To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To the question, is there anything outside of us which corresponds with our sensations ? that is to say, is the whole world simply " I," they reply that obviously there is a something else; and that this something else produces the brain-disturbance which is called sensation. Instinct orders us to do something; Reason (the balance of faculties) directs ; and the strongest motive controls. Modern Science, by the dis- covery of Radiant Matter, a fourth con- dition, seems to conciUate the two scho...ols. " La d6couverte d'un quatrifeme 6tat de la matiSre,'' says a Reviewer, " c'est la porte ouverte £l I'infini de ses transformations ; c'est I'homme invisible et impalpable de mSme possible sans cesser d'etre substan- tiel ; c'est le monde des esprits entrant sans absurdity dans la domaine des hypotheses scientifiques ; c'est la possibilit6 pour le mat6rialiste de croire k la vie d'outre tombe, sans renoncer au substratum mat6- riel qu'il croit n6cessaire au maintien de rindividualit6.'' With Hdji Abdu the soul is not material, for that would be a contradiction of terms.
