THE SIXTH SENSE   253
219 Lest I be misunderstood, I wish here to state most emphatically, that I still regard
220 my Cabinet meetings as being purely imaginary, but I feel entitled to suggest that,
221 while the members of my Cabinet maybe purely fictional, and the meetings
222 existent only in my own imagination, they have led me into glorious paths of
223 adventure, rekindled an appreciation of true greatness, encouraged creative
224 endeavor, and emboldened the expression of honest thought.
225 Somewhere in the cell-structure of the brain, is located an organ which receives
226 vibrations of thought ordinarily called "hunches." So far, science has not
227 discovered where this organ of the sixth sense is located, but this is not
228 important. The fact remains that human beings do receive accurate knowledge,
229 through sources other than the physical senses. Such knowledge, generally, is
230 received when the mind is under the influence of extraordinary stimulation. Any
231 emergency which arouses the emotions, and causes the heart to beat more
232 rapidly than normal may, and generally does, bring the sixth sense into action.
233 Anyone who has experienced a near accident while driving, knows that on such
234 occasions, the sixth sense often comes to one's rescue, and aids, by split seconds,
235 in avoiding the accident.
236 These facts are mentioned preliminary to a statement of fact which I shall now
237 make, namely, that during my meetings with the "Invisible Counselors" I find my
238 mind most receptive to ideas, thoughts, and knowledge which reach me through
239 the sixth sense. I can truthfully say that I owe entirely to my "Invisible
240 Counselors" full credit for such ideas, facts, or knowledge as I received through
241 "inspiration."
242 On scores of occasions, when I have faced emergencies, some of them so grave
243 that my life was in jeopardy, I have been miraculously guided past these
244 difficulties through the influence of my "Invisible Counselors."
245 My original purpose in conducting Council meetings with imaginary beings, was
246 solely that of impressing my own subconscious mind, through the principle of
247 auto-suggestion, with certain characteristics which I desired to acquire. In more
248 recent years, my experimentation has taken on an entirely different trend.
