The Vital Message   By: (1859-1930)

Book cover

The Vital Message by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is a captivating and thought-provoking read that explores the realms of spiritualism and the afterlife. Written with Conan Doyle's signature style of engaging storytelling and meticulous attention to detail, this book presents a fascinating analysis of life's ultimate mysteries.

In this enlightening and often controversial work, the author delves into his own experiences and beliefs regarding spiritualism and the existence of an afterlife. Drawing on various phenomena and case studies, Conan Doyle presents a compelling argument for the reality of communication with the spirit world.

One of the strengths of The Vital Message is Conan Doyle's ability to present complex ideas in a comprehensible and accessible manner. He analyzes the notion of life after death and offers a framework through which readers can contemplate their own beliefs. The book effectively challenges traditional religious dogmas and encourages readers to question established norms, prompting a deeper exploration of existential questions.

Moreover, what sets this book apart is Conan Doyle's scientific approach in his exploration of spiritualism. He intertwines personal anecdotes with logical reasoning, using empirical evidence to support his claims. By grounding his arguments in rationality and reason, the author engages readers, encouraging them to explore the possibility of a spiritual dimension beyond our physical world.

However, some readers may find that The Vital Message leans too heavily towards spiritualism, potentially alienating those who do not share these beliefs. While Conan Doyle presents himself as an advocate for open-mindedness, skeptics may feel that he overlooks alternative explanations and lacks sufficient skepticism in his analysis. Additionally, the book may not satisfy those seeking a purely empirical or scientific examination of the subject matter.

Overall, The Vital Message is a thought-provoking and stimulating read that will undoubtedly spark contemplation and debate. Conan Doyle's passion for spirituality and his ability to present compelling arguments make this work well worth exploring for both believers and skeptics alike. This book has the power to challenge preconceived notions and open readers' minds to the possibilities of the unknown, ultimately provoking a deeper examination of our own existence and purpose.

PREFACE

In "The New Revelation" the first dawn of the coming change has been described. In "The Vital Message" the sun has risen higher, and one sees more clearly and broadly what our new relations with the Unseen may be. As I look into the future of the human race I am reminded of how once, from amid the bleak chaos of rock and snow at the head of an Alpine pass, I looked down upon the far stretching view of Lombardy, shimmering in the sunshine and extending in one splendid panorama of blue lakes and green rolling hills until it melted into the golden haze which draped the far horizon. Such a promised land is at our very feet which, when we attain it, will make our present civilisation seem barren and uncouth. Already our vanguard is well over the pass. Nothing can now prevent us from reaching that wonderful land which stretches so clearly before those eyes which are opened to see it.

That stimulating writer, V. C. Desertis, has remarked that the Second Coming, which has always been timed to follow Armageddon, may be fulfilled not by a descent of the spiritual to us, but by the ascent of our material plane to the spiritual, and the blending of the two phases of existence. It is, at least, a fascinating speculation. But without so complete an overthrow of the partition walls as this would imply we know enough already to assure ourselves of such a close approximation as will surely deeply modify all our views of science, of religion and of life...
