What And Why We Believe

Dean, Harry

Salvation Books

This book describes the experiences of a group of people who have been experimenting with a technique for achieving states of expanded consciousness. Five of the group are research scientists and technologists, the sixth is a humanities scholar. Although the members of the group were interested in the metaphysical viewpoint of 'life they had previously had no personal psychic or mystical experiences. Nevertheless, by means of this technique they found it easy to enter into their subconscious lives. With the deeper knowledge they gained of themselves they were able to tap into the universal subconscious that lies behind the activities of Nature. They have perceived aspects of metaphysical worlds hitherto described by only a few highly developed mystics. The scientists of the group have seen the normally invisible forces at work in their experiments. They have glimpsed some of the inner workings of Nature and they have made contact with the sources of human creativity. The authors explain their methods and the philosophy behind them. They see no reason why others should not achieve similar results. This book is a major contribution to man's exploration of inner worlds, both in what it reports and in the path it maps for others to follow.

The Pedro Gorino was a top-sail schooner purchased in Norway by Captain Harry Dean for use as a merchant ship at the end of the nineteenth century. Proud of his free black heritage, he was appalled by the imperialism he encountered while sailing and trading across southern Africa. Dean envisioned that black Americans would embrace the opportunity to emigrate to Africa and a country of their own. Tantalizingly close to achieving his goal, Dean received little support and was ultimately subverted by those he thought were his friends. As Sterling Lecater Bland, Jr. demonstrates in his new introduction, Pedro Gorino: The Adventures of a Negro Sea-Captain in Africa and on the Seven Seas in His Attempts to Found an Ethiopian Empire, first published in 1929, is both an exciting adventure story and an important record of black internationalism.
