Does "it" refer to "world"?

" we are in contact with it..."

It is possible that we may be on the threshold of a new science, which will, by another method of approach, confirm us in the assurance of a world behind and beyond the world we see, and of something within us by which we are in contact with it.

"The History of Spiritualism," by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

@solesoul,
Probably means “world “ but some people may think that it refers back to the “new science.“
