COMMUNICATING SPIRIT CANNOT
CONTROL THE NUMBER OF MOVEMENTS OR SOUNDS
Often at first while the table will
move or raps be heard, there is no certainty, and when questions are
asked, the
responses are unreliable or fail
altogether. It will be readily understood that it is far easier to produce
a sound, than to time that sound to a question. The controlling spirit may
not have acquired the knowledge and
skill of responding, and must be
allowed time to perfect by practice.
GOOD RESULT
A correspondent writes: "Over two years
ago we organized a home circle for investigating Spiritualism, and very
shortly received what is known as table rappings and by observing certain
established rules we received the names of many that we are thoroughly
familiar with, and a great many that we did not know. Among those that we
did not know was one that gave
the Dame of F. Osborn, and said he was the manager of the
circle. These raps continued two or
three months, and all at once vanished
as strangely as they came. But after
the rappings stopped the sitters saw a white cloud-like vapor that would
rise at different parts of the circle and float off, repeating itself
ofttimes over and over again, and at the same
time the sitters would feel something
like the touch of fingers on different
parts of the body. One of the members
discontinued sitting on account of an ill influence taken on at circle.
Can this be explained? and would it be advisable to continue circles?"
This statement shows what may be
accomplished by the home circle. Such a beginning prophesies wonderful
results if continued with
earnestness; conditions that have been found most advantageous should be
complied with, and the places of
members that cannot attend supplied, and
the circles held in one place at the
appointed times. Continue by all
means, with assurance that you have
surprising manifestations in store for
you.
