Book Synopsis Science, Mysticism and East-West Dialogue by : Job Kozhamthadam
Download or read book Science, Mysticism and East-West Dialogue written by Job Kozhamthadam and published by Indian Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge. This book was released on 2017 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular perception still persists that science and mysticism do not and cannot mix; they belong to two very different worlds. In light of recent developments, particularly in the sciences, the fourteen original papers by international scholars from the East and the West argue that this perception can no longer be sustained. It is becoming more and more evident that the reach of the human mind extends far beyond what can be captured either by the senses or narrow, rigid logic and rationality. Below and beyond the world of science there exists a serene, real world of intuition and insight which is a rich mine of knowledge and wisdom. Recent studies and research show that mystics of all times and all places have had a special access to this world. Today the consensus is gradually emerging that both scientists and mystics share the common mission of being seekers of truth, and their findings are complementary rather than contradictory. This volume also points out that this constructive blending of science and mysticism can serve as an effective catalyst for a meaningful and enriching East-West dialogue.
Download or read book Rational Mysticism written by John Horgan and published by HMH. This book was released on 2004-03-22 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of The End of Science chronicles the most advanced research into such experiences as prayer, fasting, and trances in this “great read” (The Washington Post). How do trances, visions, prayer, satori, and other mystical experiences “work”? What induces and defines them? Is there a scientific explanation for religious mysteries and transcendent meditation? John Horgan investigates a wide range of fields—chemistry, neuroscience, psychology, anthropology, theology, and more—to narrow the gap between reason and mystical phenomena. As both a seeker and an award-winning journalist, Horgan consulted a wide range of experts, including theologian Huston Smith, spiritual heir to Joseph Campbell; Andrew Newberg, the scientist whose quest for the “God module” was the focus of a Newsweek cover story; Ken Wilber, prominent transpersonal psychologist; Alexander Shulgin, legendary psychedelic drug chemist; and Susan Blackmore, Oxford-educated psychologist, parapsychology debunker, and Zen practitioner. Horgan explores the striking similarities between “mystical technologies” like sensory deprivation, prayer, fasting, trance, dancing, meditation, and drug trips. He participates in experiments that seek the neurological underpinnings of mystical experiences. And, finally, he recounts his own search for enlightenment—adventurous, poignant, and sometimes surprisingly comic. Horgan’s conclusions resonate with the controversial climax of The End of Science, because, as he argues, the most enlightened mystics and the most enlightened scientists end up in the same place—confronting the imponderable depth of the universe.
Download or read book Ways of Knowing written by Chris Clarke and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2013-09-18 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world faces a crisis of meaning. The old stories - whether the exclusive claims of rival religions or the grand schemes of perennial philosophy - seem bankrupt to many. The editorial stance of this book is that mysticism and science offer a way forward here, but only if they abandon the idol of a single logical synthesis and acknowledge the diversity of different ways of knowing. The contributors, from disciplines as diverse as music, psychology, mathematics and religion, build a vision that honours diversity while pointing to an implicit unity.

Book Synopsis Science, Mysticism and Psychical Research by : John Poynton
Download or read book Science, Mysticism and Psychical Research written by John Poynton and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-04 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science, mysticism, and psychical research are generally thought to be irreconcilable; this book centres on a towering synthesis achieved by the late Michael Whiteman, an Associate Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Cape Town. It is revolutionary; Whiteman was able to meld mathematical physics and general science with psychical research and Indian and Western mystical texts, clarified by a life-time of psychical and mystical experience, and coupled with an extensive knowledge of philosophy and psychology. Part One is about the experience of states, spaces, and worlds other than physical. It provides essential groundwork for understanding the psychical and mystical. Whiteman’s own experience is combined with evidence ranging from quantum mechanics to the Upanishads. Part Two centres on two murder cases that Whiteman studied, as an entry to the concept of the corporate structure of personality, and the workings of the mind in personal development. Part Three covers his analysis of ancient texts based on his understanding as a mystic. His interpretations differ radically from standard treatments. Part Four investigates his exploration of non-physical existence. Part Five considers the mystical life, including Whiteman’s own, and how it relates to physical laws. The book concludes with a brief biography.

