A religious educator's perspective
The Rev. Canon John Rossner, Ph.D., an Episcopalian priest and Professor of Comparative Religion at Concordia University in Montreal, had the following to say at a Silva International Convention in Boston in 1974:
"It is essential that human science and spirituality, East and West, understand the nature of man - including his often hidden psychic and spiritual potential - and his place in what, now once again, appears to be a multidimensional and psychoenergetic universe.
"Folklore tales of ESP in dreams, precognition, prophecy of events that took place at a later date, visions of things that were taking place in other pars of the earth or in alleged heavenly spheres, so-called 'consciousness extension' or 'astral trips', angelic manifestations, or manifestations of beings thought to be gods by primitive peoples and peoples in previous ages, tales of spirit communications, and psychic appearances of spirits of the departed form a part of many religious traditions.
"The human race needs the understanding of these experiences. We need a mass movement or a mini movement that does not make a religious hysteria out of the thing, does not put man against may be teaching different religious bases for psychic experiences, but a secular movement in a pluralistic society with a 'psychic development' program, a 'meditation' program that does not require us to make the kind of cultic commitment that will separate man from man, and woman from woman, and child from child.
"This will, in turn, enrich all of the individual religions as well," he continued.
"It is my hope that the Silva system will be taken and used by people of many religious traditions, by persons in many of the natural and social sciences and humanities.
"If so, perhaps some of the philosophers who have thought that any metaphysical experience was purely subjective and imagination, can discover that there is a dimension of reality in which our truest spiritual ideals - intuited by the higher faculties of the human psyche - can take shape and have a powerful effect in forming the affairs of human destiny."
