ABSTRACT

Telepathy is a word adopted by the leaders of the Society for Psychical Research as one which expresses the view they take of almost all spiritualistic phenomena so-called, so far as the experiments and observations of the Society have been recorded. Most Spiritualists will admit that a large proportion of automatic writing may arise out of unconscious brain cerebration, and they will also admit that as man is a spiritual being while in the flesh, a considerable proportion of automatic writings may be dictated by his own spiritual nature, unknown to his earthly reason; but all Spiritualists believe in inspiration by spiritual beings outside themselves, and that, therefore, automatic writing must sometimes proceed from this source.
