Excerpt from The Story of Atlantis: A Geographical, Historical, and Ethnological Sketch; Illustrated by Four Maps of the World's Configuration at Different Periods For readers unacquainted with the progress that has been made in recent years by earnest students of occultism attached to the Theosophical Society, the significance of the statement embodied in the following pages would be mis apprehended without some preliminary explanation. Historical research has depended for western civilisation hitherto, on written records of one kind or another. When literary memoranda have fallen short, stone monuments have sometimes been available, and fossil remains have given us a few unequi vocal, though inarticulate assurances concerning the antiquity of the human race; but modern culture has lost sight Of or has overlooked possibilities connected with the investigation of past events, which are independent of fallible evidence transmitted to us by ancient writers. The world at large is thus at present so imperfectly alive to the resources of human faculty, that by most people as yet, the very exist ence, even as a potentiality, of psychic powers, which some of us all the while are consciously exercising every day, is scornfully denied and derided. The situation is sadly ludicrous from the point Of view of those who appreciate the prospects of evolution, because mankind is thus wilfully holding at arm's.