Book excerpt: From the earliest centuries there has existed a Christian theology of mysticism, defining the state which Bernard Lonergan called a "being in love with God."

Book Synopsis Secrets in the Fields by : Freddy silva
Download or read book Secrets in the Fields written by Freddy silva and published by . This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They appear mostly under cover of darkness, complex designs mysteriously imprinted on fields of ripened grain. Except for eighty eyewitnesses, nobody knows how they got there or why. They leave the plants undamaged. They contain mathematical theorems. They encode secret geometry. They portray ancient symbols.Since the 1890s some 10,000 crop circles have appeared beside ancient sacred sites in Britain and 25 other countries. And the patterns are getting more intricate. Governments set up agents to tell us they're hoaxes but the scientific evidence firmly contradicts this view. What on earth is going on? Bestselling author Freddy Silva lived among this phenomenon in southern England, host to 90% of the world's crop circles. In this international bestseller, now published in four languages, he takes us on an exhilarating firsthand field trip into the heart of the mystery and behind the scenes of the enigma, introducing us to farmers, researchers, scientists, mystics, hoaxers and debunkers. He tells: how to distinguish genuine from man-made; what the magnetic field anomalies mean; how sound, light and gravity are involved; how they are made; what the symbols might be telling usDeeply informative and copiously illustrated, Secrets In The Fields remains the most authoritative book on crop circles, even after 20 years in print. This special 20th anniversary edition includes a synopsis of the situation since 2003.
Book Synopsis Science, Sense and Soul by : Casey Blood
Download or read book Science, Sense and Soul written by Casey Blood and published by Renaissance Books. This book was released on 2002-01-12 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world of political and social turmoil, can science tell us anything helpful? Can we make practical use of mysticism-the essence of religion-with its promise of a higher spiritual truth? Is it true that physics and biological science are incompatible with religion? Or can they be fruitfully reconciled? In this groundbreaking work, Dr. Casey Blood shows how quantum physics does indeed explain the true nature of the physical universe. He tells us how neuroscientists can provide an understanding of the way the brain makes sense of our inner and outer worlds. He also shows that neuroscience, in conjunction with a basic knowledge of mysticism, can clarify how and why meditation techniques and other mystical practices work. Most satisfying of all, he paints a world picture in which quantum physics is no only compatible with mysticism but also gives us a deeper understanding of spiritual matters. For Dr. Blood, three diverse disciplines-quantum physics, neuroscience, and mysticism-rather than being in conflict, give a unified picture of human existence. Together they show that the spiritual world has an immense effect on what happens here and now. And they suggest that spiritual practices can enable society to match human aspirations. Though the subjects are profound, Science, Sense & Soul is written in a clear, uncomplicated, readable style. The three sections on physics, neuroscience, and mysticism are mini-courses in the basics of those fields of inquiry. These three strands are then interwoven into an intricate design that illuminates the structure of and reason for human existence.

Book Synopsis Philosophy of Science and the Occult by : Patrick Grim
Download or read book Philosophy of Science and the Occult written by Patrick Grim and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1990-07-17 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book both introduces the philosophy of science through examination of the occult and examines the occult rigorously enough to raise central issues in the philosophy of science. Placed in the context of the occult, philosophy of science issues become immediately understandable and forcefully compelling. Divergent views on astrology, parapsychology, and quantum mechanics mysticism emphasize topics standard to the philosophy of science. Such issues as confirmation and selection for testing, causality and time, explanation and the nature of scientific laws, the status of theoretical entities, the problem of demarcation, theory and observation, and science and values are discussed. Significantly revised, this second edition presents an entirely new section of quantum mechanics and mysticism including instructions from N. David Mermin for constructing a device which dramatically illustrates the genuinely puzzling phenomena of quantum mechanics. A more complete and current review of research on astrology has been included in this new edition, and the section on the problem of demarcation has been broadened.
