Occultism and Common-Sense 2011-07-16T02:00:14.303Z History professes to relate actual events, biography to describe actual lives, and science to unfold and explain natural laws and physical phenomena. The Library and Society Reprints of Papers and Addresses The action of pepsin, of the pancreatic ferment, of zymase, and of other similar ferments has a great analogy with the purely physical phenomenon of catalysis. The Mechanism of Life We had merely caught a glimpse of the wonderful physical phenomena of this remarkable valley. With the World's Great Travellers, Volume 2 These projections or red clouds, mysterious and unexpected as they were to men who directed their attention for the first time to the purely physical phenomena concerned, were in fact, after all, nothing altogether new. Harper's New Monthly Magazine, No. V, October, 1850, Volume I. But before we examine the question of clairvoyance or trance utterances of spiritualistic mediums we must first of all go into the subject of physical phenomena. Occultism and Common-Sense 2011-07-16T02:00:14.303Z Of the five steps in this process, the first two and the last are essentially purely physical phenomena, the chemical changes involved being those of the third and fourth steps. The Chemistry of Plant Life On the effects of this most important physical phenomenon science has hitherto remained entirely mute. The Mechanism of Life Since the world has been a world and since men have been gathered into nations, there has been no physical phenomenon of greater importance than this. The Tremendous Event As usually chances, the Scholars who try to resolve all the features of myth into physical phenomena do not agree among themselves about the mouse. Custom and Myth New Edition So-called physical phenomena are a comparatively modern excrescence on the main growth. Occultism and Common-Sense 2011-07-16T02:00:14.303Z We find ourselves in a world of material things and physical phenomena. Some Essentials of Religion Osmotic morphogenesis is a physical phenomenon resulting from the contact of the most diverse substances. The Mechanism of Life The influence of country and climate on the Greek nationality has been frequently emphasized, and the physical phenomena which moulded the characters of the men must also have affected the women. Greek Women But one afternoon a rare physical phenomenon was reported by a bank of observer Rell. The Hitch Hikers Indeed, it must be admitted that insufficient attention is usually paid to this aspect of ordinary, commonplace, abnormal physical phenomena. Occultism and Common-Sense 2011-07-16T02:00:14.303Z The soil of Vesuvius has been explored to discover the origin of its eruption; and why is less attention paid to a moral than to a physical phenomenon? Tales from the German Comprising specimens from the most celebrated authors Life is a physical phenomenon, and all the processes of life are due to mechanical causes, either physical or chemical. The Mechanism of Life The nature of her profession had rendered her familiar with all the changing mental and physical phenomena that attend the development of disease and the gradual loosening of the silver cords of a present life. The Pearl of Orr's Island A Story of the Coast of Maine Professor Barrett also referred to some "physical phenomena" which had come under his notice. Psychic Phenomena A Brief Account of the Physical Manifestations Observed in Psychical Research The actual fact of the case,—the truth concerning the physical phenomenon alluded to,—comes in, and surely may be allowed to have some little weight. Inspiration and Interpretation Seven Sermons Preached Before the University of Oxford Such explanation of physical phenomena is the main problem of Descartes, and it goes on encroaching upon territories once supposed proper to the mind. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 8, Slice 2 "Demijohn" to "Destructor" The step which we do not as yet fully understand is the physical phenomenon which intervenes between the disengagement of chemical energy and the occurrence of muscular contraction. The Mechanism of Life I wanted some analogy, in physical phenomena, for everything in my mental experience. An Ocean Tramp Two of these recapitulate physical phenomena, with reflections. Psychic Phenomena A Brief Account of the Physical Manifestations Observed in Psychical Research No doubt the thunders of Niagara and the spectacle of the volume of water inspire poetic admiration in the minds of the thousands who have gazed on this striking physical phenomenon of nature. History of Human Society Similarly, the world of physical phenomena which was briefly called� "world" by Minkowski is naturally four dimensional in the space-time sense. Relativity: The Special and General Theory The elementary physical phenomenon of life is the contact of two different liquids. The Mechanism of Life But let us admit that this extraordinary theory is sound, and that LAW is the active agent which controls all physical phenomena. The Continental Monthly, Vol. 4, No. 5, November, 1863 The following account, besides being a record of physical phenomenon, is a curious illustration of the result of not following alleged instructions. Psychic Phenomena A Brief Account of the Physical Manifestations Observed in Psychical Research The phenomena of consciousness are as