      Sometimes lyrical, sometimes light-hearted, and occasionally irreverent, this book explores "life, the Universe, and Everything," emphasizing that true understanding arises from recognizing everything as part of One Being. This realization aligns various aspects of human knowledge, including scientific discoveries and universal religious and mystical teachings. The narrative draws on ancient perennial wisdom while offering a contemporary perspective, posing as many questions as it answers. The publisher, Science of the Soul Research Centre, focuses on spirituality and promotes an understanding of the common spiritual power inherent in all life. It encourages exploration of the inner spiritual journey, emphasizing that the essence of this experience is universal, transcending creed, culture, and time. The SSRC aims to dissolve barriers between religions and explores spiritual truth from diverse viewpoints, suggesting that while expressions of spirituality may vary, they ultimately converge towards a shared Reality. This work presents a reconciliatory view in the ongoing dialogue between science and religion, aiming to foster a better understanding of these often contradictory fields. Through its insights, it seeks to bridge gaps and encourage a more integrated approach to spirituality and knowledge.

    • ew questions concern man more closely than those of his own origins. How did man and the other species originate? Why does the fossil record of the last 500 million years show such ever-changing spectrum of creatures? What causes the vast repeating cycles of extinction and renewal of species on our planet? Natural Creation or Natural Selection? is a ground-breaking study which points out that we miss a fundamental dimension in our study of life on earth if we forget to look at mind, consciousness and life as primary and formative factors. By applying an understanding of the formative mind, the author presents a radically different yet complete explanation of the fossil record and the diversity of organic life, which not only fits the facts exactly, but also accords fully with the universal philosophy expressed by mystics throughout the ages.

      To Montesquieu belongs the honor of pioneering the movement out of which grew the philosophical dictionaries, encyclopedias, and the literary crusade against mental subjection. If ever satire had a distinct call to duty it was during the Regency in France. Montesquieu adopted the device of a series of familiar letters exchanged by two Persian travelers in France. They were completed in 1721. Popular taste was captivated by the wit and pleasantry of the Letters. They gently satirized the abuses rife in church and state; society was held up to ridicule for its pet sins.

    • Das Geheimnis des Vakuums

      Schöpfungstanz, Bewußtsein und Freie Energie - Die Neue Physik aus mystischer Sicht

      Vakuum herrscht im Weltall, aber auch in den Atomen von physischen Körpern vor. In der konventionellen Physik gilt das Vakuum gemeinhin als leer. John Davidson aber zeigt, daß der vermeintlich leere Raum selbst bei absoluter Nullpunkttemperatur noch Energie enthält - freie, kostenlose Energie, die man zum Betreiben von Anlagen und Maschinen anzapfen kann. Anhand mehrer Erfinderbeispiele wird nachgewiesen, daß das in der Praxis durchaus funktioniert. Doch über diesen physikalisch und technologisch revolutionären Aspekt geht der Autor in seinen Betrachtungen weit hinaus. Er untersucht die Natur dieser geheimnisvollen Urenergie, ihre Beziehung zur Natur und Schöpfung, zum menschlichen Leben und zu übersinnlichen Phänomenen wie Hellsichtigkeit, Telepathie, Geistheilung etc. Aufgezeigt wird, wie Geist und Materie, Energie und Bewußtsein aufs innigste miteinander verflochten sind.
