This book is a scientific examination in the light of newly discovered facts which prove that the Buddhist Doctrine alone is tenable since it conforms to science and explains the complicated mental processes in a simple manner. Twenty-five tables and diagrams explain in detail the nature and classification of consciousness, while the chapters on concentration and meditation are of the greatest practical help to the student and followers of Buddhism. Partial Contents: extreme emptiness of everything that exists; range of variance of the continuity of energy in space-time; evolution; rebirth; range of beings in the universe; Kamma; law of dependent origination; five Khanda; consciousness; sleep; dreams; classification of types of consciousness; concentration; meditation; psychic powers; abnormalities of consciousness, effects of alcohol and drugs and diet.
