The Underworld"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No underworld means no religion. From ancient times, since human awareness, everyone has continually wondered if the underworld existed. Or death was the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In science only observable and measurable phenomena are accepted. Mathematic arguments also need to be tested under its laws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Human perception is nothing more than arguments based on the information from the limited senses. Human beings are limited all around to the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond this limitation is all the vast mysterious world. More and more science discovers this miraculous world with slow but firm steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What has science said about the underworld so far?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\">\n<li><strong><em>Vain ghost hunts:<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ghosts are proof of the underworld: If ghosts exist, then the underworld exists. Ordinary people believe that ghosts are the souls of the dead who wander because they cannot go to another world. In Christianism, devils are metaphysical entities, rebellious angels punished by God. They represent the evil and always try to entice people to do evil things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Until now science have not been able to find any convincing evidence to prove the presence of an entity called &#8220;ghost&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This leads to two possibilities: The first is there no \u201cghosts\u201d at all, because they are only the products of illusory imagination. The second is there have not been suitable methods to verify the presence of &#8220;ghost&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is arbitrary and unscientific to assert that ghosts and the underworld do not exist. With present media of observation, we cannot verify if ghosts and the underworld exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the electron microscope finds atoms, then one day hopefully it may find subatomic particles, the environment for quarks and non-physical laws. Many people think this is the world of \u201cghosts\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Things that science cannot explain thoroughly yet:<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Talismans, necromancers, healing human energy, and telepathy \u2026 belong to metaphysics or psychology?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Talismans:<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thousands of years ago, common people knew how to use plants, animals, minerals with special medicinal properties to cure diseases or harm human health. They even found ways of processing or refining these properties. Some experience was publicized to save people\u2019s lives. Other experience was hidden for profit and later mysticized. That is the start of talismans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In fact, talismans are esoteric medicines, effective in human minds and bodies, in short or long term, with mystical aspects woven in. Poisons are real but underworld soldiers controlled by magicians are doubtful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Necromancers:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today few people believe that necromancers are the impacts of metaphysical world. According to scientific explanation it is psychological phenomena, mixed with extremely complex unconscious activities in humans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Is there a spiritual life?<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><em>Healing human energy, or Reiki<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From ancient times oriental people have considered the universe an inseparable part from the human body. Humans do not exist independently, but in organic relationship with the outside world. Humans are a small universe inside the big one, with mutual interactions. This is true in many aspects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Reiki men, in the universe there is a huge source of vitality of growth, affecting everything, called \u201cspiritual energy\u201d. This spiritual energy is everywhere and affects directly on human bodies. Spiritual energy is delicate matter with mechanism of action and operation we need to find out to apply in life. According to them spiritual energy goes through our bodies and works through the seven chakras, corresponding to seven physiological function of the body. If the energy moves smoothly the body is healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Especially, although spiritual energy is delicate matter, it has ethical properties. It is only effective when our souls are serene, altruistic, full of unselfish love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The presence of reiki and its efficacy with scientific verification cannot be denied. Reiki healing methods, as a supportive effective therapy, are applied in big hospitals in the world, although common people do not know or feel it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Telepathy:<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beside the five innate senses everybody has, very few people are endowed with special abilities to view the world around, through a special sense called the third eye or the sixth sense. Telepathy or the six sense is a strange phenomenon which is certified but science cannot explain it yet. The ability to see things beyond time and space among telepathists proves the existence of a world different from the one we live in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Near-death experience:<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The existence of another world is consolidated more in much hard-to-refute evidence, drawn from many statistical and scientific experiments toward the discovery of a spiritual world parallel with the world we live in. Almost similar stories told by many clinical dead certify that death is not the end and the soul really exists outside the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Quantum physics, the scientific path to discover souls and \u201cthe underworld\u201d:<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One thing everyone has to admit is human knowledge is so little and limited that we cannot surpass ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We do not know what is inside the black hole where both time and space do not exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond the immense space, measured in billions of light years, our mind can imagine, human beings are completely lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our knowledge is also lost in the very tiny world of quark particles, the core of which, people say, is only a grain of sand to compare with the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It means that everything we see is empty. It is a verified truth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Matter is only energy:<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Albert Einstein stated that \u201cWe are all wrong about matter. Things we call matter is just energy vibrating at very low frequency, and thus we can feel them with our senses. In fact there is nothing called matter\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Doctor Fred Alan Wolf (1934), one of the famous quantum physicists, said: \u201cQuantum physics has brought completely new knowledge about particle and the empty space inside them. In subatomic physics, mass is not viewed as matter material, but as pure energy\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also declared: \u201cThere is enough evidence that the spiritual factor was substantially there in the formation of the physical universe\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Max Planck was Albert Einstein\u2019s teacher. He was the father of quantum theory and won the Nobel Prize for this this theory in 1918. He said: \u201cIn the world there is basically nothing called \u201cmatter\u201d; matter is formed from the combination of quanta in high-speed vibration\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, according to Planck, there is a visible world we see when quanta vibrate in low frequency and an invisible world, called spiritual one, when quanta vibrate in high frequency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>What is a soul?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thus what is a soul actually?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Professor Doctor Hans-Peter Dur, former director of Max Planck Institute of Physics in Munich, Germany, thought: \u201cThe parallel existence of the soul and the body is as real as the parallel existence of waves and the tiniest particles\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the professor, the quantum state of universe exist in both alive and dead objects: We only see the material aspects of this world. What created the world is beyond material aspects and it is much bigger than this world. In this was our life is covered by the life after we die.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jeremy Hayward, nuclear physicist and molecular biologist of Cambridge University, UK, in formed: \u201cIt is really a mistake if we eliminate the soul from nature.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Physicist John Polkinghorne defined the soul as the information part inside the nucleus. This soul part will not be rotted when we die, but God will use it for resurrection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CONCLUSION:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not only the solid universe we live in is real.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The existence of another world is certain. The underworld is real. The soul exists and continues to exist after death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We do not know what the other life is and how it operates. We are just like blind fortune tellers describing an elephant. Perhaps our minds are not designed by God to understand what the &#8220;absolute&#8221; is like. We only know that the &#8220;absolute&#8221; exists as an indispensable link to be able to explain everything.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>No underworld means no religion.
