Spiritual Telepathy

The purpose of this accessible book is to introduce ancient mind-training techniques that allow the reader to access the wisdom and guidance of the soul, connecting it with the lower mind in a form of vertical training. Enabling this to happen is an important evolutionary imperative if we are to move towards a more inclusive and compassionate way of life where we take a universal rather than a purely personal view. The metaphysical background is influenced by Alice Bailey, and includes seven planes of reality as well as the existence of the chakras. The author explains the three minds in terms of the lower or rational, the soul, and the higher or intuitive mind. These correspond broadly to the three types of telepathy – instinctual, gut or animal, mental and spiritual. In the last category, the author gives some very inspiring insights from 19th-century composers who refer to universal currents of divine thought vibrating everywhere (Wagner), tapping a source of infinite and internal energy (Strauss) and the superconscious mind from which inspiration comes (Brahms) - in this context, she could also have quoted very similar words from Walter Russell with respect to mysticism and science. In order to open oneself to these higher possibilities, one needs to refine one's physical, emotional and mental bodies and be able to build a bridge to the soul through meditation and contemplation of seed thoughts. She gives further examples of soul-aligned humans and a meditation with this in mind. Finally, she invites readers to become World Servers, joining up with others to create a New World based on goodwill. The book provides a good road map in this respect.
