The mystic, sitting in the silence of his meditation room, may receive great wisdom and feel a beneficent presence or, astray and imprudent, may fall into psychical deception and be possessed by evil presences. If he is to avoid these dangers, he must adopt certain safeguards and find competent guidance. Without them, he had better be content with reading and study and belief.
