Spiritual Scientific Research
As the telescope opened up the skies to reveal that our planet is
but a speck in an infinite universe, and, the microscope revealed
the myriad of creatures hitherto invisible to us, so mediumship,
through reason, study, and experimentation will assist mankind to
ascertain and prove our own true natures. Mainstream science is
seriously studying what has been called "psychic phenomena", and,
what traditional religions want us to believe solely by faith, will
be eventually proven to the general population to exist by proofs.
Scientists are currently studying among other things: telepathy, the
power of prayer, religious healing, the affects of religious belief
on health, the abilities of people who call themselves mediums, and,
they are obtaining amazing results. These scientists may not know
yet how to interpret the data retrieved but, this will come in time
as more evidence is accumulated.
As the theory of evolution has been generally accepted to be true,
by rational and educated people, eventually the existence of the
soul and its natural properties will also become a scientific fact,
based on the preponderance of evidence obtained via serious
spiritual scientific research.
There is a material world and a spiritual world, and we are part
material and part spiritual; both these aspects must be studied in
order to have a more complete understanding of the natural laws that
govern the universe. Mankind and its science has now advanced in the
scientific method and in technology, to the extent wherein study of
the spiritual part of our natures and the spirit world, and its
interaction with the material world, can be better accomplished
without attributing these natural phenomena, subject to natural
laws, to superstition and religious fanaticism. Most major
traditional religions already accept the existence of the soul and
its immortality, but people nowadays want to accept these things
through reason not only by faith. The conclusion that spirits and a
spiritual world truly exists, and further, that reincarnation
provides for spiritual progression and is one of the natural laws of
the universe, will definitely have a profound affect on many
sciences, as well as philosophy and religion.
