Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Death and Its Mystery Before Death: Proofs of the Existence of the Soul
Of experimentation to which humanity owes all the progress that has been realized by science? IS the attempt logical? Are we not face to face with the mysteries of an invisible world which is different from that which lies before our senses and which cannot be penetrated by our methods Of positive investigation? May we not essay, seek to find whether or not certain facts, if carefully and correctly Observed, are susceptible Of being scientifically analyzed and accepted as real by the severest criticism? 'we want-no more fine words, no more metaphysics. Facts! Facts!
It is a question Of our fate, our destiny, our personal future, our very existence.
It is not cold reason alone that demands an answer; it is not only the mind; it is our longings, our heart also.
It is childish and may appear conc'eited to bring one's own self upon the scene, but it is sometimes difficult to refrain from doing so; and as I have undertaken these laborious re searches primarily in order to answer the questions of sor rowing hearts it seems to me that the most logical preface to this book will be furnished by some Of those innumerable confidential communications which have reached me during more than half a century, begging with anguish for the solu tion Of the mystery.
