(After a sentence had been half written, the writing suddenly stopped,
and was continued later.)
W
HEN you respond to my call, wipe clean your mind as a child wipes its slate when
ready for a new maxim or example by its teacher. Your lightest personal thought
or fancy may be as a cloud upon a mirror, blurring the reflection.
You can receive letters by this means, provided your mind does not begin
to work independently, to question in the midst of the writing.
I was not stopped this time, as before, by beings gathering round; but by
your own curiosity as to the end of an unusual sentence. You suddenly became
positive instead of negative, as if the receiving instrument in a telegraph
office should begin to send a message of its own.
I have learned here the reason for many psychic things which formerly
puzzled me, and I am determined if possible to protect you from the danger of
cross-currents in this work.
There was one night when I called and you would not let me in. Was that
kind?
But I am not reproaching you. I shall come again and again, until my work
is done.
I will come to you in a dream before long, and will show you many things.
