This release is facilitated by magnetic action. The more profound the hypnotic state, the more fully can
the soul detach itself and recover full powers of vibration. The active life of the spirit is resumed, while the
physical life is suspended. To lead the hypnotic subject to a determined epoch in his past, longitudinal passes,
practiced downward, should be made until profound sleep results. One can obtain facsimile penmanship from
such subjects, varying with the different epochs of their lives.
We have ourselves assigned to a subject one precise date in his far past, and caused him to recall it,
with details afterwards verified. Such experiences cast a bright light on the mystery of life. All the varied
aspects of memory, the existence of souvenirs of normal life, and their revival in trance condition, are
explained by the different vibratory movements which unite the soul and its psychic body to the material brain.
With every change of state the vibrations, varying in intensity, become more rapid in the measure that
the soul is released from the body. Sensations felt in a normal state register with a minimum of force and
durability, but memory conscious, memory implacable, conserves the imprint of all its faults, and becomes its
own judge, and sometimes its own executioner. But at the same time, the ME, broken into fragments and
distinct layers during the earth life, reconstructs itself into a magnificent unity. All the experience acquired in
the course of centuries, all the spiritual riches and fruits of evolution, often hidden or buried and lessened by
this experience, reappear in their brilliancy and freshness to serve as a foundation of new acquisition. Nothing
is lost! The deep layers of being, if they recount the faults and falls, proclaim also the slow, difficult efforts
made in the course of the ages to beauty the personality, in the unfolding of the acquired faculties, qualities,
and virtues.
