Quote:Terence Palmer, PhD, is author of The Science of Spirit Possession. He is a member of the Society for Psychical Research as well as the Scientific and Medical Network. He is also a fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine. In this 2016 video, he suggests that there exists an immune system for the human psyche that serves to protect us from invading thought forms and spiritual entities. This system is traditionally identified by spiritists as the “perispirit” and by Theosophists as the “etheric body”. It can be enhanced through the use of visualization and mental imagery. A number of examples are discussed, and the viewer is invited to link to a seven-minute exercise prepared by Dr. Palmer. While such a discussion may appear to be steeped in superstitious thought, he maintains that there are regularities in his observations that invite one to apply scientific thinking.
The daily meditation is found here:
'Historically, we may regard materialism as a system of dogma set up to combat orthodox dogma...Accordingly we find that, as ancient orthodoxies disintegrate, materialism more and more gives way to scepticism.'
