Chapter 4 is here: https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/thoughtpoweritscontrolandculture_06_besant_128kb.mp3

I believe the text should match the reading, although using the word "corrrespondentially" instead of "correspondingly" which is in the updated Theosophical society version, isn't preferred. Plus all the instances of singular verbs like he listen vs he listens - but oh well - better to use the one text consistently I guess.

One thing - there was one footnote but I didn't cite it - the formats of the two text versions was so different that I didn't know how to cite either one, although the theosophical society one would probably be better at
"The Secret Doctrine vol. I, 2, note" rather than the text I'm using which has it as
"Secret Doctrine, i. 31, note"

I really don't think it's needed at all since the author of it - H.P. Blavatsky, is mentioned in the text, but of course will wait for your recommendation.

I think the word correspondentially is the correct one, as there is said to be a correspondential relationship of all parts of the universe to each other, maybe that's how the word is used in this text also.

I didn't notice any instances of singular verbs in this chapter, maybe I missed them.

Footnotes have always been considered at the discretion of the reader so they can be skipped or included as desired, no issue here!

PL OK for chapter 4!

At 6:50 I think you accidentally included "Thought Power" that is the running header on every other page.
13:47, the same for "The Growth of Thought"

And only because you've expressed that text accuracy is important to you, 20:31 text is "and should not be neglected", I think I hear "negated"?

Thank you! Funny, as I was reading Ch 7, I saw those headings and realized they weren't headings and was wondering if I read them as such in the last chapter - and so I did! It's fixed now, as well as the important error of "negated", which is now "neglected". It took 6 seconds off the recording.