definitely studied as physical phenomena, and it is no more difficult to account for a myriad souls than to account for a million suns and their planets. Elementary Theosophy If religion has indeed the object which Bunsen assigns it, physical phenomena cannot concern it. The Religious Sentiment Its Source and Aim: A Contribution to the Science and Philosophy of Religion This is the initial physical phenomenon from which proceed all the other phenomena of life in accordance with the ordinary chemical and physical laws. The Mechanism of Life In the scene on the Day of Pentecost full scope is allowed to the physical phenomena, the storm and darkness, the earthquake and the lightning. The Contemporary Review, Volume 36, September 1879 This is illustrated by the series of Thought-Transference Drawings; almost the only telepathic manifestation which strictly comes within the scope of our inquiry into physical phenomena. Psychic Phenomena A Brief Account of the Physical Manifestations Observed in Psychical Research Many features of the social and psychic as well as the physical phenomena of human life have what we may call an organismal mainspring, and become more intelligible when traced back to these. The Truth About Woman The suggestions resulting from these and other physical phenomena are, however, secondary in importance. Essays: Scientific, Political, & Speculative, Vol. I All physical phenomena," says Mayer, "whether vital or chemical, are forms of motion. The Mechanism of Life Careful inquiry among college students will reveal an amazing ignorance of common chemical and physical phenomena after full-year courses in chemistry and physics. College Teaching Studies in Methods of Teaching in the College Then a chapter on one of the forms of Thought-Transference, one which allows of its being included among physical phenomena. Psychic Phenomena A Brief Account of the Physical Manifestations Observed in Psychical Research One might not look for any kind of physical phenomenon which was not due to the presence and activity of some heterogeneity. The Machinery of the Universe Mechanical Conceptions of Physical Phenomena The application of methods of scientific accuracy to the physical phenomena of spiritualism 62 involves no revolution in mental processes or reversal of the laws of logic. Mountain Meditations and some subjects of the day and the war Diffusion appears to be the fundamental physical phenomenon of life. The Mechanism of Life But if he is to study it at all, there is but one place where the analysis of physical phenomena can begin, and that is with fundamentals—space, time, motion, and inertia. College Teaching Studies in Methods of Teaching in the College It is proposed to give one or two examples of each of the important classes of physical phenomena. Psychic Phenomena A Brief Account of the Physical Manifestations Observed in Psychical Research In addition to the purely physical phenomena are others of a more or less mental character. Lippincott's Magazine, September, 1885 Hallucinations en masse are proffered as explanation of the physical phenomena which take place. Mountain Meditations and some subjects of the day and the war Few physical phenomena give us a deeper insight into the phenomena of life than those which we here contemplate. The Mechanism of Life Finally, there were various subcommittees of inquiry into the physical phenomena of spiritism,—the knockings, table turnings, production of spirit forms, and similar marvels of the Dunglas Home type of "medium." Historic Ghosts and Ghost Hunters There is one, and perhaps only one phase of the great subject of Thought-Transference or Telepathy the manifestations of which can legitimately be included among physical phenomena. Psychic Phenomena A Brief Account of the Physical Manifestations Observed in Psychical Research The hand of God was still seen by many in physical phenomena, whether disease or the flight of a comet. Medicine in Virginia, 1607-1699 Human conduct does not lend itself to analysis as readily as do mathematical and physical phenomena. Sound Military Decision It is possible that the study of these purely physical phenomena of periodic precipitation may give us the key to the causation of rhythm and periodicity in living beings. The Mechanism of Life To us of the twentieth century its chief significance lies in the striking resemblance between the tribulations of the Mompesson family and the so-called physical phenomena of modern spiritism. Historic Ghosts and Ghost Hunters Applying the same rules of evidence to physical phenomena generally called spiritualistic, we are bound to admit that in regard to many of them the proof of their reality is complete. Psychic Phenomena A Brief Account of the Physical Manifestations Observed in Psychical Research Each of the numbers two, three, four, etc., denotes physical phenomena, and connotes a physical property of those phenomena. A System Of Logic, Ratiocinative And Inductive What the later generation wanted was a god personal and divorced from physical phenomena, supreme, ethically high, but invested with warm humanity. Introduction to the History of Religions Handbooks on the History of Religions, Volume IV Barisal has given its name to a curious physical phenomenon, known as the "Barisal guns," the cause of which has not been satisfactorily explained. