Download or read book Studies in the Out Lying Fields of Psychic Science Classic Reprint written by Hudson Tuttle and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-13 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in the Out-Lying Fields of Psychic Science There is a Psychic Ether, related to thought, as the luminifereous ether is to light. This may be regarded as the thought atmosphere of the universe. A thinking being in this atmosphere is a pulsating center of thought-waves, as a luminous body is of light. There is a state of mind and body known as sensitive, or impressible, in which it receives impressions from other minds. This state may be normal, or induced by fatigue, disease, drugs, or arise in sleep. The facts of clairvoyance, trance, somnambulism and psychometry prove the existence of this ether, and are correlated to it. Thought transference is also in evidence, as well as that vast series of facts which give intimation of an intelligence surviving the death of the physical body. This sensitiveness may be exceedingly acute, and the individual unconscious of it, and then it is known as genius, which is acute susceptibility to the waves of the psychic atmosphere. Sensitiveness explains the true philosophy of prayer. All the so-called occult phenomena of mesmerism, trance, clairvoyance, mind reading, dreams, visions, thought transference, etc., are correlated to and explained by means of this psychic ether. All these phenomena lead up to the consideration of immortality, which is a natural state, the birthright of every human being.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Open Vision: A Study of Psychic Phenomena It would be claiming too much to undertake to decide any of these matters for the general public. But plainly we need to take the next step, and those of us who have in a measure seen our way through to conclusions and convictions should help others still in a questioning attitude. We may not be able to persuade any one to adopt our View, yet we may greatly assist the investi gator and those who are heart-hungry by telling how we came to believe in the reality of certain psychical experiences while re J ceting others. In deed we may hold that our own experiences were given us that we might share their meanings and values with those whose interests are similar. And even if we should re J ect all mere phenomena as doubtful there would still be the question of the proper development of our own powers, sometimes called psychical.

Download or read book The Law of Psychic Phenomena written by Thomson Jay Hudson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1901 and republished here by Forgotten Books, The Law of Psychic Phenomena: A Working Hypothesis is author Thomas Jay Hudson's examination of what is here referred to as psychic phenomena, namely hypnotism, mental therapeutics, clairvoyance, ghosts, and many other topics that some may consider fantastical. The purpose of the book, as stated by Hudson, is to "assist in bringing Psychology within the domain of the exact sciences." While there is no disputing that psychology today enjoys the same level of academic and scientific rigour as other fields, skeptics may take issue with the phenomena that the author lumps into the field of psychology. Hudson begins the book with a discussion on the importance of formulating a working hypothesis before laying out his own. The author argues that man has two minds, an objective and subjective, with the subjective mind amendable to control by suggestion and incapable of inductive reasoning. It is with this hypothesis that Hudson carries out an examination of various forms of psychic phenomena. This is not a book for the reason-minded skeptic to enjoy. Much of the text is devoted to what many would classify as the supernatural. Nor does the author offer logic based arguments for skeptics, rather, he dismisses them outright, stating, "I will not waste time, however, by attempting to prove by experiments of my own, or of others, that such phenomena do occur. It is too late for that. The facts are too well known to the civilized world to require proofs at this time. The man who denies the phenomena of spiritism to-day is not entitled to be called a sceptic, he is simply ignorant." If you are not willing to go into this book with a blanket acceptance of the supernatural you will likely take issue with many of the passages. If nothing else, Hudson displays a daring sense of boldness by concluding the book by tackling the subject of Christ and applying his working hypothesis for psychic phenomena to the story of the Bible. While an interesting read, The Law of Psychic Phenomena is simply too short on legitimate proof to recommend as a worthwhile exploration into the topic.

Download or read book Culture and Psyche written by Simon Dein and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-21 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book originates from a lecture series given on Psychology and Anthropology at Goldsmiths College London in 2018. It offers an introduction to psychological anthropology, and will be useful both for undergraduates and postgraduates. While providing a critical overview of topics commonly included in psychological anthropological texts, such as psychoanalysis, culture and personality, child development, personality, emotion, the self, memory and cognition, this book also offers a chapter on Darwin, sociobiology and evolutionary psychology to emphasise that behaviour is not infinitely malleable, but, rather, culture impacts existent biological and psychological structures. As shown here, while culture impacts psychological processes, these processes are constrained by genetic, biological and evolutionary factors.
