Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Precognition is the hardest aspect of parapsychology for us to understand yet the easiest to experience and to test scientifically in the laboratory. Retrocognition occurs but is reported much more rarely. Hundreds of studies have been made of spontaneous precognition experiences and of controlled experiments in the laboratory. The use of modern electronic instruments has confirmed this. Even dreams have been shown to come true in the laboratory. This essay, chapter 6 from Psychic Exploration, studies precognition and retrocognition. The full volume of Psychic Exploration can be purchased as an ebook or paperback version from all major online retailers and at cosimobooks.com.

Download or read book Miracles A Very Short Introduction written by Yujin Nagasawa and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-11-16 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus turned water into wine, Mohammad split the moon into two, and Buddha walked and spoke immediately upon birth. According to recent statistics, even in the present age of advanced science and technology, most people believe in miracles. In fact, newspapers and television regularly report alleged miracles, such as recoveries from incurable diseases, extremely unlikely coincidences, and religious signs and messages on unexpected objects. In this book the award-winning author and philosopher Yujin Nagasawa addresses some of our most fundamental questions concerning miracles. What exactly is a miracle? What types of miracles are believed in the world's great religions? What do recent scientific findings tell us about miracles? Can we rationally believe that miracles have really taken place? Can there be acts that are more religiously significant than miracles? Drawing on a vast variety of fascinating examples from across the major religions, Nagasawa discusses the lively debate on miracles that ranges from reported miracles in ancient scriptures in the East and West to cutting-edge scientific research on belief formation. Throughout, he drives us to ask ourselves if and how we can still believe in in miracles in the twenty-first century.

Download or read book ESP and Psychokinesis written by Stephen E. Braude and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work was the first sustained philosophical study of psychic phenomena to follow C.D. Broad's LECTURES ON PSYCHICAL RESEARCH, written nearly twenty years earlier. The author clearly defines the categories of psychic phenomena, surveys the most compelling experimental data, and traces their implications for the philosophy of science and the philosophy of mind. He considers carefully the abstract presuppositions underlying leading theories of psychic phenomena, and he offers bold criticisms of both mechanistic analyses of communication and psychophysical identity theories. In addition, he challenges the received view that experimental repeatability is the paramount criterion for evaluating parapsychological research, and he exposes the deep confusions underlying Jung's concept of synchronicity.

Download or read book Paradigm shift towards a spiritual worldview written by Franz Günter Leicht and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the middle/ end of 1993 I have been grappling intensively with questions about our existence. This book is the result of my long-term study, with which I have tried to inspect our current worldview - the materialistic worldview. It shows that the sciences have come up with answers that question their own assumptions and ideas about this world. E.g. the world-famous physicist Stephen W. Hawking said that it is not really possible for physics to clarify whether the material world is a real world. According to the latest findings in physics, the material world can also be an imaginary world. I'm investigating this question in detail and come to the conclusion that we need a new worldview. This is the spiritual worldview. This new worldview clearly states that there is a non-material spirit that is responsible for the material world. What this means for each and every one of us is revealed in this study.
