For the past history of man, this theory depends not only upon the
concurrent testimony of the tradition of the earlier religions, but upon
the examination of a definite record—a record which can be seen
and consulted by anyone who possesses the degree of clairvoyance
requisite to appreciate the vibrations of the finely subdivided matter
upon which it is impressed. For its knowledge as to the future which
awaits humanity, it depends, first, upon logical deduction from the
character of the progress already made; secondly, on direct
information supplied by men who have already reached those
conditions which for most of us still constitute a more or less remote
future; and thirdly, on the comparison which anyone who has the
privilege of seeing them may make between highly evolved men at
various levels. We can imagine that a child who did not otherwise
know the course of nature might reason that he would presently
grow up and become a man, merely from the fact that he had
already grown to a certain extent and in a certain way, and that he
saw around him other children and young people at every stage of
growth between his own and the adult level.
