There slumber in every human being faculties by means of which he
can acquire for himself a knowledge of higher worlds. Mystics,
Gnostics, Theosophists - all speak of a world of soul and spirit
which for them is just as real as the world we see with our
physical eyes and touch with our physical hands. At every moment
the listener may say to himself: that, of which they speak, I too
can learn, if I develop within myself certain powers which today
still slumber within me. -- Rudolf Steiner
First published in 1899, Clairvoyance is Leadbeater's short
handbook on the methods used in seeing and hearing beyond normal
perception. Humans can only see a certain range of light under
normal circumstances. If, however, eyes were sensitive to
additional wavelengths of light, this would constitution
clairvoyant vision. These new wavelengths become available when one
starts using astral senses. Leadbeater gives his readers a thorough
description of the kinds of clairvoyance that exist and how such
visions are achieved. In the final chapter he answers the question
that every reader wants to ask: How can I develop clairvoyance for
myself? Those interested in the occult and psychic ability will
find this book a must-read. English clergyman turned spiritualist
CHARLES WEBSTER LEADBEATER (1854-1934) was ordained as an Anglican
priest, but later joined the prominent Theosophical Society and
traveled to India to study alternative spiritual and occult
practices, eventually settling into his life as a clairvoyant and
author. His other works include Man Visible and Invisible and The
Science of the Sacrament.
The (dis)connection between psychological (or scientific) and
psychic mind is a subject that has baffled man for centuries. The
phenomenon captured in a very particular way the attention of Sir
Arthur Conan Doyle, a man in whom the analytic and artistic
struggled for dominance, and inspired The New Revelation,
originally published in 1918. The treatise deals not only with the
issue of physical versus metaphysical, but also considers the
problem of death (and afterlife) and the question of communication
with the spirit world. Conan Doyle's captivating prose and
pragmatic, yet human, voice makes for an enlightening exploration
of some eternally relevant questions-and possible answers. Scottish
surgeon and political activist SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE (1859-1930)
turned his passions into stories and novels, producing fiction and
nonfiction works sometimes controversial (The Great Boer War,
1900), sometimes fanciful (The Coming of the Fairies, 1922), and
sometimes legendary (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, 1892).

1918. The author describes how she suddenly developed the power of
automatic writing. She was not a Spiritualist at the time. Her hand
was controlled and she wrote a quantity of matter which was
entirely outside her own knowledge or character. The pages in this
book contain a partial history of her discovery. While much of the
more intimate personal matter has been omitted, most of those to
whom these messages were given have felt impelled to share, in this
tragic time, the comfort and assurance of their conviction, and
have voluntarily yielded their privacy, hoping thereby to bring to
those in sorrow an added faith in the continuance of personality,
with all that this implies.

In the Law of Psychic Phenomena by author Thomas Jay Hudson, Hudson
has attempted to create a classification of verified psychic
phenomena, accounts of which is found in the literature current on
the subject; and has tentatively formulated a working hypothesis
for the systematic study of all classes of psychic phenomena.
Hudson has collected a vast array of facts, thus accumulated and
verified, and awaiting scientific classification and analysis,
which would seem to justify at least a tentative effort to apply to
them the processes of induction, to the end that the fundamental
law of psychic phenomena may be discovered. This is an important
work for those who are interested in the writings of Thomas Jay
Hudson and also those with an interest in understanding psychic
phenomena.

This book chronicles the life of Barbarosa (Kheir-ed-din), a 16th
Century Corsair who rose from an obscure birth to supreme Admiral
of the Ottoman Navy. He was also a great linguist, a marine
architecht of note, the supreme master of Galley warfare and a
warrior of exceptional courage who survived 40 years of sea battles
to die in bed with a beautiful, young wife at his side. His story
also serves as a canvas on which to paint one of history's great,
but too little known empires in its heyday, and to bring alive an
exciting chapter of the age-old war between Islam and Christianity.
By the end of the 15th century Islamic Turkey's fierce horsemen and
terrible cannons had conquered the Middle East, Greece, the Balkans
and much of the Black Sea littoral. Early in the 16th, a young and
brilliant Sultan, promising to say his five daily prayers in France
and stable his horse in Rome, thundered hundreds of miles up the
Danube to digest Hungary and much of the old Roman Empire. Stymied
by weather and distance, he turned to the sea, called on Barbarosa,
and in one generation, built a navy which conquered the
Mediterranean.
In minor instances the chronology is manipulated or characters are
expanded in order to give coherence or fill gaps in the historical
record. These are minor and are clearly identified. Otherwise, the
people in this book all lived and the adventures all happened.
The accuracy of this book is the accuracy of most history.
Excerpts
In the Law of Psychic Phenomena by author Thomas Jay Hudson, Hudson
has attempted to create a classification of verified psychic
phenomena, accounts of which is found in the literature current on
the subject; and has tentatively formulated a working hypothesis
for the systematic study of all classes of psychic phenomena.
Hudson has collected a vast array of facts, thus accumulated and
verified, and awaiting scientific classification and analysis,
which would seem to justify at least a tentative effort to apply to
them the processes of induction, to the end that the fundamental
law of psychic phenomena may be discovered. This is an important
work for those who are interested in the writings of Thomas Jay
Hudson and also those with an interest in understanding psychic
phenomena.
Presently there are many more questions about remote viewing than
answers. Nevertheless, it is the aim of author Marilyn Isabelle
Schmidt to present reliable information of value and interest to
the remote viewing community and general public alike. "Remote
Viewing" is a coherent review of the state of the art derived from
archival research and a survey of the peer-reviewed literature on
remote viewing. In addition, it is anticipated that this book will
provide useful information upon which future experiments can be
based, for the purpose of expanding knowledge of human science and
development of applications beneficial to the quality of life.
The book offers variety as it "lifts the lid" on mediumship - a
peek behind the scenes. Have you ever wondered how mediums "know
what they know"?
Some of the answers are here.
Have you ever thought about your own death, what it will feel like?
Is there an afterlife or is death the end?
The read is compelling, chapter after chapter of people's
experiences such as astral journeys to other parts of the country
and even to the Spirit world itself. Mediumship in children, and
accounts of visual phenomena are fascinating, whilst the chapters
describing poltergeist activity, premonitions about disasters and
amorous spirits may leave you with a tingle down your spine!
Ann discusses the emotive, often taboo, subject of suicide. People
who have "lost" someone this way know how they feel about it,
through her spiritual encounters during the course of her work, she
is able to put across the feelings of the Spirits who committed
suicide and find out what they have to say.
Some chapters such as "Humour from the Spirit World" will make you
laugh, whilst many others, such as "Murder in a Phone Box" and
"Lisa," may bring forth tears of emotion.
Ann pays tribute, throughout her book, to her friend Jenny who
passed to Spirit in 1995. Herself a psychic, she "endured"
premonitions of tragic incidents such as Lockerbie in 1988.
This book is for anyone with an open mind who wishes to know more
about spiritual and psychic matters, I must warn you to be prepared
for an emotional roller-coaster ride!
Everyone is Psychic is an introduction to Spritualism. It is based
upon the author's very real experiences to become a medium and
spiritual healer. It is for those in this existence who are open
minded enough or have the need to understand the help that is
available through Spiritualism. It is a startling fact that there
is a great deal that we can do for ourselves and others in a
positive way, using our Spiritual capabilities alone.
The Prime Object Of This Little Volume Is To Set Forth Clearly And
Concisely The Value Of Psychology, Hypnotism And Clairvoyance As
Practically Applied To Education, Morality, Spirituality, Medicine,
Surgery, Business, And To The Development And Exercise Of Personal
Magnetism.