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 3, Part 1, Slice 3 "Banks" to "Bassoon" With them also ought to be noted what are generally called physical phenomena, though in most cases, since they are intelligibly directed, the use of the word ‘physical,’ without this qualification, might be misleading. Modern Spiritualism With exclusively physical phenomena Mr. Gurney did not much concern himself. Psychic Phenomena A Brief Account of the Physical Manifestations Observed in Psychical Research Absurd as this seems when so plainly stated, it is a received principle among scientific authorities for demonstrating a priori the laws of physical phenomena. A System Of Logic, Ratiocinative And Inductive This statement is confirmed by my own dissections, and they seem also to be in full accordance with all the intellectual and physical phenomena displayed in the drunkard, while living.

The World's Greatest Books — Volume 15 — Science We perceive physical phenomena, and these phenomena obey laws. Mysticism and Logic and Other Essays The evidential utility of physical phenomena lies in their being inimitable by fraud. Genuine Mediumship or The Invisible Powers These physical phenomena, however, are as spiritually unimportant and as devoid of religious significance as are the normal bodily resonances and reverberations which accompany, in milder degrees, all our psychic processes. Spiritual Reformers in the 16th & 17th Centuries Thus it is only by degrees that fetishism is superseded by what now appears a common-sense interpretation of physical phenomena; that exorcism gives place to medicine; alchemy to chemistry; astrology to astronomy; and so forth. Darwin, and After Darwin (Vol. 1 and 3, of 3) An Exposition of the Darwinian Theory and a Discussion of Post-Darwinian Questions When complete uniformity has been attained, all physical phenomena will come to an end; in other words, our solar system must come to an end, and it must have had a beginning. Science and Morals and Other Essays The tendency of natural science doubtless is to bring all physical phenomena under the dominion of mechanical laws; to give them, in other words, mathematical expression. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 The will metaphysically considered, Kant said, is free, but its manifestations, that is to say, human actions, ‘are as much under the control of universal laws of nature as any other physical phenomena.’ Critical Miscellanies (Vol. 2 of 3) Essay 3: Condorcet And this applies, I believe, to mediums producing both mental and physical phenomena. The Problems of Psychical Research Experiments and Theories in the Realm of the Supernormal He considered himself of much more importance than any statue he could make, and to get acquainted with himself as being much more desirable than to know physical phenomena. Little Journeys to the Homes of the Great Philosophers, Volume 8 Similarly, my energetic organism is the real a-logical thing-in-itself which I am compelled to postulate in order to explain my perception of physical phenomena in the light of my physical activity; ago, ergo possum. Essays Towards a Theory of Knowledge Let us imagine,' he continues, 'the occurrence of a particular physical phenomenon for the first time. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 The most astonishing physical phenomena came when the contact-breaker was thrown on the table, and Eusapia called out: 'See how it moves!' The Shadow World Some of the physical phenomena of spiritualism are objective—real, external facts; and I am assured that they are not due to fraud or trickery. The Problems of Psychical Research Experiments and Theories in the Realm of the Supernormal It is true that certain physical phenomena seem to be invariably antecedent to thought, but so far science has been unable to exhibit the form of nexus between these physical antecedents and ideas. Christianity and Ethics A Handbook of Christian Ethics That is to say, philology has to deal with physical phenomena, so far as it has to deal with the physical aspect of the sounds of which human language is made up. Harvard Classics Volume 28 Essays English and American No increase of knowledge touching the laws of physical phenomena in the least affects the point of view which these Nature-psalms take. The Life of David As Reflected in His Psalms It is the part of mathematical and physical philosophers to develop their ideas on the inmost nature of matter, while seeking to establish theories capable of giving a satisfactory explanation of physical phenomena. The Mind and the Brain Being the Authorised Translation of L'Âme et le Corps In view of the reality of physical phenomena, I should be inclined to leave the question open as to which of these two interpretations is correct in any specific case. The Problems of Psychical Research Experiments and Theories in the Realm of the Supernormal Many physical phenomena serve to confirm this opinion. Sketch of the Mythology of the North American Indians First Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology to the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, 1879-80, Government Printing Office, Washington, 1881, pages 17-56 Even the defenders of "vital force" would not find any reason in this for not considering the phenomenon of distillation in this case a purely physical