consideration of the word to ever higher levels
27:14
in your consciousness. When you
27:16
have achieved the highest possible, then send out the
27:18
word to the receiver, who in
27:20
turn should endeavor to maintain his attention
27:23
on the highest mental level of which he is capable.
27:26
In sending, it is frequently helpful if
27:28
the sender will actually articulate the word
27:31
softly and clearly as he releases it
27:33
from his consciousness. The
27:35
art of communicating with one another has come a
27:37
long way. It started with a
27:39
sense of touch a million, maybe two million years
27:41
ago. The next step was
27:44
sound, not words, but cries of joy,
27:46
of pain, gurgles of ecstasy,
27:48
groans of anguish. Next
27:50
came symbols, gestures of the arms
27:52
and body, indications of the head.
27:55
The sign language of the American Indian
27:57
is a sophisticated outgrowth of
27:59
this earlier method. of communication by
28:01
signs, which antedated speech. Hundreds
28:05
of thousands of years elapsed between
28:07
the first groping efforts to communicate by
28:09
touch and the articulation of words.
28:12
Words then grew into sentences and
28:15
sentences into language. Eventually
28:17
writing developed, first as a representation
28:19
of the gestures of sign communication.
28:22
Then as pictures of events,
28:24
finally these earlier pictures became
28:26
conventionalized into letters and words.
28:29
The various arts marked man's next step
28:31
upward in his efforts to convey
28:33
his thoughts and impressions to
28:36
others. Sculpture
28:38
crude at first, then becoming more stylized,
28:41
followed by music and then by painting and
28:43
poetry. This is where the world stands
28:45
today. The higher means of communication
28:47
still to be mastered are telepathy,
28:50
which we study here, inspiration
28:52
and eventually illumination. Yes,
28:55
these are the last forms of communication as
28:57
you will realize if you consider them for
28:59
a moment. True, they are
29:01
not the man-to-man communication of telepathy, but
29:03
refer to a man's ability to make
29:05
contact with and draw upon
29:08
realms of knowledge beyond our
29:10
most fantastic imagining. Illumination
29:13
comes only as a result of tremendous
29:15
control and vast development. This
29:18
is well beyond the average individual,
29:20
but everyone above a certain mental
29:22
level does experience flashes of inspiration.
29:25
This latent ability can be developed and I
29:27
will give you some suggestions to
29:29
recapitulate. Let me say that successful mental
29:31
telepathy depends upon the following. The
29:35
channel between the sender and receiver must be kept open.
29:38
Any criticism spoken or implied, any suspicion
29:40
or resentment of one for the other,
29:42
any impatience or irritation on
29:45
the part of either will break the contact.
29:48
The sender must concentrate on sending. There
29:51
will be many temptations to let his mind
29:53
wander even to think over much of the
29:55
receiver or the technique being employed. The
29:58
receiver should be designated in an early manner. early visualization,
30:01
then put out of the mind while the entire
30:03
effort is to visualize with clarity and then release
30:06
with love the message to be sent. For
30:09
his part, the receiver should think of the
30:11
sender for just a moment or two, and
30:13
then after sending him a wave of love
30:15
attraction, put the personality out of the mind.
30:18
From that point onward the receiver must be
30:20
truly detached if maximum success is
30:22
to be achieved. He must
30:24
maintain what can best be described as a
30:26
don't care attitude. Any anxiety
30:29
about failure or a strong desire for
30:31
success will be self-defeating. Or
30:34
possibly the greatest difficulty the
30:36
receiver will encounter is the quieting of his own
30:39
thoughts. As long as
30:41
they are active, the energy they will
30:43
generate will radiate and create a magnetic
30:45
wall which will block out any incoming
30:47
thought energy. The receiver must
30:49
learn how to relax his mind, must
30:51
indeed practice this beforehand and
30:53
become proficient in order to ensure success.
30:57
You are ready to learn telepathy. You
31:00
probably had many experiences with telepathic
31:02
contact, some of which you recognized,
31:04
some not. This is
31:06
a faculty inherent in all humans and
31:08
requires only attention and practice for its
31:10
development. The human race needs
31:12
to relearn telepathy and within 500 years
31:15
it will again become an accepted
31:17
mode of communication for a large,
31:19
a very large segment of humanity.
