In the same way, complicated thoughts have been
transmitted and received. But these are only exceptional cases. In many
cases this sense seems almost dead in the ordinary civilized individual,
except when aroused in exceptional cases.
But, nevertheless, the majority of persons have occasional flashes of
telepathy--just enough to make them realize that "there is something in
it." The renewed interest in the subject, of late years, has directed the
public mind to the phenomena of telepathy, and, consequently, more persons
are now taking note of the cases of thought-transference coming under
their personal notice. It must be remembered, of course, that all of us
are constantly receiving thought-waves, and feeling thought-influence,
unconsciously. I am speaking now only of the conscious perception of the
thought-waves.
Many investigators have so developed their telepathic sense that they are
able, at times, to obtain wonderful test results. But, it has been a
source of disappointment to many of them to discover that at other times,
under apparently similar conditions, their success was very slight. So
true is this that many authorities have accepted the theory that telepathy
is more or less spontaneous, and cannot be produced to order. This theory
is true as far as it goes, but there is a side of the case that these
investigators overlook, probably because of their lack of the occult
principles involved in the phenomena.
