The Occult World by A. P. Sinnet

Published by the London Theosophy Society
1901
8th Edition

"Occult phenomena must not be confused with the phenomena of spiritualism.
The latter, whatever they may be, are manifestations which mediums can
neither control nor understand in a scientific sense. The former are
achievements of a conscious, living operator comprehending the laws with
which he works. If these achievements appear miraculous, that is the fault of
the observer's ignorance. The spiritualist knows perfectly well, in spite of
ignorant mockery on the part of outsiders content to laugh without knowing."
