I got letters from people that have had peculiar psychic experiences, experiences with the dead - sometimes fairly tranquil experiences and sometimes very terrifying experiences. i do believe that a lot of them are sincere. i do believe, also, that some of them may be misguided. but, i think the majority of them have experienced something.

The critic is a prisoner to his own experiences and perspectives, erroneously believing his limited experiences are the sum of all truth
Believe Perspective Critics
All our thoughts and concepts are called up by sense-experiences and have a meaning only in reference to these sense-experiences. on the other hand, however, they are products of the spontaneous activity of our minds; they are thus in no wise logical consequences of the contents of these sense-experiences. if, therefore, we wish to grasp the essence of a complex of abstract notions we must for the one part investigate the mutual relationships between the concepts and the assertions made about them; for the other, we must investigate how they are related to the experiences.
Wise Hope Wisdom
