Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spiritism and Psychology In the original this work is more than three times the length of the present volume, and the task of abridgment has been considerable. I believe, how ever, that almost the whole of the author's argument has been preserved in statu quo, and that his analysis has not materially suffered as the result of this con densation. A large proportion of the original volume was composed of cases collected by Professor Flour noy as the result of a Questionnaire on Mediumship sent out by him. These cases it has been found im.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Man's Unconscious Spirit: The Psychoanalysis of Spiritism On a subject in which all my unconscious desire would be centred, if consciousness permitted me to know that a proof was available, I do not, from one point of view, wish to be heard at all. But it has seemed to me that enough importance, to make it wholly worth while, attaches to the question which one might, as a student of psychoanalysis, put to the psychical researchers, namely, How can you say so confidently that such and such things have happened when we really, as yet, know so little about the part played in all these phenomena by the unconscious Wishes of the medium and of the oh servers?

Download or read book Spiritism and Psychology written by Theodore Flournoy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spiritism and Psychology One or two words may not be out of place as to my reasons for writing a book of this character. I believe that scientific investigators - physicians, physiologists, psychologists - have made a great mistake in neglecting for so long the so-called supernormal or metapsychical phenomena, under the pretext that there is nothing to be found but illusion or charlatanism, and have left its study exclusively to spiritists, theosophists, mystics, and occultists of all kinds. Fortunately, to-day it is almost like forcing open a door which is already open to insist upon the necessity of seriously occupying one's self with this subject, since the official savants themselves have ended by perceiving that there is here a realm worthy of serious investigation, whence issues unexpected light as to the nature of the constitution of our being and the play of our faculties. It will be a great day when the subliminal psychology of Myers and his followers and the abnormal psychology of Freud and his school succeed in meeting, and will supplement and complete each other. That will be a great forward step in science and in the understanding of our nature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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 The New Psychology Classic Reprint written by E. W. Scripture and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Psychology During the last few years 'a wide interest has been aroused in the growth of a science of mental life which employs methods hitherto peculiar to the physical sciences. The interest has been followed by misconceptions of the most varied character. Some have supposed the new science to concern itself with experiments on thought-transference and clairvoyance others have regarded it as a presumptuous sub-depart ment of the physiology of the senses and the brain and still others have treated it as merely a materialistic 'philosophy in one of its aberrations. Amid such confusion it is no wonder that people ask: What is the new psychology? Is it brain physiology, or spiritualism, or a new kind of meta physics? And the chemist, geologist, or physicist is also inclined to ask: Is it a science at all? My aim in this book is to show just what the new psychology is. I have sought to make clear the funda mental ideas of the science, and have not attempted to 'cover the whole field of investigation. Salient points and fundamental methods were chosen rather than a multitude of details. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Life of the Spirit and the Life of Today Classic Reprint written by Evelyn Underhill and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evelyn Underhill was a renowned pacifist and Christian mystic. Her writings on religion were famous in her day and still resonate right up to the present. This book was drawn and expanded from some talks Underhill gave in Oxford, in which she attempted to link psychology and spirituality. She also discusses the place of institutional religion and of spirituality in the context of wider society. As elsewhere in her writings she emphasises the wonder of incarnation and life. The Life of the Spirit and the Life of Today is certainly recommended for fans of Underhill, but any religious individual will find resonance in her writing and should certainly take the time to explore why she was so influential.

Download or read book The Psychology of Prayer Classic Reprint written by Anna Louise Strong and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-07-28 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychology of Prayer Religion, whatever else it may signify, belongs to the social aspects of our experience. It is relation to some other. It matters not that the other is not seen. The man of faith lives as seeing him who is invisible. He finds terms for this other in lan guage borrowed largely from human society. God is Father, Lord, King, Redeemer, Friend, the Great Companion. As implying social relation religion belongs therefore with other parts of life which in volve this adjustment to others, this union with others, to produce and become what would be impos sible for any one by himself alone. Whatever we may think of religious experience, it takes its place in human life and human history along with science, morality, and art, as a sphere in which man has developed a personality, a self, of peculiar range and quality. These aspects of human life as being in them selves most significant have repeatedly invited at tention. The eighteenth century made brilliant in vestigations in this field. The nineteenth century turned its interest largely to chemical and biological problems, and we reap the results in our industries, and in our control over disease. In its closing dec ades, a measure of scientific activity was directed upon the mental life, attacking at first chiefly the simple problems which could be studied in labora tories. But now with some of these more elementary problems on the way toward solution, interest is naturally turning again to what is after all of deep est interest - the world of personal relations. We have as yet scarcely made a beginning in applying to the more complex and more vitally important fields of life the scientific spirit and method which have disclosed new meaning and value in the world of nature. We are seeking to understand more fully what mind and Spirit mean in those capacities and activities due to social forces.

This book was released on 2017-12-08 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nature and Tendency of Modern Spiritualism This work lays no claim to literary merit, or to philosophic or scientific research. Our course has not been in that di rection. Our aim has not been to gratify a taste for such reading, but rather to make our pages useful. Nor have we aimed to please any particular class, but rather to fulfill the requirement to speak the truth in faithfulness, whether men will hear or whether they will forbear. We have written especially for the benefit of those who fear God, and tremble at his word. While we believe that in these pages is contained the only true solution of these mysterious phenomena, we would re mind the readers that eu intellectual conviction, or mere be lief of the truth, will not shield them from the power of these deceptions. Nothing short of humble obedience to the truth, walking in the Spirit of God, will shield from the spirit of error. If any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. Though he may be convinced of the truth, yet if the spirit of error reigns in his heart, the coming conflict will surely find him arrayed against the Lamb and his army. That you, dear reader, may be sanctified through the truth, and hid in the sure refuge in the time of trouble, is the prayer of the writer. J. H. W.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A System of Biblical Psychology The translator is assured that nothing is needed on his part to commend this remarkable work to the philosophical student of theology in England, beyond an apology for the imperfections of the English garb in which it appears. The great and growing interest of the subject, and the profound and exhaustive learning which the author has brought to bear upon its treatment, had made the translation of this hook a desideratum to many, who only knew it by casual reference and quotation, long before this attempt was contemplated. But the hope that such a work would fall into thoroughly competent hands was indulged in vain, when, by the enterprise of the publishers of the Foreign Theological Library, the present translator was encouraged to do what he could to supply the need. The result of his endeavour is here presented to the English biblical student as a mine of wonderful depth and fertility, which will well repay those who have the courage to pierce through a somewhat unattractive surface.
