  • A Case of the Possession Type in India with Evidence of Paranormal Knowledge

After a period of confusion she stated that she was one Shiva who had been murdered in another village. She gave enough details to permit verification of her statements, which corresponded to facts in the life of another young married woman called Shiva. Shiva had lived in a place about 100 km away, and she had died violently there-either by suicide or murder-about two months before Sumitra's apparent death and revival. Subsequently, Sumitra recognized 23 persons (in person or in photographs) known to Shiva. She also showed in several respects new behavior that accorded with Shiva's personality and attainments. For example, Shiva's family were Brahmins (high caste), whereas Sumitra's were Thakurs (second caste); after the change in her personality Sumitra showed Brahmin habits that were strange in her fam- ily. Extensive interviews with 53 informants satisfied the investigators that the families concerned had been, as they claimed, completely unknown to each other before the case developed and that Sumitra had had no normal knowledge of the people and events in Shiva's life.

  • Historical Perspective
    Journal of Scientific Exploration, Vol. 34, No. 4, pp. 717–754, 2020 0892-3310/20 HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE Early Psychical Research Reference Works: Remarks on Nandor Fodor’s Encyclopaedia of Psychic Science Carlos S. Alvarado [email protected] Submitted March 11, 2020; Accepted July 5, 2020; Published December 15, 2020 DOI: 10.31275/20201785 Creative Commons License CC-BY-NC Abstract—Some early reference works about psychic phenomena have included bibliographies, dictionaries, encyclopedias, and general over- view books. A particularly useful one, and the focus of the present article, is Nandor Fodor’s Encyclopaedia of Psychic Science (Fodor, n.d., circa 1933 or 1934). The encyclopedia has more than 900 alphabetically arranged entries. These cover such phenomena as apparitions, auras, automatic writing, clairvoyance, hauntings, materialization, poltergeists, premoni- tions, psychometry, and telepathy, but also mediums and psychics, re- searchers and writers, magazines and journals, organizations, theoretical ideas, and other topics. In addition to the content of this work, and some information about its author, it is argued that the Encyclopaedia is a good reference work for the study of developments from before 1933, even though it has some omissions and bibliographical problems. Keywords: Encyclopaedia of Psychic Science; Nandor Fodor; psychical re- search reference works; history of psychical research INTRODUCTION The work discussed in this article, Nandor Fodor’s Encyclopaedia of Psychic Science (Fodor, n.d., circa 1933 or 1934), is a unique compilation of information about psychical research and related topics up to around 1933. Widely used by writers interested in overviews of the literature, Fodor’s work is part of a reference literature developed over the years to facilitate the acquisition of knowledge about the early publications of the field by students of psychic phenomena.

LTD. THE UNIVERSITY PRESS GLASGOW ; PKEFACE The Society's Library has been completely re-organised during the past year. The books have been arranged on the shelves by subject and date, many useless ones having been turned out ; the important collection of pamphlets has been classified and boimd, as have been several hundred books •"^w bookcases have been fitted and, finally, the present ; catalogue has been compiled on a detailed and luiiform plan. During the next few years the Library can anticipate a further and considerable increase in usefulness : the result of a generous grant of £250 a year for four years made by the Carnegie United Kingdom Trust for the purchase of books and the Uke. At the end of this period those borrowing works, or consulting them in the Society's Rooms, wiU have at their disposal a thoroughly representative collection of books, pamphlets and periodicals on psychical research and on the neighbouring departments of psychology and philosophy. This development wiU involve, for some time, a great many changes in the disposition of the books on the shelves. For this reason the press-marks have not been printed in the present catalogue, and it is therefore at present impos- sible, without reference to the Library itself, to distinguish those books which are available for reference only, and not for borrowing. Such books are kept in cases 11 and 12 and on shelves i.

De directe aanleiding tot deze uitgave is de vraag van de afdeling Utrecht naar een dergelijk boekje, gedaan in de jaarvergadering van 1936 . Het bleek me, dat meerderen mijn behoefte aan een klein naslaboekje deelden, en daardoor ben ik aan het werk getogen en met de samenstelling be- gonnen . Hierbij hebben mij vooral veel dienst bewezen de volgende werken : ,Okkultistisches Lexikon" von Prof . Nagel ; de : „Encyclopaedia of Psychic Science" van Nandor Fodor ; de : ,Beknopte handleiding der Psychical Research" van Dr . Tenhaeff ; ,Der Okkultismus" van Dr. F . Moser ; ,Het on- verklaarbare in het Leven na den Dood" van Dr . H . C . A . Mul- ler en ook het : ,Philosophisches Worterbuch" van Prof . H. Schmidt. Naast dit werkje blijft het gebruik van een goed woorden- boekje, als b .v .: ,Kramers Woordentolk" nodig . Ik heb ge- meend, me to moeten bepalen tot datgene, wat daar niet, of onvoldoende werd behandeld, daar anders de uitgave to kostbaar zou worden . Zo is ook de tekst steeds zo beknopt mogelijk gehouden, daar ik het boekje door een lage prijs onder ieders bereik wil brengen . Men beschouwe dit boekje als een eerste poging, om to komen tot een woordenboek of kleine encyclopedie, waar- in speciaal het spiritisme wordt belicht . Daarom ook roep ik de medewerking in van alle bevoegde, belangstellende lezers, om mij hun op- en aanmerkingen to doen toekomen in de vorm van een opbouwende critiek, opdat een even- tuele tweede druk moge worden een : veel verbeterde, zeer vermeerderde druk!

