DOWNLOAD EBOOK →As far back as history goes, at all times, in all lands, and among all peoples materializations of spirits have occurred. The spirit manifestations to-day are but a repetition of those which took place in pre-Christian times. The war and the publications of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Sir Oliver Lodge, W. J. Crawford, and Emile Boirac have given to Spiritism a popular vogue and impetus. By a singular coincidence books on Spiritism, published in Germany, France, and Italy have appeared almost simultaneously with English and American publications on this weird subject. Many of these have given a quasi-scientific endorsation to Spiritism, and have contributed official support to the current belief in the reality of Spiritistic phenomena. Catholic students of these phenomena have never doubted their reality. While admitting and conceding the impositions, frauds, trickery and deceptions of many professional mediums. Catholic psychologists and theologians, who for nearly two thousand years have investigated the subject, hold that materializations have always taken place and are occurring to-day, and that no theory of fraud or delusion can account for them.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Before entering upon any disquisition or explanation of miracles or phenomena of the occult sciences, it is well to bear in mind that the wonders and miracles recorded in the lives of the saints and in the annals of ecclesiastical history are not in the same class with, nor so faith-compelling as are the miracles of the New Testament, which serve to confirm our faith in the divinity of Jesus Christ and in the holiness and perpetuity of the religion He established. Apart from the fact that these testamentary signs and miracles are recorded in books written under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost, and confirmed by the voice of the Church, it must be remembered that they are included in the deposit of faith and may only be denied under penalty of incurring the guilt of heresy and committing an act of manifest impiety. All other miracles, no matter how well authenticated, rest upon what is termed legal evidence, and the Church leaves us free to accept or reject them. This is not saying that, if a miracle is substantiated and approved by rightly constituted ecclesiastical authority and we refuse to credit it, we are not incurring a note of rashness and mental arrogance. But let us bear in mind this truth. We must believe with the Apostles and the Fathers that the Holy Spirit is the soul of the Church and that, while the Third Person of the Adorable Trinity dwells in and animates the Church, miracles will, for all time, occur as manifestations of the in-dwelling of the Holy Ghost in the Kingdom on earth of Jesus Christ, and as testimonies of God's love for his children. Let me predicate however that, without faith in God, miracles, signs, wonders and certain "psychic phenomena" are impossible of solution, and that, without belief in the inspiration of the Bible, they are difficult to explain.

We believe them to be the souls of those who committed suicide, or perished by a violent death. Night is their favorite time for appearing. They seduce the weak-minded and the curious and tempt others in a thousand different ways. They aim to do all the injury they can to human beings.'"

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Dean Harris' "Essays in Occultism" is an intriguing collection of material related to subjects as diverse as demonic possession, bilocation, and spiritism. Largely chastising the spiritualist movement and warning about ouija boards and planchettes from a Catholic perspective, it provides numerous examples of the phenomena it lists, often from purportedly nonfiction sources.From cataleptic monks visiting a dying pope to an apparition that guides a ship to save stranded travelers on an iceberg, it is as much worth reading for its fantastical tales as for the underlying philosophy it espouses.
