Its Spiritual Societies and Regular Committees have established in all big cities of Europe and many regular Colleges and countless academies of this spiritual science that is, Spiritualism have opened and many books have been written on this science. In this connection, a famous expert on the knowledge of self, Professor Dr. Maurice has written a very remarkable book on the human personality in different chapters of which are worth noting discussions about magnetic sleep, Abkariyat of Wahi and Inwardly Personality. He was also a special member of this Society. We quote some extracts from Page no. 77 and after. Professor Maurice has, first, mentioned those Mathematicians who give the correct answer of even the toughest Mathematical problems at once without thinking during magnetic sleep. More interesting is this that if they are asked that how could they found the answer and they say just this that they have solved but know not how they did! In this connection, he mentions a person named 'Bedler' who could tell the multiples of even biggest numbers. For example, once it was asked from him that what are the multiples of 17861 and he, without contemplating, replied: 337 and 53. Then, when he was asked that by which method or rule he found this, he replied that he cannot tell how. Perhaps, his reply was a natural limit of a kind which is totally free of man's decision and understanding. Professor says that he believes that the incidents of this kind are not noticed first time in world but conditions and incidents of even higher level like this have been already noticed by the people of earlier ages.

All these are the upshots of our Inwardly Body and Spiritual Bulk which have been present in every era and every age.

Professor writes that "now I say with complete confidence and resolution that the existence of a Spirit in the human being is certain which acquires power and beauty for it from the realm of spirits and at the same time I also admit this that a Ruh-e-Azam (Arch-Spirit) and an Overlapping Noor has been pervading the whole realm with which the human spirit can get the linkage". Along with this research he has also quoted extracts of a well known Professor of France called 'Aibu' that "the Inwardly Personality of the human being is that thing which people call 'Wahi' (Divine Revelation). For this state, there are physical qualities and characteristics which are reserved for this only".

At the end, we end on the testimony of Russell Wales who is considered equivalent to Darwin and of similar opinions as him in natural science. He has written a book on the wonders of Spirit in which he openly admits this "I had been a flagrant materialistic and naturalist. This could never come in my mind that a time will approach when I will express about the Spiritual life which is prevailing in the world but what could I. I had, willingly or unwillingly, noticed such observations which cannot be denied. These have compelled me to accept these things are real and existing. Though I was not ready to accept these for long time that such traces are the outcome of spirit but these observations, little by little, impressed my mind. Not by logic or reason, but this was the effect of continuous happening of these observations which left me with no other option except to admit the existence of spirit".
