finished reading chapter two of irreducible mind .. it's a looong chapter
in sum, instead of studying limited "normal" consciousness, myers was all for investigating the juicy stuff .. saying that's what holds the key to greater understanding of the mind
like hysteria, genius, insanity, lucid dreaming, hypnotism, hyperesthesia, hallucination, near death esperience, deathbed visions
scrying, crystal-gazing, shell-hearing (hmmm holosync perhaps??), dynamogeny, automatic writing drawing painting, telekineses, full-blown ecstacy, mystical experience
what he called excursions beyond the normal bounds
