INTRODUCTION
The word "psycho phone" was first suggested and used by Mr. Francis
Grierson in a lecture I heard him deliver before the Toronto Theosophical
Society, August 31st, 1919, a year before Thomas Edison announced his
intention of devising an instrument which he hopes will serve to establish
intercourse between our world and the world of spirit. My own experiences as a student in this sphere of psychic research in
Europe and America, covering a period of thirty years, convince me that we
have here a revelation of a new mode of spiritual communication unlike
anything heretofore given to the world, not only different in quality but
different in purpose. From personal knowledge I can state that the recorder of these messages
has not acted on ideas advanced by anyone living on our plane. Looking back over the past two decades, I am led to believe that Mr.
Grierson's predictions in "The Invincible Alliance," and in that startling
poem, "The Awakening in Westminster Abbey," forecasting the war and the
tragic events in Ireland, were spiritual and psycho phonic in character. From 1909 to 1911 Francis Grierson was the acknowledged leading writer on
"The New Age," of London, which at that time had as contributors, H. G.
Wells, Bernard Shaw, Arnold Bennett, the two Chestertons, Hillaire
Belloc in one word, all the most prominent writers and advanced thinkers
in Britain, yet not one of them except Mr. Grierson could see the
approaching world upheaval. Early in 1909 he published a series of articles in that weekly depicting
the coming war, and nothing of so drastic a nature had ever appeared in an
English publication. In the spring of 1913 these articles were published
in book form in London and New York under the title of "The Invincible
Alliance." In the Westminster Abbey composition, published in "The New Age" in 1910,
the characteristics of four personalities are plainly manifest Coleridge,
Milton, Shelley and Shakespeare and I have not forgotten the sensation
caused by this great work in London at the time of its appearance. Having had occasion to study the social and psychic conditions in France,
Germany, Italy, Austria and England before the great war, and after having
been an eye witness of scenes unique in the annals of musical inspiration
in the artistic and literary circles of Europe as well as the most
intellectual of the royal courts, in which Mr. Grierson was the central
figure, I now have a better understanding of the work he accomplished and
its far reaching import. The more complex the work the longer must be the
preparation, and we are now confronted with what will appear to many as
the most interesting phase of Mr. Grierson's psychic gifts, for the seer
who ushered in the new mystical movement by the publication of "Modern
Mysticism" in 1899 is now the recorder of messages which must induce
thinking and unprejudiced minds to pause and consider such matters in a
new light, and it is to be hoped that many more messages like these may
be recorded by the same hand. As I write, I have before me a unique collection of letters written to Mr.
Grierson by men and women eminent in philosophy, art, music, literature
and journalism, in Europe and America... Continue reading book >>
