Science and the Future Life - An Essay by Thomson Jay Hudson
#christianity #jesus #evolution
One does not have to choose between science and religion. A rational interpretation of the facts of organic and mental evolution actually demonstrates the truth of the essential doctrine of Christianity.
To start:
1. The history of mind and soul in this life is one of continuous progressive development, from the moneron to man.
2. The lines upon which the greatest progress is made in the acquisition of knowledge or the development of the intellectual powers are in the ascertainment of first principles or laws of nature.
3.The greatest good to each sentient creature results from the discovery of the natural laws pertaining to its being. This is as true of the lower animals as it is of man.
4. The more profound intellectual joy that man is capable of exp...

Man's Psychic Powers - An Essay By Thomson Jay Hudson
Dr. Hudson is famous for creating a scientific foundation for Christian Theism. In his time, there was a large movement of spiritists, who believed we can talk to the dead through psychics or mediums. Dr. Hudson used his theories to disproved the idea of mediums talking to the dead and explained the phenomena of hypnotism and psychic powers with his theories.
From Dr. Hudson:
"Jesus, who was master of the science of the soul, drew the line, on strictly scientific principles when he proclaimed the law that belief - faith - was the essential prerequisite to the attainment of immortal life. Faith, in the sense in which Jesus employed the term means much more than belief, although the latter is included in the term. Faith in the psychic sense and that is the sense in which Jesus employed it,...

Dr. Hudson tentatively formulated a working hypothesis for the systematic study of psychic phenomena, encompassing various aspects of the human soul. Drawing inspiration from Lord Bacon's principles in the Novum Organum, which states: "Man, the minister and interpreter of nature, does and understands so much as he may have discerned concerning the order of nature by observing or by meditating on facts: he knows no more, he can do no more." Dr. Hudson believed that the phenomena of the soul should be studied in a manner akin to the physical sciences. He argued that if there is truth in spiritual philosophy, there must be demonstrative facts supporting it. Additionally, Dr. Hudson asserted that crucial knowledge for hu...

How to Prepare the Mind for Success - An Essay by Thomson Jay Hudson
In this essay Dr. Hudson explores the psychological intricacies surrounding success, resilience, and the interpretation of misfortunes. The discussion initiates by critiquing the impact of aphorisms, notably one ascribed to Shakespeare, asserting that missed opportunities result in a life confined to shallows and miseries. Dr. Hudson contends that such beliefs can significantly shape an individual's experiences in a negative light.
At the core of the narrative is the transformative potential of misfortunes. Dr. Hudson argues that what might initially appear as a calamity could, in reality, be a hidden blessing. Mistakes and misinterpretations of one's calling are portrayed as inherent to life's journey. The author encourages the retention of courage, industry, and integrity, assuring ind...

The Law of Psychic Phenomena is a book written by Thomson Jay Hudson that found immense success overnight. The book explores the idea that there are laws governing psychic phenomena, such as telepathy, clairvoyance, and spiritual healing. Hudson argues that these phenomena can be explained through the principles of subconscious mental activity and suggests that the subconscious mind plays a crucial role in understanding and harnessing psychic abilities. The book delves into topics like hypnotism, suggestion, spiritual healing, and the power of the mind in influencing and manifesting psychic experiences. Overall, Hudson's work contributes to the study of...

#christianity #jesus #evolution
One does not have to choose between science and religion. A rational interpretation of the facts of organic and mental evolution actually demonstrates the truth of the essential doctrine of Christianity.
To start:
1. The history of mind and soul in this life is one of continuous progressive development, from the moneron to man.
2. The lines upon which the greatest progress is made in the acquisition of knowledge or the development of the intellectual powers are in the ascertainment of first principles or laws of nature.
3.The greatest good to each sentient creature results from the discovery of the natural laws pertaining to its being. This is as true of the lower animals as it is of man.
4. The more profound intellectual joy that man is capable of experiencing in this life results from the discovery of a law of nature. This is true, whether the discovery is the result of induction or of intuition.
The Christian's conception of continuous worship and adoration of the Father is more than justified; for nothing is so well-calculated to inspire such feelings as the discovery of His laws and the consequent realization of the divine harmonies of the universe.

Faith, in the sense in which Jesus employed the term means much more than belief, although the latter is included in the term. Faith in the psychic sense and that is the sense in which Jesus employed it, is conscious potentiality. It is a power; it is the power of the soul. All psychic phenomena demonstrate that proposition. Without it there can be no psychic phenomena beyond the exercise of the purely animal instinct. It is the creature of suggestion. Suggestion alone awakens it into existence, suggestion can utterly destroy it. Inasmuch as no suggestion of the possibility of immortal life can be conveyed through the embryotic soul of the brute, the conscious potentiality requisite to the sustentation of independent existence does not exist; and it obviously cannot exist in other than an intelligent being. And this remark, according to the philosophy of Jesus, applies to all the brute creation, whether it is embodied in the form of animals or of man."

