Three Proofs That God Exists

Walt Runkis

Description

Scientifically combining Eastern mysticism and Western metaphysics with miracles and magic, and elements from near-death experiences, death-related visions, proven accounts of reincarnation, archaeological evidence, and an esoteric grasp of the arcane mysteries, Three Empirical Proofs shine forth. This structure of empirical evidence proves, to a "statistical certainty," that all of these diverse phenomena are the intricately interrelated workings of the "Non-Mechanical Universe," the Cosmic Consciousness that we call God. Walt Runkis is an autodidact and Renaissance man: scientist, inventor, artist, goldsmith, author, and serial entrepreneur. He has two patents issued in immunochemistry, plus three patents issued and one pending in cryptographic network cyber security. Walt was born with a high IQ and an insatiable curiosity. His left brain delved deeply enough into chemistry and physics to give him a basic understanding of how the mechanical universe works, while his right brain stretched his consciousness far enough to know it is not a mechanical universe in which we live. Walt was a decorated Sergeant E-5 in the U.S. Marine Corps, where he served as a Marine ASRAT for a year in Chu Lai and Marble Mountain, Vietnam (1965-66).

Acknowledgments
Thank you, Luz Alva Bullock, Nikki Main, and Eve Carson, for recognizing the value of this work and guiding it toward publication.
Heartfelt thanks to Richard L. Damrow and Richard P. Sommerfeld for sharing their business expertise and their appreciation for my eccentric spiritual universe.
Special thanks to Major General John M. Wallace (USAF Ret.), General Manager of Canton Municipal Utilities, for supporting my research, sharing his wisdom, and being my friend all these years. And to Bert Massey, Frank W. Phillips, and Dale A. Flippo; you are the loyalist and brightest business partners, and kindest friends, I have ever known.
In addition, I owe a debt of gratitude to my coinventors of several inventions: Anthony R. Torres, MD, Donald E. Martin, Christopher D. Watkins, Jeffery J. Brom­berger, Peter A. Scott, and Paul G. Rudolf, PhD. You are all, without doubt, the most brilliantly creative scientists and engineers I ever knew. Working with you was both an honor and a joy. And to the best patent attorney ever, Dale S. Lazar at DLA Piper, without your brilliantly crafted legalese and generosity, my vision would have died aborning. You are, without doubt, The Mozart of Legalese.
Furthermore, I want to thank the unsung heroes: the investors and stakeholders who risked their hard-earned money to make my inventions a reality—especially: Joy Lambert Phillips, Steven Halpern, Robert D. Parker, Paul Feher, Gary and Victor Williams, Dick and Bunny Baxter, John Pahlman, and Sam Agnew for “saving my bacon” when I desperately needed a helping hand.
And last, but not least, special thanks to Melvin L. Morris, M.D. for critiquing this book and urging me to show more of myself. I added my inventions, jewelry, visionary art, songs, litanies, and stories. It’s more colorful now: more who I really am.
Preface
This is a factual account of miracles and magic. It employs a method called “The Three Keys” to provide empirical proof that God exists. The Three Keys are Eastern Mysticism, Western Metaphysics, and Science.
Miracles, by themselves, are not sufficient proof that God exists, but they can serve as elements of that proof. When Eastern Mysticism and Western Metaphysics are scientifically combined with miracles and ele­ments from near-death experiences, archeol­ogical evidence, death-related visions, scien­tific accounts of reincarnation, and an esoteric grasp of the arcane mysteries, the “Three Empirical Proofs” shine forth.
Three Proofs That God Exists is a distillation of over sixty years’ exper­ience. Part of it chronicles my spiritual journey, but it is not really about me. It’s about miracles and magic—non-ordinary events I call cracks in the laws of physics —that anyone can experience and may already have. It is my sin­cere hope that the body of evi­dence presented here will empower spiritual seekers to exam­ine their deeply entrenched beliefs and formu­late ques­tions potent enough to break the bonds of dogmatic think­ing that continues to stunt man­kind’s spiritual evolution. Three Proofs That God Exists reveals secret teachings and valuable insights aspirants can use to unearth the timeless wisdom only direct experience can cultivate. More import­antly, it offers serious aspirants a path to God-Realization.
Three Proofs That God Exists was created from the perspective of a “Christian renegade,” which means I am not, in the classical sense, a Christian, Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, or Jew. What I am is a God-Realized scientist and disciple of Christ. I had my first “brush with the Cosmos” in 1967, during a near-death experience, when I strolled in a celestial garden of unparalleled beauty and communed with a formless being of masculine voice. He admonished me to “Look to beauty, look to the East, and never become a part of an organized religion.” I ac­cepted his edict, and while I am tolerably well-read regarding spirit­ual matters, and for­tunate enough to have met a few very talented spiritual teachers, my evolution was guided mostly by the lessons my personal experi­ences taught me—provided the resulting insights held up to scientific scrutiny.
Scientifically proving that God exists is a tall order; some would say im­possible. While it is not impossible, it does demand much of the reader.
Proving God exists is not a task that can be accomplished with a couple of glib sound bites. Readers will have to work for it if they truly want to “get their arms around it.” The study of God, after all, is the study of infinity.
The Three Empirical Proofs and their supporting data were built brick by brick from a wide variety of eclectic sources. Three Proofs That God Exists is not a self-contained, quick fix, self-help book. It is a care­fully crafted journey that lays a foundation toward realizing your Higher Self. Its narrative style is an easy read, but don’t let that fool you; like life, the further you wade into it, the deeper it gets. Further­more, what it provides between the covers is only part of its value. It is also a resource manual that opens doorways onto panoramas that beg further exploration. Most will be satiated by what is included here, while others will want to follow pathways that lead to deeper levels of wisdom. Go where it com­fortably takes you and be happy.
Spirituality was never meant to be a spectator sport. It is, or at least it should be, a dynamic, ever-changing, intra­personal experience in which you must totally immerse yourself to get anything worthwhile out of it. Spirit­uality needs to be lived—and lived passionately—not merely watched from the pews. Most of all, to stay fresh and alive, spirit­uality must be continually de-dogmatized. Albert Einstein got it right when he cautioned us: “The important thing is not to stop questioning.”
The miracles and magic I experienced over the course of my life have shown me that Truth can come in almost any form and be found nearly everywhere. Wisdom is not the exclusive purview of any one religion, race, culture, group, or sect. It is a living legacy shared by eve
