In this book author Leon James presents the definitive answers and explanations given by Jung and Swedenborg on the question of our immortality. These two giants of psychology have explored what lies in the vast psychic riches of human consciousness. All human beings are intimately familiar with their own mental world, but few realize that it is part of a collective psychic world that is universal and eternal. We have access to each other’s mental world by deepening our consciousness through the exploration of the collective unconscious. By looking within our own self we become conscious ...

The Lord prepared the mind of Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772) since childhood so that he may author and publish the Third Testament of the Lord’s Second Advent. The Lord appeared to Swedenborg in Person when Swedenborg was 57 years old, and sent him on his appointed Divine Mission. For the next 27 years Swedenborg was in dual consciousness, able to talk to the departed and to explore the entire spiritual world, while at the same time, able to carry out his daily duties and tasks. Swedenborg kept daily records of his explorations and interviews with the people of heaven and hell. The Lord ...

In this book author Leon James argues that the First Advent was accomplished by Jehovah Himself, the God of the Old Testament, Who incarnated physically as Jesus, becoming God’s Divine Human of the New Testament, and that the Second Advent was a mental Advent that took place in the 18th century in the Writings of Swedenborg. These prophetical Writings constitute the Third Testament that reveals the inner spiritual sense of the Old and New Testaments. From then on, every person of all religions is admitted into heaven following the three-day dying-resuscitation procedure of the afterlife ...

The author Leon James originally coined the expression “semantic satiation” in his Ph.D. Dissertation at McGill University in 1962. He then published two-dozen articles in psychology journals reporting on his findings of what happens when you repeat a word over and over again. In the intervening 56 years since then, semantic satiation has been a research topic in cognitive psychology, advertising, aesthetics, and semantics. In the past ten years the idea of semantic satiation has intrigued many people and has entered the popular discussions in the form of music, videos, chat room ...

Road rage and aggressive driving exist on a single behavior continuum. Aggressive driving is not solely how someone operates a vehicle; it is also a mental state, a readiness to interpret the acts of others in a hostile way and a desire to respond in kind. In the mental state of aggressive driving we impulsively take more risks and stay on the verge of angry exchanges throughout the trip. At the extreme end of the aggressive driving spectrum, road rage breaks out and assault and battery occur. Many are surprised to learn that the majority of drivers experience intense emotions in traffic ...

The content of Volume 3 discusses three spiritual secrets that all of us must know for reasons that are explained. The first is the explanation of the expression “three-day dying-resuscitation procedure”. The second secret is how we get to be regenerated so that in the afterlife we may live in heaven rather than in hell. The third secret is about how we are anatomically connected to God’s Word. Knowing this secret in its details allows us to be very close to God since God’s Word is God. So by getting to know the anatomy of God’s Word, we are getting closer to God. And the closer ...

This Volume provides self-test inventories that can operate to assess one’s own driver personality. The items are based on the full classified inventory of the nine zones of driving skills which are also described. The purpose of these self-test modules is to help drivers reflect on driving situations as social and collective events that are made up of people's needs, thoughts, and actions, and how these affect other drivers. This interdependence among drivers in traffic must be recognized, perceived, understood, and consciously managed by every driver. Driving psychology is the K-12 and ...