  • Essay Review
    fournal of Scientific Exploration, Vol. 25, No. 4, pp. 789-820, 2011 0892-3310/11 ESSAY REVIEW Ian Stevenson's Twenty Cases Suggestive of Reincarnation: An Historical Review and Assessment Twenty Cases Suggestive of Reincarnation by Ian Stevenson. University Press of Virginia, 1980 (second edition). 396 pp. $25.93, ISBN 9780813908724. Introduction Twenty Cases Suggestive of Reincarnation (first published in 1966) is a classic of 20th-century parapsychology that can still be read with profit.' Along with Children Who Remember Previous Lives (2001),^ it is an ideal introduction to Stevenson. The latter work, intended for the educated general reader, provides an overview of 40 years of research and includes capsule summaries of several cases, but Twenty Cases contains detailed reports that illustrate reincamation- type cases much more fully. The cases reported in Twenty Cases come from India, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), Lebanon, Brazil, and the United States (the Tlingit Indians of Alaska). They were selected from about 200 personally investigated by Stevenson in order to show the variety of features this type of case presents. The subjects of all were young children at the time they claimed to have lived before. Collectively these twenty cases help define "cases ofthe reincamation type," as Stevenson came to call them, though they vary substantially in detail. The book includes both evidentially strong and weak cases, cases among strangers and in the same family, cases with strong behavioral features, cases with birthmarks and congenital deformities related to the previous person,' a case with a change of sex between the previous person and the subject, and a case in which the previous person died after the birth of the subject.

INTRODUCTORY NOTE By Rev. F. F. Ellinwood, D. D. For several years I have been aware that Rev. Dr. John L. Nevius of Chefoo [Yantai], China, was giving careful attention to certain strange psychical phenomena which were presented from time to time in the interior districts of the Shantung [Shandong] Province. I became more interested in the progress of his inquiries from the fact that upon an acquaintance continued for more than a quarter of a century I regarded him as a man peculiarly fitted to examine so intricate and difficult a subject.

  • Old Diary Leaves, the True Story of the Theosophical Society
    THE"" TRUE HISTORY OF THE ••'• THEOSOPHICAL SOCIETY OLD DIARY LEAVES THE TRUE STORY OF THE THEOSOPHICAL SOCIETY BY HENRY STEEL OLCOTT PRESIDENT-FOUNDER OF THE SOCIETY 'T is strange—but true ; for truth is always strange ; Stranger than fiction." NEW YORK AND LONDON G. P. PUTNAM'S SONS MADRAS THE PROPRIETORS OF THE " THEOSOPHIST' 189s 1;' (. cu i Copyright, 1895 BY G. P. PUTNAM'S SONS Entered at Stationers' Hall. London tTbe tcnfcherboclier ipreee, tXew Iftocbelle, tl. ]^. FOREWORD. IN the history of public bodies, the chapter which relates the origin and vicissitudes of the Theosoph- ical Society should be unique. Whether viewed from the friendly or the unfriendly standpoint, it is equally strange that such a body should have come into existence when it did, and that it has not only been able to withstand the shocks it has had, but actually to have grown stron- ger proportionately with the bitter unfairness of its ad- versaries. One class of critics say that this fact strikingly proves a recrudescence of human credulity, and a religious unrest which is preliminary to a final subsid- ence upon Western conservative lines. The other see in the progress of the movement the sign of a world-wide acceptance of Eastern philosophical ideas, which must work for the reinvigoration and incalculable broadening of the spiritual sympathies of mankind. The patent, the undeniable fact is, that up to the close of the year 1894, as the result of but nineteen years of activity, charters had been granted for 394 branches of the Society, in almost all parts of the habitable globe ; and that those issued in that latest year outnumbered the iv Foreword yearly average since the foundation, in 1875, by 29.9 per cent.

  • The Evidence for Survival from Claimed Memories of Former Incarnations
    The Evidence for Survival from Claimed Memories of Former Incarnations The Winning Essay of the Contest in Honor of William James IAN STEVENSON, M.D. PART II. ANALYSIS OF THE DATA AND SUGGESTIONS FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATIONS Part I of this essay1 provided an analysis of various kinds of data adduced as evidence of reincarnation and hence of survival. The major portion of this part consisted of a summary of 28 cases of claimed memories of former incarnations in which it was possible to identify the apparently remembered person and to show that the facts allegedly remembered matched in six or more items the corresponding facts of the life of the deceased person. Seven of these cases, all previously published elsewhere, were used to illustrate this type of case. The present part of the essay will offer an analysis of the data of these cases with regard to com­ peting hypotheses and then offer suggestions for further inquiries. ANALYSIS OF THE DATA WITH REGARD TO VARIOUS EXPLANATORY HYPOTHESES Before discussing the various hypotheses which occur to me as deserving consideration in trying to understand the data from these cases, I will mention my assumption that the particular statements of the persons claiming these recollections apply to the lives of the persons they claimed to have been. When the claimed memories and the known facts match on only one or even several items, we cannot easily exclude coincidence in the matching. For this reason, I have considered too weak for further study those instances in which less than six items of claimed memories were matched against the facts.