phenomenon. At the Deathbed of Darwinism A Series of Papers And we thought we knew something about forces and physical phenomena in general. Spacehounds of IPC Instead of considering physical phenomena in themselves, we shall seek to know what idea one ought to form of their nature when one takes into account that they are observed phenomena. The Mind and the Brain Being the Authorised Translation of L'Âme et le Corps It requires no very profound knowledge of Greek religion and Greek language to discover in the Greek deities the original outlines of certain physical phenomena. India: What can it teach us? A Course of Lectures Delivered before the University Of Cambridge The workings of the human mind during periods of unconsciousness lead to opinions that are enforced by many physical phenomena. Sketch of the Mythology of the North American Indians First Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology to the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, 1879-80, Government Printing Office, Washington, 1881, pages 17-56 The second is also safe from any attack on the part of physical science, for it is primarily derived from psychical not physical phenomena. On the Genesis of Species Fraud, conscious or unconscious, seems ubiquitous throughout the range of physical phenomena of spiritism, and false pretence, prevarication and fishing for clues are ubiquitous in the mental manifestations of mediums. Memories and Studies Up to the present there have been three principal ways of explaining the physical phenomena of the universe. The Mind and the Brain Being the Authorised Translation of L'Âme et le Corps Moreover, these and other such stories are only curiously ornamented myths, representing physical phenomena. Short Studies on Great Subjects You know that under the macroscopic world-of-the senses there exists a complex of biological, chemical and physical phenomena down to the subnucleonic level. Oomphel in the Sky When applied to the much more difficult problem of physical phenomena, we can conceive of an endless cycle of causes, but we cannot conceive of a First Cause. The Necessity of Atheism If Mr. Podmore, hitherto the prosecuting attorney of the S. P. R., so far as physical phenomena are concerned becomes converted also, we may indeed sit up and look around us. Memories and Studies Then comes the question whether this production of thought in the midst of physical phenomena is capable of explanation, and how thought is connected with its physical antecedents. The Mind and the Brain Being the Authorised Translation of L'Âme et le Corps On the contrary, there are crude efforts at landscape-painting, made continually upon the most splendid physical phenomena, in America, and other countries without any history. Lectures on Landscape Delivered at Oxford in Lent Term, 1871 The physical phenomena which occurred in the presence of Stainton Moses were numerous and varied. Mrs. Piper & the Society for Psychical Research Their conversations and discussions were limited to natural and physical phenomena, without mention of God. The Promulgation of Universal Peace I find myself believing that there is "something in" these never ending reports of physical phenomena, although I have n't yet the least positive notion of the something. Memories and Studies My own opinion is that sensation should be considered as a physical phenomenon; sensation, be it understood, in the sense of impression felt, and not in that of capacity to feel. The Mind and the Brain Being the Authorised Translation of L'Âme et le Corps Spiritualism is practically the quest for the demonstration of immortality through such physical phenomena as prove, at least to those who are persuaded by them, the survival of discarnate personality. Modern Religious Cults and Movements We now see further that the physiological effects themselves are ultimately reducible to simple physical phenomena. Response in the Living and Non-Living Thus Einstein’s investigations lead to the first discovery of any relation between gravity and other physical phenomena. The Concept of Nature The Tarner Lectures Delivered in Trinity College, November 1919 Try, reader, yourself, to invent an unprecedented kind of "physical phenomenon of spiritualism." Memories and Studies The physical phenomenon, on the contrary, only reaches us through the intermediary of our nerves, more or less transformed in consequence by the handling in transport. The Mind and the Brain Being the Authorised Translation of L'Âme et le Corps The modern interest in Spiritualism thus began on its physical side and in general the physical phenomena of Spiritualism have become more bizarre and complex with the growth of the cult. Modern Religious Cults and Movements In physical phenomena we are, however, acquainted with numerous instances of reversals. Response in the Living and Non-Living I do not allow that physical phenomena are due to oddities of space. The Concept of Nature The Tarner Lectures Delivered in Trinity College, November 1919 His researches differ in nothing from those of the zoölogist or the palæontologist, except that he has to deal with the physical phenomena of man, while they deal with the physical phenomena of other animals. Prose Masterpieces from Modern Essayists It now becomes the question of passing from this physical phenomena to the mental one. The