ETERNITY HAS ALREADY BEGUN
As is evident, it is not possible for man to transcend his senses
and break free of them. In this respect, a man's soul can be subjected
to all kinds of representations, although it has no physical body
and no material existence and there are no material surroundings. It

perfectly three-dimensional images to be real and is absolutely certain
of their existence, because everybody depends on the perceptions
stemming from his sensory organs.
The famous British philosopher David Hume expressed his

Materialists claim that what we have stated here is a philosophical
view. But the plain scientific fact is we cannot interact with the
original of the "external world." This is not a matter of philosophy.
All medical schools teach in detail how images and feelings form in
the brain. Facts proven by twentieth-century science, and by physics
in particular, clearly show that we can never reach the originals of
physical matter; and that in a sense, everyone is watching the "monitor"

Everyone who believes in science, be he an atheist, Buddhist, or
of any other belief, must accept this fact. Even the materialist who
denies the existence of Allah cannot deny scientific reality.
That Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, Georges Politzer and others
were never able to comprehend such a simple, evident fact is still
startling, even though their level of scientific understanding was
