Many more philosophic minds than mine have thought over the religious side of this subject and many more scientific brains have turned their attention to its phenomenal aspect. So far as I know, however, there has been no former attempt to show the exact relation of the one to the other. I feel that if I should succeed in making this a little more clear I shall have helped in what I regard as far the most important question with which the human race is concerned.

Doyle's First Book on Spiritualism By Zach I have recently been reading Doyle's "Sherlock Holmes" stories, and I have been fueled with curiosity for his other works. So, I picked up his 1918 book entitled "The New Revelation," which was his first book on the Spiritualism and on the afterlife.I am glad to have see another side of Doyle's writings and reading his thought process on the subject, which is very interesting. This is a fairly short book, and he followed it up with The Vital Message. For those are interested in the afterlife or Spiritualism, this book is to be recommended.

THE CREATOR OF SHERLOCK HOLMES SUGGESTS SPIRITUALISM AS A NEW "REVELATION" By Steven H Propp Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was a Scottish physician and writer, who is most noted for his stories about Sherlock Holmes; after the deaths of his wife, son, brother, two brothers-in-law, and two nephews, he turned to Christian Spiritualism; he also was a member of The Ghost Club. He also wrote books such as History of Spiritualism, Volumes 1 & 2 Bound Together as One and The Edge of the Unknown. He begins this 1918 book by noting, "it is manifest that my interest in the subject [of Spiritualism] is of some standing, and... since it is only within the last year or so that I have finally declared myself to be satisfied with the evidence... I have not been hasty in forming my opinion." (Pg. 14)He states, "Mediumship in its lowest forms is a purely physical gift with no relation to morality and in many cases it is intermittent and cannot be controlled at will. Eusapia [Palladino] was at least twice convicted of very clumsy and foolish fraud, whereas she several times sustained long examinations under every possible test condition... I personally prefer to cut my experience with a discredited medium out of my record... The greatest medium of all, Mr. D.D. Home, showed his phenomena in broad daylight, and was ready to submit to every test and no charge of trickery was ever substantiated against him." (Pg. 36-37) He suggests giving mediums a regular salary: "It is only when the professional medium can be guaranteed an annuity which will be independent of results, that we can eliminate the strong temptation to substitute pretended phenomena when the real ones are wanting." (Pg. 38)He observes, "It seemed that all these phenomena, large and small, had been the telephone bells which ... had signalled to the human race... A new revelation seemed to be in the course of delivery to the human race, though how far it was still in what may be called the John-the-Baptist state, and how far some greater fulness and clearness might be expected hereafter, was more than any man can say." (Pg. 39-40)He suggests, "let us look at the light which we get from the spirit guides upon this question of Christianity... There are many higher spirits with our departed... High above all these is the greatest spirit ... one who is nearer God and to that extent represents God. This is the Christ Spirit... He came down upon it at a time of great earthly depravity... in order to give the people the lesson of an ideal life. Then he returned to his own high station... There is nothing here of Atonement or Redemption... When I read the New Testament with the knowledge which I have of Spiritualism, I am left with a deep conviction that the teaching of Christ was in many most improtant respects lost by the early Church." (Pg. 57-59)He argues, "This is why this psychical movement appears so valuable. Its feet are on something more solid than texts or traditions or intuitions. It is religion from the double point of view of both worlds up to date, instead of the ancient traditions of one world." (Pg. 71) He admits, "Everyone who has investigated the matter has, I suppose, met with example of wilfull deception... It was of such messages, no doubt, that the Apostle wrote when he said: 'Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God.' [1 Jn 4:1] These words can only mean that the early Christians practiced Spiritualism as we understand it, but also that they were faced by the same difficulties." (Pg. 91)Doyle was a very influential voice within the Spiritualist movement, and his books will be of great interest to students of this movement.

Spiritualism in Conan Doyle's Later Life By My-Lynx Associates This book concerns Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's musings on spiritualism, which he took quite seriously later in life. He talks about messages from spirit guides and tries to to tie them to contemporary Christianity, the then burgeoning Spiritualist movement was in its heyday and Doyle was to write further on the subject in his later books. A curious departure from his Sherlock Holmes novels. Here are the chapter headings.I THE SEARCHII THE REVELATIONIII THE COMING LIFEIV PROBLEMS AND LIMITATIONSSUPPLEMENTARY DOCUMENTSI THE NEXT PHASE OF LIFEII AUTOMATIC WRITINGIII THE CHERITON DUGOUTFrom the preface:Many more philosophic minds than mine have thought over the religious side of this subject and many more scientific brains have turned their attention to its phenomenal aspect. So far as I know, however, there has been no former attempt to show the exact relation of the one to the other. I feel that if I should succeed in making this a little more clear I shall have helped in what I regard as far the most important question with which the human race is concerned. A celebrated Psychic, Mrs. Piper, uttered, in the year 1899 words which were recorded by Dr. Hodgson at the time. She was speaking in trance upon the future of spiritual religion, and she said: "In the next century this will be astonishingly perceptible to the minds of men. I will also make a statement which you will surely see verified. Before the clear revelation of spirit communication there will be a terrible war in different parts of the world. The entire world must be purified and cleansed before mortal can see, through his spiritual vision, his friends on this side and it will take just this line of action to bring about a state of perfection. Friend, kindly think of this." We have had "the terrible war in different parts of the world." The second half remains to be fulfilled.
