Supernormal faculties in Man- Dr Eugene Osty
M. de Fleuriere tells me as follows:
"In my second state my vision takes most diverse forms. Sometimes it seems to develop in a kind of cerebral vapour, sometimes under the top of the head, or behind the forehead, or behind the eyes. At other times it seems exteriorized and presents itself before me a yard or a yard and a half distant. Then I often have the strange sensation as if my cerebro-psychic interior were divided like the cranial cavity into two hemispheres with a narrow median line touching each but quite different from either. Things pertaining to the past, present, or seem to present, themselves in the left hemisphere, those that occur in the present on the median line, and in the right hemisphere those that relate to the future. When I describe metapsychic visions, internal or external, and make a gesture accompanying my words, this gesture instinctively is to the left when dealing with events which are, or seem to be, past; it is straight before me if in the present, and to the right if in the future." (Extract from a MS. note, M. de Fleuriere to Dr. Osty. May 20th, 1922.)
