Book Description

Psychometry refers to the purported ability to learn about someone or something simply by touching inanimate objects related to them. This vintage book takes a detailed look at the subject of psychometry, exploring its various methods, notable historical cases, techniques for performing experiments, and much more with reference to contemporary science and psychology. Contents include: “Discovery of Psychometry”, “Its Fascination, Safety, and Ease of Pursuit”, “Compiler's Preface”, “History of Thought-Transference”, “What is Thought-Transference”, “Adaptability of the Universal Ether to the Transmission of Vibrations”, “Auras”, etc. “Psychometry and Thought” is highly recommended for those with an interest in telepathy and the supernatural, and it would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature.

Seeing the Invisible


Book Description

Excerpt from Seeing the Invisible: Practical Studies in Psychometry, Thought Transference, Telepathy, and Allied Phenomena Psychic Science has made great progress during the last fifty years, but the facts with which it has had to deal are as old as mankind; but that does not make the work the less valuable. Facts - albeit Psychological and Psychical - denied fifty years ago, or deemed only worthy the attention of the superstitious or the ignorant, have, after all, been found to be facts, and as the result of investigations of men and women who were equal, if not superior, to their contemporaries in the highest walks of Science, Philosophy, Theology, Literature and Art, not only at home, but abroad also. These investigations go to prove, not merely that man has a soul - using the term in the popular sense - and may live in some obscure way in after-death states, but that he is a Soul here and now.

Photographing the Invisible


Book Description

In this 100 year old book the mechanics of spirit photography are explained by apparent spirits communicating through mediums. It has to do with ether and semi-materialization apparently. However, the presence of a medium before the taking of the photograph is essential, reportedly. In addition, the medium should be morally and physically healthy and able to maintain a passive mental state. Anxiety is reportedly a great hindrance. That way, the subconscious thought forms are liberated. There's a photo of Alfred Russel Wallace and his deceased mother. Wallace states, "The facts were too many for me." Photos of people's doubles were apparently also possible, such as the photo taken of medium Stainton Moses and his double. Mr. Coates includes a photo of himself and his dead wife. Thought photography is discussed towards the end of the book, which apparently dates from 1876. Images of objects enter and fix themselves in our brains through the retina, and then they can leave our brains by the same route, reportedly. Coates includes a letter from a correspondent who reportedly received evidence that there is a large band of workers in the spirit world who are "helping to convince the Western World that there are things and beings which cannot be cognised by ordinary sense faculty." A good book to generate conversation about
