We are conscious of vibrations within a fixed range of frequencies. . The human ear, for example, is able to hear sound frequencies which vibrate only from twenty to twenty thousand cycles per second. It is deaf to all sound vibrations oscillating beyond the extremes of this range. . Bats emit a shrill ultra squeak which we cannot hear. These squeaks serve as a kind of radar whereby the bat listens for echoes bouncing back from any object in its path thereby enabling it to avoid collision. . There is the silent dog whistle. The owner who blows it hears nothing; but its ultra high notes are heard by the dog which will respond to the call. . All kinds of activity is going on around us in the silent and invisible unknown. Our physical senses are deaf and blind to them. . Sometimes, however, through the latent power of extra-sensory perception we are able to perceive and learn some of these veiled mysteries. . Light is a wave motion. Every colour is a series of vibrations. The vibrations are conveyed through the eye to the brain where they are converted into the respective colours they represent. A prism will break up a ray of white light into the seven colours of the rainbowred, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. These seven colours are called the spectrum. All other visible colours can be made through the mixing of various colours in the spectrum. . However, there are some colours which the eye cannot see because their rates of vibration are beyond the power of the eye to absorb. . These known invisible light rays are ultra violet and infra red. They have been discovered by the spectroscope which is an instrument for studying the spectrum. It has been claimed that the seven perceived colours within the spectrum are infinitesimal compared to the unperceived ones. . All around us vibrates the great unknown and different kinds of creation to which our normal senses are insensible.
