Paul Brunton Philosophic Foundation homepage > Notebooks of Paul Brunton
The practices of psychism and occultism, with their pursuit of psychical and occult powers, have this peril: that unless the seeker is quite well informed he may be led astray from the correct path if he is at a lower stage, or be kept too preoccupied with his own ego (or extensions of it) if at a higher one. What might be useful adjuncts to a sage could become snares to a seeker.
