'PSYCHISM AND THE FOURTH DIMENSION
Now Zollner actually records such an experiment, and demonstrates, as we have done, its connexion with four dimensional space,
For in a seance with Slade, Zollner observed a jet of water issuing, apparently from a point near the ceiling which spouted against the walls and the ceiling at the same time; this took place in a sitting room where no water was kept.

We have hitherto taken the genuineness of Zollner's phenomena for granted, and, as far as our theories of the fourth-dimension are concerned, it matters little whether they actually occurred or not since they evidently all might have done so on our hypothesis of four-dimensional agencies.
These phenomena closely resemble those produced by the conscious intention of advanced occultists, so that we may reasonably connect these latter also with the hypothesis of a fourth-dimension, in which there would be reason for believing that the consciousness of an occultist who produces phenomena is fourdimensional.
Further, it has been stated that space has really seven dimensions, that the evolution of each round and principle in man co-ordinates with the evolution of the perception of a new dimension.
