Synopsis

Telepathy And The Subliminal Self: An Account Of Recent Investigations Regarding Hypnotism, Automatism, Dreams, Phantasms, And Related Phenomena by Rufus Osgood Mason. This volume, originally published in 1899, surveys the growing field of psychical research and gathers Mason’s reviews of experiments and observations in telepathy, hypnotism, clairvoyance, automatism, dreams, and phantasms. Through historical sketches of mesmerism and the rise of the Society for Psychical Research, the book presents detailed cases and tests—such as the “willing game,” diagrams, post-hypnotic suggestions, and automatic writing and drawing (Planchette). It also covers lucidity or clairvoyance, double or multiplex personalities, natural and hypnotic somnambulism, and the phenomena of crystal-gazing and phantasms. Mason argues for a naturalistic interpretation of these experiences via the subliminal self, capable of receiving or transmitting impressions beyond ordinary senses, and urges careful scientific examination rather than skepticism or credulity. The work remains a foundational text in early psychical research.”,