Mind and the Brain Being the Authorised Translation of L'Âme et le Corps Sir William Crookes' experiments in these physical phenomena were carried on with him as medium. Modern Religious Cults and Movements Thus reasoning, he was led to regard the deluge as a physical phenomenon inviting solution, and as a promising exponent to the climatology of the early world. Outlines of a Mechanical Theory of Storms Containing the True Law of Lunar Influence This theory accords no peculiar character to light beyond that accorded to other physical phenomena such as sound. The Concept of Nature The Tarner Lectures Delivered in Trinity College, November 1919 "Battle," in eleven sections, reproduces the mental and physical phenomena of the attack. Some Diversions of a Man of Letters We have seen that every materialist doctrine is the expression of this idea, that physical phenomena are the only ones that are determined, measurable, explicable, and scientific. The Mind and the Brain Being the Authorised Translation of L'Âme et le Corps The writer recognizes and accepts, to begin with, a preponderance of dependable testimony for physical phenomena not to be explained in terms of any force with which science is now familiar. Modern Religious Cults and Movements We have thus taken a cursory glance at the prominent physical phenomena of the world, and attempted to link them together in the bonds of one all-pervading principle. Outlines of a Mechanical Theory of Storms Containing the True Law of Lunar Influence This completely disposes of any necessity for differentiating light from other physical phenomena as possessing any peculiar fundamental character. The Concept of Nature The Tarner Lectures Delivered in Trinity College, November 1919 Thus astronomy is often separated into physical and mathematical divisions, which take account either of the physical phenomena exhibited by the heavenly bodies or of their motions. Outlines of the Earth's History A Popular Study in Physiography First, it contains no paralogism, no logical or psychological error, since it does not advance the supposition that the mental differs by its nature from the physical phenomenon. The Mind and the Brain Being the Authorised Translation of L'Âme et le Corps We may, the writer believes, eliminate as far as their evidential value is concerned, all physical phenomena. Modern Religious Cults and Movements When certain moods are stimulated by certain physical phenomena, there must be some sort of real causation. Nature Mysticism That if there be a Supreme Reason, he must have reason, and that a good reason, for every physical phenomenon. Westminster Sermons with a Preface As life is a physical phenomenon, appearing in a concrete physical world, it is, to that extent, within the domain of physical science, and appeals to the scientific mind. The Breath of Life Moreover, these and other such stories are but curiously ornamented myths, representing physical phenomena. Froude's Essays in Literature and History With Introduction by Hilaire Belloc There are no physical phenomena in connection with her work. Modern Religious Cults and Movements The wonderful mythological systems of the past enshrine science, philosophy, and poetry�and they were prompted by physical phenomena. Nature Mysticism These semi-conscious centres of force play a great part at séances, and are mostly the agents who are active in producing physical phenomena. Death—and After? Science can only deal with life as a physical phenomenon; as a psychic phenomenon it is beyond its scope, except so far as the psychic is manifested through the physical. The Breath of Life Moral facts have not less certainty than physical phenomena; but moral facts falling under the influence of liberty, all men cannot perceive them equally under all conditions. The Heavenly Father Lectures on Modern Atheism In this he goes beyond Podmore who would eliminate all physical phenomena from the problem, and fully as far as Carrington. Modern Religious Cults and Movements Let us turn to a somewhat more detailed study of the evidence for the reality and potency of the mystic influence continuously exercised by physical phenomena on man's psychic development. Nature Mysticism This personification includes moral and intellectual as well as physical phenomena, and it always proceeds in the same way, from special phenomena to specific types, and hence to abstract perceptions. Myth and Science An Essay Human life is a physical phenomenon, and though it involves, as we believe, a psychic or non-physical principle, it is still not exempt from the operation of the universal physical laws. The Breath of Life Turning again to flames, another interesting physical phenomenon is seen on placing solutions of different chemical salts in the flame. Artificial Light Its Influence upon Civilization He is more concerned with the physical phenomena. Modern Religious Cults and Movements Who shall estimate the effect on the human mind of the physical phenomena of this single river! Nature Mysticism With physical phenomena, however, I am not dealing, though I may say, by the way, that there are many examples of human intellect maturing in middle life or extreme old age. Masques & Phases He walked along wondering whether it was a psychological or physical phenomenon.