#christianity #jesus #evolution

Dr. Hudson tentatively formulated a working hypothesis for the systematic study of psychic phenomena, encompassing various aspects of the human soul. Drawing inspiration from Lord Bacon's principles in the Novum Organum, which states: "Man, the minister and interpreter of nature, does and understands so much as he may have discerned concerning the order of nature by observing or by meditating on facts: he knows no more, he can do no more." Dr. Hudson believed that the phenomena of the soul should be studied in a manner akin to the physical sciences. He argued that if there is truth in spiritual philosophy, there must be demonstrative facts supporting it. Additionally, Dr. Hudson asserted that crucial knowledge for humanity can be discovered through the processes of induction, reasoning from observable facts and phenomena.
In this essay Dr. Hudson bases his conclusions on a hypothesis encompassing two fundamental propositions. The first proposition asserts that man is endowed with a dual mind, signifying the existence of two distinct phases of activity or states of consciousness within the faculties, capacities, powers, and limitations of the human mind. The second proposition posits that the subjective or subconscious mind is consistently amenable to control by suggestion. In connection with these propositions, a third one is introduced: the subjective mind possesses the power of transmitting intelligence to other subjective minds through means other than ordinary sensory channels, demonstrating the faculty of telepathy.
Dr. Hudson argues that the Christian evolutionist holds an advantage in the argument over the atheistic evolutionist, contending that the law of heredity is universal and immutable, and intelligence in any sentient creature presupposes an antecedent intelligence transmitted under this universal law. The hypothesis is supported by the idea that the known facts of evolution are demonstrative of the duality of mind, the brain not being the sole organ of the subjective mind, and the lowest order of animal life containing the promise and potency of a human soul. These facts, according to Dr. Hudson, reveal the living God and demonstrate the divine pedigree of man. Whereas an atheist evolutionists states that life spontaneously combusted and all living beings originally inherited nothing from the universe.
Additionally, Dr. Hudson posits four supporting points: the two known ways of acquiring knowledge are through intuition and education; instinctive or intuitive knowledge is acquired by heredity; hereditary knowledge presupposes an antecedent mind with identical faculties; and qualities such as knowledge, love, mercy, and benevolence must be inherited from an Almighty, All-wise Creator. In aligning with the intuitions of the prophet, Dr. Hudson concludes that if man is made in the image of God, then God is an Omniscient, Omnipotent, Omnipresent God of Love, Mercy, and Benevolence, with these divine attributes reflected in the soul of man.

In this essay Dr. Hudson explores the psychological intricacies surrounding success, resilience, and the interpretation of misfortunes. The discussion initiates by critiquing the impact of aphorisms, notably one ascribed to Shakespeare, asserting that missed opportunities result in a life confined to shallows and miseries. Dr. Hudson contends that such beliefs can significantly shape an individual's experiences in a negative light.
At the core of the narrative is the transformative potential of misfortunes. Dr. Hudson argues that what might initially appear as a calamity could, in reality, be a hidden blessing. Mistakes and misinterpretations of one's calling are portrayed as inherent to life's journey. The author encourages the retention of courage, industry, and integrity, assuring individuals that they will eventually discover their authentic path and purpose.
The discussion broadens to encompass the pursuit of ambitions and objectives. Failures in such endeavors are depicted as stepping stones toward eventual success, emphasizing the importance of maintaining integrity throughout the journey. Dr. Hudson underscores the need for individuals not to "lose their grip" when confronted with setbacks, highlighting the psychological principle that dominant suggestions significantly influence life's trajectory. The narrative underscores the significance of truthful and encouraging suggestions for psychological well-being, contrasting them with the detrimental effects of false beliefs.
The conclusion, with Dr. Hudson as the author, reinforces the notion that living a normal life, aligned with one's environment and the Infinite Mind, fosters harmony and perpetual success. Dr. Hudson suggests that individuals who fulfill their duties to fellow human beings find themselves in harmony with the broader universe, leading to enduring success. The narrative, under Dr. Hudson's guidance, advocates for a positive mindset, resilience in the face of challenges, and an understanding of the transformative potential within every setback.

