Spirit Power Drawings:
The Foundation of a New Science
By:  Colin A. Ross, M.D.

Spirit Power Drawings lays the foundation of a new science. According to Colin A. Ross, M.D. this new science is a marriage of science, religion and psychiatry. It is an ancient way of knowing that has been lost by modern industrial man. Industrial man has "lost touch" with nature, the senses have been closed up and two profound dissociations or disconnections have emerged.

According to his philosophy, spirit is a general property of matter. He calls this energy, Spirit Power. His new science is based on a form of knowledge that is deeper, more ancient, more sensual, intuitive, and more rooted in the natural world.

The experiential foundation of the new science is communicated through text and drawings. The drawings communicate a vision of human life and the natural world that Dr. Ross has explored in poetry, fiction and essays. Out of this vision comes an understanding of mind, body, the natural world, and the human spirit.

Spirit Power Drawings contains pen-and-ink drawings done by Dr. Ross from the 1960s to 2003 in England, the Northwest Territories, Canada and Texas. The drawings are accompanied by text and writings that explain their content. The drawings communicate a vision of human life and the natural world that Dr. Ross has explored in poetry, fiction and essays. Out of this vision comes an understanding of mind, body, the natural world, and the human spirit. The vision is the foundation of a new science, a physics of the energy interactions between human beings and other human beings, and human beings and the landscape.
