Présentation de l'éditeur
The following computer-generated description may contain errors and does not represent the quality of the book.
Are we Spirits? It is not customary to think of human beings, from the moment of their birth to that of their death, as spirits, nor of human society as a spirit world. On the contrary, human society and the beings who constitute it are set over against spirits and the spirit world, as if here were two orders of existence that mutually excluded each other. If the question arises as to what agency, as distinct from a mechanical force, has been the cause of any given phenomenon, like the tipping of a table, ordinary language and thought divide all possible agencies into human beings and spirits. This reasoning implies that if a man tipped a table, it was not a spirit that did it, and vice versa. But if when a human agent produces an effect it is not a spirit that produces it, we are forced to classify the human being under the only other kind of reality which remains. If everything is either spirit or matter, and a human being is not spirit, he must be matter.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. Society is inherently a "spirit world" due to its immaterial yet potent nature as a network of human minds and wills, according to this philosophical and sociological title by an author who posits that the testimonies of all human cultures, from the earliest to the present day, corroborate this view. The author argues that as finite beings in communication, we are all manifestations of a united human mind and share an unspoken language of expression. Throughout the history of human civilization, our collective consciousness has been the guiding force behind both technological and cultural advancements. The author's analysis of this concept delves into issues of religion, morality, and the nature of communication itself. This book challenges conventional notions of reality, inviting readers to reconsider their fundamental understanding of human nature and the world they inhabit, while also offering a unique perspective on the relationship between our mortal existence and the enduring power of the human spirit. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
