"History shows that every intelligent man who has gone into this investigation, if he gave it adequate examination at all, has come out believing in spirits; this circumstance places the burden of proof on the shoulders of the skeptic." |

ASCS Conference 2018
[April 2018] We, at the Academy, are happy to announce our focus on formulating plans for the growth and expansion of the ASCS. We are currently seeking contributions (both monetary and in-kind) to help enhance this beneficial and valuable organization.
Included in our expansion efforts, we have been busy in the planning of our annual conference, which, this year, is in conjunction with the Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship of North Carolina. This year’s conference will be held at Unity of the Triangle in Raleigh, NC and will run from Thursday evening,
October 4 to Saturday evening, October 6, 2018. We are currently arranging both workshops and lectures based on the title theme “ASPECTS OF CONSCIOUSNESS”. As in previous years, we have sought to offer a comprehensive representation of the subject matter, so to fulfil this intent, a “CALL
FOR PAPERS” button is located on this page to the right to fill the remaining speaker/workshop slots. Stay tuned for updated conference details via this site, social media and targeted emails as well as announcements made in the ASCS published materials that are available to Academy members.

Instinct, Intuition, and Reincarnation
A profound discourse by the spirit of Sir Oliver Lodge, speaking to the Rev. Charles Drayton Thomas via the famous British medium,
Gladys Osborne Leonard. One unexpected assertion: reincarnation is true.

The Rationalist Spirit
At a series of talking-board sittings in early 1943, the board is suddenly controlled by a very abusive and insulting spirit. After several sessions he turns friendly and reveals his name and London address which were later verified.

Dr. Caesar Lombroso
Most remembered as the founder of criminology, Lombroso was a hard-core materialist before he began investigating the mediumship of Eusapia Paladino. But when he saw extremely heavy objects transferred through the air without contact, he consented to make the phenomena the subject of investigation.

New to Spiritual Experiences?
| | One reason, among many, that prompts people to visit this website is that they are seeking explanations or reassurance concerning a puzzling occurrence in their life.
We have put together a list of some of the most common — a lot more common than you might think — events that can trigger a shift in the way that one’s consciousness relates to one’s spiritual essence. You may
view this list here, and are welcome to contact
us if you desire elaboration or wish to discuss your own experience.
All the volunteers who make up the Academy are glad you stopped by and hope you find this site informative and our work gratifying. |
