The Law of Psychic Phenomena is a classic work in the field of psychic manifestations of the human intellect. The author, Dr. Thomson Jay Hudson, Ph.D., LL.D., was the acknowledged authority in the field of metaphysics when he wrote this book in the late years of the 19th century. This book explores all areas of the metaphysical world from early philosophies to hypnotism and mesmerism, clairvoyance, visions, right through an overview of the psycho-therapeutic practices of that time. The Law of Psychic Phenomena remains as fascinating and informative today as it was when it was first published.

Excerpt: In point of fact, that which, for convenience, I have chosen to designate as the subjective mind, appears to be a separate and distinct entity; and the real distinctive difference between the two minds seems to consist in the fact that the “objective mind” is merely the function of the physical brain, while the “subjective mind” is a distinct entity, possessing independent powers and functions, having a mental organization of its own, and being capable of sustaining an existence independently of the body. In other words, it is the soul. The reader would do well to bear this distinction clearly in mind as we proceed.One of the most important, as well as one of the most striking, points of difference between the two minds, relates to the subject of suggestion. It is in this that the researches of the modern hypnotists give us the most important aid. Whether we agree with the Paris school in giving to suggestion a secondary place among the causes of hypnotic phenomena, or with the Nancy school in ascribing all the phenomena to the potentiality of suggestion, there can be no doubt of the fact that when suggestion is actively and intelligently employed, it is always effective. The following propositions, therefore, will not be disputed by any intelligent student of hypnotism:1. That the objective mind, or, let us say, man in his normal condition, is not controllable, against reason, positive knowledge, or the evidence of his senses, by the suggestions of another.2. That the subjective mind, or man in the hypnotic state, is unqualifiedly and constantly amenable to the power of suggestion.That is to say, the subjective mind accepts, without hesitation or doubt, every statement that is made to it, no matter how absurd or incongruous or contrary to the objective experience of the individual. If a subject is told that he is a dog, he will instantly accept the suggestion, and, to the limit of physical possibility, act the part suggested. If he is told that he is the President of the United States, he will act the part with wonderful fidelity to life. If he is told that he is in the presence of angels, he will be profoundly moved to acts of devotion. If the presence of devils is suggested, his terror will be instant, and painful to behold. He may be thrown into a state of intoxication by being caused to drink a glass of water under the impression that it is brandy; or he may be restored to sobriety by the administration of brandy, under the guise of an antidote to drunkenness.If told that he is in a high fever, his pulse will become rapid, his face flushed, and his temperature increased. In short, he may be made to see, hear, feel, smell, or taste anything, in obedience to suggestion. He may be raised to the highest degree of mental or physical exaltation by the same power, or be plunged by it into the lethargic or cataleptic condition, simulating death.These are fundamental facts, known and acknowledged by every student of the science of hypnotism. There is another principle, however, which must be mentioned in this connection, which is apparently not so well understood by hypnotists generally. I refer to the phenomenon of auto-suggestion. Professor Bernheim and others have recognized its existence, and its power to modify the results of experiments in one class of hypnotic phenomena, but apparently have failed to appreciate its full significance. It is, in fact, of coextensive importance with the general principle, or law, of suggestion, and is an essential part of it. It modifies every phenomenon, and sometimes seems to form an exception to the general law. Properly understood, however, it will be seen, not only to emphasize that law, but to harmonize all the facts which form apparent exceptions to it.

Thomson Hudson describes in this book various aspects of hypnosis. His idea was that any contact with "spirits" was contact with the medium's or the subject's own subconscious. Anything else could be explained by telepathy, which he defined as contact between two or more subconsciouses.

Originally published in 1901 and republished here by Forgotten Books, The Law of Psychic Phenomena: A Working Hypothesis is author Thomas Jay Hudson's examination of what is here referred to as psychic phenomena, namely hypnotism, mental therapeutics, clairvoyance, ghosts, and many other topics that some may consider fantastical. The purpose of the book, as stated by Hudson, is to "assist in bringing Psychology within the domain of the exact sciences." While there is no disputing that psychology today enjoys the same level of academic and scientific rigour as other fields, skeptics may take issue with the phenomena that the author lumps into the field of psychology. Hudson begins the book with a discussion on the importance of formulating a working hypothesis before laying out his own. The author argues that man has two minds, an objective and subjective, with the subjective mind amendable to control by suggestion and incapable of inductive reasoning. It is with this hypothesis that Hudson carries out an examination of various forms of psychic phenomena. This is not a book for the reason-minded skeptic to enjoy. Much of the text is devoted to what many would classify as the supernatural. Nor does the author offer logic based arguments for skeptics, rather, he dismisses them outright, stating, "I will not waste time, however, by attempting to prove by experiments of my own, or of others, that such phenomena do occur. It is too late for that. The facts are too well known to the civilized world to require proofs at this time. The man who denies the phenomena of spiritism to-day is not entitled to be called a sceptic, he is simply ignorant." If you are not willing to go into this book with a blanket acceptance of the supernatural you will likely take issue with many of the passages. If nothing else, Hudson displays a daring sense of boldness by concluding the book by tackling the subject of Christ and applying his working hypothesis for psychic phenomena to the story of the Bible. While an interesting read, The Law of Psychic Phenomena is simply too short on legitimate proof to recommend as a worthwhile exploration into the topic.

Thomson Jay Hudson attempts to explain mental phenomena in a way which reconciles with the physical sciences; phenomena such as hypnotics, spiritual visions, subjective memories, and the subconscious mind. Hudson was fascinated in how the trances of those under hypnosis resembled the spiritual mediums that purportedly could communicate with ghosts and spirits from the beyond. Based on these and other observations, a theory that humans have at their disposal two minds, each capable of different capacities and powers of mental utility. Over time, Hudson thought argument about the nature of mind to be irrelevant - he considered the two minds hypothesis to be irrefutable in the face of psychic phenomena; all men have an objective conscious mind, and a subjective unconscious mind. The spiritism movement, and general interest in psychics, reached ever-greater heights towards the end of the 1800s. The Law of Psychic Phenomena, published in 1893, summarizes the popular phenomena and strange mental occurrences that had captured popular interest in the foregoing years. Though much of Hudson's work on spiritualism and communication with ghosts is disregarded by modern science, his notions of human consciousness - the two minds theory - was influential, and would inspire further researches by psychologists and mental researchers.

In the Law of Psychic Phenomena by author Thomas Jay Hudson, Hudson has attempted to create a classification of verified psychic phenomena, accounts of which is found in the literature current on the subject; and has tentatively formulated a working hypothesis for the systematic study of all classes of psychic phenomena. Hudson has collected a vast array of facts, thus accumulated and verified, and awaiting scientific classification and analysis, which would seem to justify at least a tentative effort to apply to them the processes of induction, to the end that the fundamental law of psychic phenomena may be discovered. This is an important work for those who are interested in the writings of Thomas Jay Hudson and also those with an interest in understanding psychic phenomena.
