Excerpt from Bridging the Great Divide, Vol. 1: Between the Physical and the Spiritual Worlds
The substance of this volume is the result of a truth-seeker's painstaking researches. Again and again he had to make the humiliating confession of Goethe's Faust:
I've studied now Philosophy
And Jurisprudence, Medicine, -
And even, alas! Theology, -
From end to end, with labor keen;
And here, poor fool! with all my lore
I stand, no wiser than before,...
And see that nothing can be known! -
Although intuitively believing in the immortality of the Soul, the author was not cognizant of any scientific possibility that could raise this belief to a demonstrable certainty.
Inspiring and comforting as the pages of the New Testament were to him, even they proved to be inadequate fully to satisfy the Soul's Craving for Knowledge.
