ts to explain the riddle of human
existence in accordance with a cleverly thought out, but most amazingly
deficient, mechanistic conception of life.
Since the inception of modern Science on your Earth, based on the
scientific method of investigation, its devotees adopted a spirit of
skepticism concerning all problems of human activity not susceptible to
measurement with the foot-rule, or analysis with the test tube, with
the result that the newer Science of Psychology was invented to supply
a reasonable and material explanation for the subtle and mystifying
phenomena of the human mind.
That the conceivers of this science of Psychology have been successful
is attested by the many remarkable explanations given to account for
everyday manifestations of human and animal mentality.
I will venture to say that this idea applies to all branches of modern
science as there seems to be no class of phenomena in the entire
universe, whether in the realm of chemistry, physics or psychology but
what can be clearly elucidated to the satisfaction of all scientists
with the aid of an adequate terminology. So, today your Science in
final analysis, has degenerated into a system of clever word-juggling.
It is true there are today in the ranks of your foremost investigators
and God-inspired men who are seeking Truth. Their names and their
achievements will be treasured by a grateful posterity, and it is to be
regretted that their declarations, based upon tireless investigation
and honest opinion, are derided by their fellow-workers in the Realm of
Truth.
All your scientific theories are based upon certain postulates that in
time are out of agreement with observed facts, and you are compelled to
cast those postulates aside, adopt others and theorize anew. This
fruitless search for Truth must go on until a divergence is made from
the blind trail and the right path is found that will lead you to the
ultimate goal.
Be not surprised, then, that the revelations in this book will meet
with the usual criticisms launched at every new idea of Truth that has
been given to your world from the time man first walked erect and
beheld the stars in the firmament of God. Error must and will dissolve
presently in the presence of Truth, which will abide with you for all
time. HELP HASTEN THE DAY OF THE LORD.
