Myers, F. W. H. (Frederic William Henry) 1843-1901 creator Myers, L. H. (Leopold Hamilton) 1881-1944 text utu 2012 monographic en 1 online resource : multiple file formats "Human Personality and Its Survival of Bodily Death" by F. W. H. Myers is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The text delves into the profound questions surrounding human existence, particularly focusing on whether human personality can exist beyond physical death. Myers aims to explore and systematically analyze phenomena related to this topic, advocating for a scientific approach to studying the human soul and consciousness. At the start of the work, Myers introduces the paradox that humanity has not applied modern scientific inquiry to the crucial question of the soul's survival after death, a topic vital to understanding human existence. He particularly emphasizes the need for a rigorous examination of the nature of personality, suggesting that traditional beliefs and superstitions have kept this inquiry separate from the scientific realm. Through his exploration, Myers sets the stage for a detailed discussion on how different aspects of human experience—like dreams, hypnosis, and psychic phenomena—may point to a deeper understanding of consciousness that transcends physical reality.