31:22
You are ready for it now
31:24
and can learn it through conscientious
31:27
effort and hard practice. If
31:29
you set yourself to do this and are
31:31
successful, you will benefit yourself in many ways.
31:34
What is even more important, you will be
31:36
contributing to the advancement of the entire human
31:38
race. I urge you to be
31:40
a pioneer. The rewards are very great.
31:44
This very enlightening discussion of
31:46
telepathy highlights something very
31:49
important for me. As I read this, I realized
31:51
that in our current situation,
31:55
most people are not going to be able to do this. Most
31:58
people are distracted. incapable
32:00
of quieting their minds,
32:03
overly emotional, and incapable of quieting
32:05
their emotions. It's
32:08
important from this material to
32:10
understand that there is a distinction in
32:12
telepathy and that you can feel
32:14
people's feelings and send them. That's
32:18
communicating at the solar plexus level.
32:20
If you want to send images and words,
32:23
it becomes much more complex. It's
32:26
important also to note that it's not
32:28
like a telephone call. You
32:30
can send a message to someone, they might
32:32
be working, they might be mowing the lawn,
32:34
and then when they're done with whatever task
32:36
they have, the message can be released. There
32:39
are different levels of telepathy here,
32:41
and it's emphasized that there's a telepathic
32:44
connection going on between the brain and
32:46
the soul, the soul and the higher
32:48
mind. When we communicate with
32:50
the higher self, there is a telepathic
32:52
connection that is involved in that. I
32:55
do believe that understanding and going
32:58
through this process of telepathy is
33:01
incredibly important, and
33:03
by training yourself and applying yourself
33:05
to basic techniques, for
33:07
instance, the exercise in sending the
33:10
triangle or the circle or anything like that,
33:13
you start to work your mind like a muscle and you
33:15
get better and better at it. We should
33:17
openly accept the idea that we can send messages,
33:20
and oftentimes I would say that if you have
33:22
certain emotions come up, it
33:24
may not be your own. You might walk
33:26
into a Walmart and just
33:29
get exposed to certain people's emotions.
33:31
Your solar plexus is sort
33:33
of active when you're in group settings, and
33:36
you must understand that there's a differentiation
33:38
that goes on. As you become more
33:40
alert and aware, you're able to quiet
33:42
your mind down and observe what's going
33:44
on in your mind and your emotions.
33:47
You may be able to get to a level
33:49
where you can interpret whether or not a message
33:51
has been sent and whether or
33:54
not it was just your
33:56
own thoughts that are happening. I
33:58
believe a lot of times we're thinking thoughts. that
34:01
are really telepathic messages. Get
34:03
some crazy thought in your mind and you're like, why
34:05
would I be thinking that? And you've
34:07
just gone into this sea
34:09
of thoughts that are all around you. Understand
34:12
we are essentially walking around in
34:15
an ocean of thoughts. They're
34:17
constantly bombarding us. If
34:19
you're depressed or having suicidal thoughts, that may
34:21
not be your own thoughts. You
34:23
may be exposed to thoughts that are not
34:25
originating in your own mind. It's
34:29
an ongoing process to understand the way the
34:32
mind works, but it's
34:34
important to understand that you're an
34:36
open receiver and transmitter. This
34:39
is an important observation to come to
34:41
grips with because a lot of times
34:44
people identify all their thoughts as
34:47
if it's a part of their own identity in
34:49
general, who they are. Really,
34:51
you're receiving station and sometimes those
34:53
thoughts that are flowing through you
34:56
are no different than just hearing the
34:58
echoes of a radio that's being played next
35:01
door to you, that has nothing to do with you.
35:03
You didn't even tune into it. As
35:06
you quiet your mind down and
35:08
become more observant and focused, then
35:11
you will become more aware of the thoughts that
35:13
enter play within your mind. It's
35:16
important here, remember the technique in
35:18
which they received thoughts involved
35:21
just saying the om three times. If
35:24
you want to receive or send thoughts, you
35:27
relax yourself, you send the om, clear
35:29
your mind and you connect
35:32
to love. Another thing that's emphasized
35:35
in this is that love is the key element in
35:38
transmitting a thought or idea. We
35:41
will come back to this a little bit more and I may
35:44
expand on the Rosicrucian teachings
35:46
for generating and applying psychic
35:48
energy. You
