T C Lethbridge – A Step in the Dark
I began by tabulating such rates as had been discovered. But a table as such is not particularly helpful. As I studied the table, a rather remarkable feature caught my eye. Certain basic concepts were found together at 10, 20, 30 or 40 inches:
10 inch |
20 inch |
30 inch |
40 inch |
Light |
Life |
Sound |
Death |
Sun |
Heat |
Moon |
Cold |
Fire |
Earth |
Water |
Air |
Red |
White |
Green |
Black |
East |
South |
West |
North |
Graphite |
Electricity |
Hydrogen |
Sleep |
Truth |
- |

Falsehood |
All these were of such importance that it seemed obvious to me that I was dealing with some completely fundamental plan.
It could be no accident that, with a table beginning at 0 and ending at 40, each 10-inch rate should carry with it so many matters of vital consequence. Some intelligence must have constructed the scale and fitted everything into it. I looked at what I had found in astonishment. It seemed quite impossible to believe that so simple a thing as a pendulum could tell such a remarkable story. The rejected study was giving the evidence, which all other studies had failed to produce. Materialists were materialists simply because they could not observe a basic plan behind the other studies.
