17. How can Leadbeater’s approach to his clairvoyant perceptions best be described?
- As carefully verified observations, refined through comparisons and repeated investigations
- Purely personal impressions without any further comparison
- Symbolic descriptions without any claim to accuracy
- Spontaneous insights that were recorded unchanged
✔ Correct answer: As carefully verified observations, refined through comparisons and repeated investigations
Leadbeater was always concerned not only with describing his perceptions, but also with verifying and refining them. He consistently compared his observations with those of other perceivers and repeated investigations very often in order to arrive at the most consistent results possible. In his studies of subtle structures in the subatomic field, for example, he counted thousands of individual elements with remarkable patience and perseverance in order to be able to state absolutely precise numbers in his writings.