Two Old Faiths Essays on the Religions of the Hindus and the Mohammedans It would be one of the greatest achievements of physical science could it shew that life was not inco-ordinate with non-living physical phenomena, but was a special case of them. Thomas Henry Huxley; A Sketch Of His Life And Work The spiritual content of Christianity is a content which lies beyond the region of physical phenomena, whether those phenomena are natural or are supposed to be supernatural. An Interpretation of Rudolf Eucken's Philosophy The number both of questions and problems has been greatly increased and the data in these all relate to actual, practical, physical phenomena. General Science The unlikeness of mental and physical phenomena is so absolute that we must hesitate about drawing any connection between them. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity The parallelist, for it is he who opposes interactionism, insists that we must not forget that mental phenomena do not belong to the same order as physical phenomena. An Introduction to Philosophy A number of these photographs represent etheric and magnetic results of physical phenomena, and these again we may pass over as not bearing on our special subject, interesting as they are in themselves. Thought-Forms Here, as with the physical phenomena, the structure, the special laws and the development must be everywhere separated, giving us three sciences in every case. Harvard Psychological Studies, Volume 1 Containing Sixteen Experimental Investigations from the Harvard Psychological Laboratory. But then, as everybody knows, the exact relation between mental and physical phenomena, even in ourselves, is the subject of endless dispute. Collected Essays, Volume V Science and Christian Tradition: Essays We can not imagine thought measured by units, and until we can conceive of such measurement we can get no meaning from any attempt to find a correlation between mental and physical phenomena. The Story of the Living Machine A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity We have seen that sensations are not in the brain, and their localization means only the determination of their concomitant physical phenomena, of the corresponding brain-change. An Introduction to Philosophy This whole tendency brings into prominence the psychical influence, while it denies the production of these results from purely physical phenomena, endeavoring to explain them in a different manner. Scientific American Supplement, No. 613, October 1, 1887 The physical phenomena are outside of our present purpose. The Unpopular Review, Volume II Number 3 Before physical phenomena that pique most children to cunning endeavour, little Bean was aghast. Bunker Bean How was it possible that the writers of the earlier Scriptures described physical phenomena with wonderful sublimity, and with such penetrative truth? Recreations in Astronomy With Directions for Practical Experiments and Telescopic Work That both mental phenomena and physical phenomena should be carefully observed and classified he may be ready to admit. An Introduction to Philosophy How much do they escape of that pain which in hot climates wears us all down in our efforts to trace moral and physical phenomena to their real causes and sources! Rambles and Recollections of an Indian Official Sensation implies contact and duality but it is no real explanation to say that mental phenomena are caused by physical phenomena. Hinduism and Buddhism, An Historical Sketch, Vol. 1 There is, so to speak, no physical phenomenon in which the notion of time linked to the sequence of our states of consciousness does not play a considerable part. The New Physics and Its Evolution George always mixed up physical phenomena with psychological fact. Balloons The things are complexes of qualities, of physical phenomena; and the more we know about these, the more do we know about real things. An Introduction to Philosophy This both dwarfed the sovereignty of theology and theological metaphysics, and indirectly disposed men's minds for non-theological theories of moral as well as of physical phenomena. Diderot and the Encyclopædists (Vol 1 of 2) Not wishing to hold further conversation with him, and desiring to escape the ever-rising tide of curious questioners, I once more became invisible and proceeded to study the physical phenomena of the Moon. Life in a Thousand Worlds No physical phenomenon ever recommences in an identical manner if its direction be altered. The New Physics and Its Evolution I have spoken here, it will be observed, altogether of the material and physical phenomena witnessed. Lippincott's Magazine of Popular Literature and Science Volume 15, No. 86, February, 1875 Why not admit that these constitute the mind, as physical phenomena constitute the things which belong to the external world? An Introduction to Philosophy The Magic Swingers.—The easily made toy illustrated next is much more interesting than would appear from the mere picture, as it demonstrates a very striking physical phenomenon, the transference of energy. Things To Make Great scientists have studied mental and physical phenomena in inter-relation and have learned certain facts. Certain Success It has now become possible to measure exactly the elements which enter into nearly all physical phenomena, and these measurements are taken with ever increasing precision. The New Physics and Its Evolution ‘I am very far from looking upon all myths as psychical reflections of physical phenomena, still less as of exclusively solar or meteorological phenomena, like Kuhn, Schwartz, Max Müller and their school.’ Modern Mythology He makes the same objection to calling the relations between mental phenomena and physical phenomena causal. An Introduction to Philosophy But as the sphere of contemplation contracts in dimension our perception of the richness of individual parts, the fullness of physical phenomena, and of the heterogeneous properties of matter becomes enlarged. COSMOS: A Sketch of the Physical Description of the Universe, Vol. 1 It is not the mere god of physical phenomena who is here doubted and defended. The Religions of India Handbooks on the History of Religions, Volume 1, Edited by Morris Jastrow Helmholtz, in a justly celebrated theory, endeavoured to fit the principle of Carnot into the principle of least action; but the difficulties regarding the mechanical interpretation of the irreversibility of physical phenomena remain entire. The New Physics and Its Evolution There is no better, there is no more open door by which you can enter into the study of natural philosophy, than by considering the physical phenomena of a candle. The Chemical History of a Candle He regards mental phenomena and physical phenomena as links in the one chain of causes and effects. An Introduction to Philosophy It is in consequence of such difficulties that the psychic production of physical phenomena—save in exceptional cases—is strictly forbidden. Five Years of Theosophy The sun's spiritual power is united with Indra's, but the sun is as much a physical phenomenon as a spirituality, and always remains so. The Religions of India Handbooks on the History of Religions, Volume 1, Edited by Morris Jastrow Doubtless he understood as I did: the overheated rocks, the crackling of the stone, a whole series of physical phenomena, the example of the singing statue of Memnon.... Atlantida Submit all physical phenomena to the test, and you will discern the Principle of Gender ever in evidence. The Kybalion A Study of The Hermetic Philosophy of Ancient Egypt and Greece It holds that the only real existences are minds, and that physical phenomena must be regarded as the manifestations under which these real existences make us aware of their presence. An Introduction to Philosophy As usually chances, the scholars who try to resolve all the features of myth into physical phenomena do not agree among themselves about the mouse. Custom and Myth Concurrently with these physical phenomena were spiritual experiences. Men of the Bible; Some Lesser-Known Characters As tumescence, under the influence of sensory stimulation, proceeds toward the climax when it gives place to detumescence, the physical phenomena become more and more acutely localized in the sexual organs. Studies in the Psychology of Sex, Volume 5 Erotic Symbolism; The Mechanism of Detumescence; The Psychic State in Pregnancy Chlorosis is a physical phenomenon; hysteria, largely a psychic phenomenon; yet, both alike may, to some extent at least, be regarded as sexual aptitude showing itself in extreme and pathological forms. Studies in the Psychology of Sex, Volume 1 The Evolution of Modesty; The Phenomena of Sexual Periodicity; Auto-Erotism Those who incline to this doctrine take issue with the materialist, who assimilates mental phenomena to physical; and they oppose the idealist, who assimilates physical phenomena to mental, and calls material things "ideas." An Introduction to Philosophy It is bound to that like any physical phenomenon to its condition, like dew to the chilliness of a surrounding atmosphere, like dilatation to heat. Prefaces and Prologues to Famous Books with Introductions, Notes and Illustrations It is scarcely exaggerated to say that even its physical phenomena are ascribed to its democracy. A Residence in France With an Excursion Up the Rhine, and a Second Visit to Switzerland With S'a@nkara the forms of the external world were no doubt illusory, but they all had a permanent background in the Brahman, which was the only reality behind all mental and the physical phenomena. A History of Indian Philosophy, Volume 1 "The state of shame consists in a certain psychic lameness or inhibition," sometimes accompanied by physical phenomena of paralysis, such as sinking of the head and inability to meet the eye. Studies in the Psychology of Sex, Volume 1 The Evolution of Modesty; The Phenomena of Sexual Periodicity; Auto-Erotism We find revealed in our experience mental phenomena and physical phenomena. An Introduction to Philosophy Man is affected by purely physical agents--climate, food, soil, geographical conditions, and active physical phenomena. The World's Greatest Books — Volume 12 — Modern History The second preliminary is to realise that all physical phenomena are interrelated, that there is nothing which does not bear on everything else. The Author's Craft The mental and physical phenomena are alike in this, that both are modifications of ajñâna. A History of Indian Philosophy, Volume 1 Then we have the ‘physical phenomena’ of spiritualism. Cock Lane and Common-Sense The phenomena which are revealed to us are indefinitely varied; all physical phenomena are not just alike, and all mental phenomena are not just alike.
