Metapsychic Investigations and Scientific Research Society
The Society's Origin
The Metapsychical Investigations and Scientific Research Society was founded in 1950 by Dr. Bedri Ruhselman, who was a medical doctor. It has been in operation ever since, and has been expanding constantly. Ergun Arkdal, the previous president of the Society, was a leading researcher and, with 40 years of experience, a forerunner in the field.
Purpose
The purpose of the Metapsychical Investigations and Scientific Research Society is:
1. to study spiritual (psychic) phenomena, explaining them in a scientific way;
2. to carry out all kinds of psychic experiments and research in order to investigate human existanca;
3. to conduct various practical studies with the purpose of helping people physically and spiritually;
4. to work towards the expansion of higher moral principles and help bring to light superior values; and
5. to advance the understanding of events and abilities commonly described as 'psychic' or 'paranormal', without prejudice and in a scientific spirit.
The Society accomplishes these aims through the promotion of research and the publication of scholarly reports. It also organizes educational activities and publications to keep the general interested public informed about current, relevant research.
Field of Study
The principal areas of interest in our psychical research are mediumistic studies and spiritual communication through hypnotic processes, and educational studies to evaluate the large volume of knowledge received through mediumistic seances. Other areas include extrasensory perception, by which someone appears to acquire information concerning an event or another person by unknown means, and pyschokinesis, the phenomenon wherein someone appears to be inexplicably able to influence the physical environment through psychic power alone. « Previous Next »
