Excerpt from Arcana of Spiritualism: A Manual of Spiritual Science and Philosophy
IT has been suggested that this volume would be better understood if I gave my spiritual experience and method of writing. In complying, I exclude everything outside my psychic sensitiveness.
That I was born in what was then a wilderness on the southern shores of Lake Erie (ohio, and for the early years of my life to the time I began to write for the superior intelligences had exceedingly limited social and educational advantages, may be of interest to the reader as showing how the communications transcended my own capabilities.
No one can write of the vicissitudes, emotions, or thoughts of a medium as well as the medium himself. By the essential conditions of mediumship, he is sensitive and easily disturbed by antagonism. What to others would be a jest, to him becomes agonizing, and he is often disturbed by causes unknown by their subtlety. The voice of censure is unbearably harsh; a word of praise lifts his soul with unspeakable delight; he is a bundle of nerves, tense, sensitive to a breath, responding to a touch. These conditions are not of his seeking, but are thrust upon him, and he cannot cast them off. Like all human capabilities, sensitiveness is susceptible of culture, of intensification, and of being lost by neglect or abuse; of yielding unspeakable delight or pain.
