# Autobiography of a Yogi book Excerpts :

The Will, projected from the point between eyebrows is known as the "broadcasting apparatus" of thoughts. When the feeling is calmly concentrated on the Heart, it acts as a "mental radio" and can receive the messages of others from far or near. In Telepathy, the fine vibrations of thoughts in one person's mind are transmitted through subtle vibrations of Astral ether and then through grosser earthly Ether, creating electrical waves which in turn translate themselves into thought waves in mind of other person.

# In Tantric Buddhism, blue scorpion symbolizes the Ether element.
