Evaluations of 1934 – 1937 [6]

It was extremely kind of you to analyse, as you did, a few weeks back, the influences of different planes in my poetry. I seem to have some feeling now for the qualities in them. I should like to know whether you intend any distinction when you speak of “Overmind touch” and “mental Overmind touch.”

Yes – the overmind proper has some gnostic light in it which is absent in the mental overmind.
