Mr. Wood presents a restorative system for home and private use, preceded by a study of the laws of mental healing. Suggestion of some kind is the great mental motor. It may enter the human mind either in thought waves projected by another mind, or through the avenue of an outer sense. Hypnotic suggestion stirs the mind on the sensuous plane by the dominant imposition of the force of another personality. Ideal suggestion is the photographing of pure and perfect ideals directly upon the mind through the medium of the sense of sight. Contents: laws of mental healing; ideal suggestion; meditations and suggestions.

A uniquely serious and accessible introduction to the life and work of the mysterious sixteenth-century seer Michel de Nostradamus.
From his predictions about life and death in the Middle French court of Catherine de' Medici to his uncannily suggestive preconceptions of World War II, Michel de Nostradamus has aroused continual fascination-and commercialization-in the West. Today, many search his elliptical "centuries"-or collected verses-for new truths about 9/11 and End Times, while supermarket tabloids routinely falsify and exploit his pronouncements.
What is the difference between prophecy and prediction, and how has it led to a misuse of the ideas of Nostradamus, as well as those of other post-biblical prognosticators? What is the nature of the oracular tradition in the West-stretching back to the oracle at Delphi-and how can Nostradamus be understood from this perspective? In The Essential Nostradamus, the highly regarded spiritual thinker and writer Richard Smoley provides a true sourcebook in the life and messages of one of history's most peculiar figures.
This volume offers a host of advantages beyond other collections of Nostradamus's work. Many commentators on Nostradamus take liberties in their translations, further confusing the matter of what the prophetic quatrains actually said. In "The Essential Nostradamus," Smoley presents a fresh, scholarly, and literal translation of Nostradamus's Middle French, allowing readers to make their own determination as to the passages' historical references and accuracy.
Smoley also supplies detailed commentary on Nostradamus's key quatrains, with a sharp eye toward the political and social events of the writer'sera-elements that many commentators overlook or fail to grasp. An authoritative biographical essay-highlighting Nostradamus's separate roles as physician, astrologer, and prognosticator-rounds out the volume to create a truly essential exposition of the work of one of Western culture's most mysterious men.

It is a strange and almost amusing fact that there should be at the same time, on the part of the general public, such a general acceptance of the existence of personal magnetism, on the one hand, and such an ignorance of the nature of this wonderful force, on the other hand.-from Chapter 1, "Personal Magnetism"The New Thought movement of the turn of the twentieth century combined Christian spirituality with paranormal power in an effort to give practical expression to the forces of the universe. Or so its proponents believed. One of the most influential thinkers of this early "New Age" philosophy promises here, in this 1913 book, to show the reader "how to develop your personality" and "how to develop a dominating influence" through such exercises as: . Projecting Nerve Force. Mental Radiation. The Positive Aura. The Magnetic Duel. Magnetic Self-Defence. The Power of Controlling OthersThe roots of today's groundswell for self-help, personal empowerment, and pop spirituality can be explored in this one small, highly entertaining book.Also available from Cosimo Classics: The Advanced Course in Personal Magnetism, by Theron Q. Dumont.American writer WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON (1862-1932)-aka Theron Q. Dumont-was born in Baltimore and had built up a successful law practice in Pennsylvania before professional burnout led him to the religious New Thought movement. He served as editor of the popular magazine New Thought from 1901 to 1905, and as editor of the journal Advanced Thought from 1916 to 1919. He authored dozens of New Thought books-including Arcane Formula or Mental Alchemy and Vril, or Vital Magnetism-under numerous pseudonyms, some of which are likely still unknown today.

Man is forever searching for a solution of life's mysteries. Psychic phenomena is the pivot around which great controversies are raging. It has always been interwoven with religion and theologians have for ages exercised a monopoly on things called mysterious and supernatural. This book contains specific instructions for developing thought-transference, psychometry, mind-reading, automatic writing, mental broadcasting and other psychic phenomena.

This book embodies the first attempt to appraise on a large scale writings hostile to psychic research. It seeks to deal fairly with persons who, through the course of more than a century, have expressed their disbelief in any facts "psychic" or "supernormal," according to the understood meaning of these terms. It proposes to ascertain with what degree of knowledge these persons are equipped to deal with the subject, to see whether the logic they employ is such as is employed in other types of investigation or is of a sort deemed good enough only for this, and generally to analyze and set forth their polemical methodology. All of these persons are respectable, and some of them illustrious, representatives of the classes to which they belong, physical scientists, psychologists, university and college instructors, physicians, clergymen, magicians and what-not. There are more than one hundred of these to be heard in this book.

Parapsychologists have uncovered irrefutable evidence that psychic abilities - including telepathy, precognition, and psychokinesis - exist. But they are not "gifts" in any sense of the word. They are potentials. And as potentials, they are something we all inherently possess and can develop. The only problem is: how can we tap and use these abilities reliably? In Our Psychic Potentials, D. Scott Rogo presents some very specific strategies - some known about for hundreds of years, others recently discovered - for accessing our psychic potentials. These psychic development techniques involve dreaming, mental imagery, relaxation, suggestion, and feedback. Called "open minded," "frank," and "refreshing" by readers, this step-by-step guide to self-testing and psychic training also examines the scientific evidence that our psychic abilities can indeed be developed and used on demand. D. Scott Rogo (1950-1990) was one of the most widely respected writer-journalists covering the field of parapsychology, as well as an active scientific investigator. Educated at the University of Cincinnati and San Fernando Valley State College, Rogo held a unique position in parapsychology and made many contributions to the field that deserve recognition. He served as a visiting researcher at the Psychical Research Foundation, then in Durham, North Carolina, and at the Division of Parapsychology and Psychophysics of the Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn, New York. He published papers on ESP in referred parapsychological journals and was active in field investigations of hauntings and poltergeists. Rogo was also a leading authority on the history of psychical research; the breadth of his historical knowledge of the field was unsurpassed. Over the course of more than two-dozen published books, Rogo sought to broaden the range of topics worthy of paranormal research.

The Author's purpose of this book is to tell what he and others, under careful test conditions, have seen and heard in regard to psychic phenomena; many of the others are well equipped, trained observers. Funk is not attempting to discover anything; but is attempting to state clearly a problem and to urge others, better qualified, to the discovery of its solution. He did not pass upon the facts presented in this volume or attempt an explanation, but he wishes to urge as forcefully upon the scientific mind of the world what to him is a profound riddle.

A practical guide to those who aspire to claivoyance-absolute. Original, and selected from various European and Asiatic adepts. Clairvoyance is the art and power of knowing or cognizing facts, things and principles, by methods totally distinct from those usually pursued in their attainment. The author claims to have reduced it to a system and to have evolved science from heterogeneity; to have added new thought, new conception and to have discovered the central magnetic law, underlying the evolutions of somnambulic phenomena.