The Law of Psychic Phenomena - Thomson Jay Hudson Audiobook
Chapter 1 - Preface and Introductory
X: https://twitter.com/MetaphysicJesus
The Law of Psychic Phenomena is a book written by Thomson Jay Hudson that found immense success overnight. The book explores the idea that there are laws governing psychic phenomena, such as telepathy, clairvoyance, and spiritual healing. Hudson argues that these phenomena can be explained through the principles of subconscious mental activity and suggests that the subconscious mind plays a crucial role in understanding and harnessing psychic abilities. The book delves into topics like hypnotism, suggestion, spiritual healing, and the power of the mind in influencing and manifesting psychic experiences. Overall, Hudson's work contributes to the study of psychic phenomena from a psychological perspective, emphasizing the importance of the subconscious mind in these mysterious occurrences.
After concluding with his convincing argument of the power of the subconscious mind, Hudson goes on to argue a scientific basis for Christianity based on these psychic abilities. Hudson synthesized the work of many eminent scientists of his time with the findings of the Society of Psychical Research to establish his argument that we are all endowed with these psychic powers that Christ taught.
For those studying metaphysics, New Thought, Mental Science, or scientific Christianity, or for those who want to transform their lives through the power of the mind, Thomson Jay Hudson is a must-read and pivotal figure. The logic and scientific rigor he used in studying metaphysics and mind laid the foundation for men like Thomas Troward, Emmett Fox, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Ernest Holmes, Neville Goddard, and Robert Russell in their work. If you want evidence of the spiritual in this universe, Thomson Jay Hudson is a must-read. He was a century ahead of his time on topics such as epigenetics. In a time when spiritism was threatening the scientific integrity of the study of metaphysics, he laid out a case disproving spiritism while bolstering the world's view on the scientific study of metaphysics.
An excerpt from a biographical on Dr. Hudson:
Without violence to the truth, it may be said that one morning in 1893, Dr. Hudson awoke to find himself famous throughout the English-speaking world. His book The Law of Psychic Phenomena found an enormous sale, which continued at an increasing ratio. His first great work will be the standard by which posterity will estimate his standing as a pioneer in the scientific survey of the whole past field of psychical research. This was in turn, followed by "A Scientific Demonstration of the Future Life." "The Divine Pedigree of Man," and in 1903, & "The Law of Mental Medicine."
From Dr. Hudson:
"My primary object in offering this book to the public is to assist in bringing Psychology within the domain of the exact sciences. That this has never been accomplished is owing to the fact that no successful attempt has been made to formulate a working hypothesis sufficiently comprehensive to embrace all psychic phenomena. It has, however, long been felt by the ablest thinkers of our time that all psychic manifestations of the human intellect, normal or abnormal, whether designated by the name of mesmerism, hypnotism, somnambulism, trance, spiritism, demonology, miracle, mental therapeutics, genius, or insanity, are in some way related; and consequently, that they are to be referred to some general principle or law, which, once understood, will simplify and correlate the whole subject-matter, and possibly remove it from the domain of the supernatural."

Dr. Hudson is famous for creating a scientific foundation for Christian Theism. In his time, there was a large movement of spiritists, who believed we can talk to the dead through psychics or mediums. Dr. Hudson used his theories to disproved the idea of mediums talking to the dead and explained the phenomena of hypnotism and psychic powers with his theories.
It is scarcely necessary to say that the foregoing can be demonstrated by experimental hypnotism. Indeed, it is not too much to say that all the mental phenomena of spiritism can be reproduced by that means. It is, in fact, well known to many that some of the most celebrated mediums now living have been trained to their work by means of hypnotism.
He used his theory of the dual mind (conscious and subconscious or objective and subjective) in explaining psychic phenomena:
Our mental organization is such that it seemed as if we had "two minds, each endowed with separate and distinct attributes and powers; [with] each capable, under certain conditions, of independent action".

Thomson Jay Hudson elaborates on his theories involving telepathy and its relation to the mental powers of us as the children of God. This a history read for those studying telepathy and other powers of the mind.
Mrs. Leonora Piper (1857–1950) was a famous American medium known for her involvement in spiritualism during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. She gained prominence for her alleged ability to communicate with spirits and provide detailed information about deceased individuals. Mrs. Piper's mediumship attracted the attention of researchers, scientists, and scholars interested in investigating paranormal phenomena.
Her case became particularly well-known due to the extensive investigations conducted by the Society for Psychical Research (SPR) and prominent researchers such as Richard Hodgson and William James.
Dr. Hudson disagrees with the Society of Psychical research, as he lays out the logical reasons why mediums do not talk to spirits, but use a telepathic connection to gain insight into a situation.
