Today my fiancé asked me how humans could ever get organized enough to fix the many colossal problems in the world. She said that even if substantially sized groups banded together to work on worthy humanitarian causes, she probably wouldn’t trust them. I feel that.
Groups of humans can so quickly become cultish, power-hungry, vapid, and out of touch. An astounding number of the most seemingly heart-centered nonprofits are run by corrupt CEOs who have the same defunct moral compasses as their corporate counterparts. Numerous spiritual collectives swiftly transform into vampiric MLMs, demoralizing pyramid schemes, or divisive churches and cults. Even well-intended creative organizations will cave to the seductive call of late-stage capitalism and sell out their original target mission for a fat check or fast cash.
She followed up her observation with, “So how will we ever get out of this mess we’re in?”
After some marination, a thought emerged:
I don’t think we’re going to get out of this mess and through these discordant evolutionary growing pains via groups, gurus, or mass organizations. At least not at first.
That’s not to say I don’t believe in the power of protests, activist movements, and covens. They are badass and necessary. But I think the central work of this astrological moment is overwhelmingly and surprisingly, solo. For eons, we have traversed the cycles of corruption, wars, and revolution. My intuition (and the ancestors I work with) tell me this time is different.
It feels like there’s some supremely witchy shit on the horizon.
Even within the cacophony of noise in central LA (where I currently live), I can feel it.
The Aquarian Age and the resurgence of feminine power call for surrender, wisdom, and radical interior investigation. That means, this time, the revolution must come from within.
This isn’t a new concept. During the Occupy Wall Street and Women’s March movements, a similar idea was frequently thrown around. And before them, it was popular amidst the waves of activism in the 1960s and 1970s. Both Gandhi’s and Martin Luther King’s movements were driven by the core of this ideology, radical non-violence. Non-violence is a beautiful concept and can be understood intellectually with ease. But to live non-violently in a consistent manner requires cultivated wisdom, empathy, inner compassion, and connectedness. This is far more difficult to achieve and it stems from prioritizing internal change and personal revolution over external change and global revolution.
That much-needed wisdom and reflection come only from that interior investigation. It comes from meditation, communion with nature, shamanic journeys, and/or other healing practices that can trigger the memories of our unfathomable connection to each other, the divine feminine, the sacred Earth and Star spirits, and the original breath of our earliest existence.
The Aquarian Age has valuable messages for us, perhaps the most important among them being the death of guru outside of oneself. This is the point in our collective growth when the bravest among us will let go of the rigidity and pressure of our very civilization and embark on billions of vision quests. One by one.
So what does this have to do with Samhain (more commonly known as Halloween)? As the veil between realms gets thinner, as it does every year at this time, we can use this energetic opening to spur our own vision quests. We can celebrate this ancient Celtic festival by turning off our phones, sitting in dark, liminal spaces, and listening for answers from within. There are unseen spirits, guides, and entities all around us, waiting and willing to aid in our spiritual development. Especially during Scorpio season.
Samhain is the Witch’s new year. It marks the end of the harvest season and the beginning of the darkest part of the year, in the northern hemisphere. It is an intrinsically introverted and liminal time, which makes this solo interior work more accessible. The lessons gleaned from deep, meaningful shadow-work, although immensely uncomfortable, can be absorbed more quickly at this time. Because our spirits and ancestors have more access to us, they can powerfully aid in unraveling old and stubborn karmic knots, if we are open and allow.
Identifying as a Witch and practicing the Craft have different meanings for different people. For me being a witch is about three central aspects (I think of them as sides to a sacred triangle):
The first is Bravery (Maiden):
Bravery to face the inner layers of the self.
Bravery to admit both our deepest, ugliest folly and internal power that’s beyond measure.
Bravery to rise against the waves of patriarchy by invoking the Divine Feminine.
Bravery to be resilient in the face of the often excruciating contrast of this binary planet.
Bravery to stay awake enough to refocus on the Magick of love, laughter and compassion.
Bravery to remember the reality that exists beneath all realities.
The second is Power (Mother):
Power in knowing that we co-create uncountable realities, thousands of times each day.
Power in service of the receptive Feminine Spirit that binds us all.
Power in a lineage that we both revere and make manifest, simultaneously.
Power in the sacred act of original creativity (birth).
The third is Wisdom (Crone):
Wisdom of radical compassion especially projected to those who seem not to deserve it.
Wisdom of the ancestors, spirits and entities of all realms, both seen and unseen.
Wisdom of cultivated humility when bestowed with Magickal power.
Wisdom of the elements and cosmos in ritual workings.
Wisdom of Great Grandmother Spirit.
Final Thoughts
So, when October comes around each year, I am reminded of the sacred responsibility of this path. This is our time to journey within and connect with the deepest, truest versions of our sacred selves. If throughout your days you often feel disconnected from a happier, livelier version of yourself, use the power of Samhain to remember who you are.
I am reminded that for us to collectively evolve, I must be brave, powerful and wise enough to look within and listen closely. Only there, in the quiet, innermost crevices of our being, can we conjure the necessary spells to break our subconscious bonds to the outdated, destructive patriarchal beast.
Make no mistake, to be a Witch is to be a warrior.
But, unlike the traditional warriors of the past, we know the real battle is fought within.
On Samhain, when the power is high, and the veil is thin,So Mote It Be.
The R101 airship disaster of 1930 is not just a story of aviation gone wrong, but a tale with overtones of the supernatural. Beyond the technical failures and human errors, the involvement of renowned Irish medium Eileen Garrett and esteemed paranormal investigator Harry Price has given the tragedy an aura of mystery. As early as 1926, Garrett, who had displayed psychic abilities from a young age, began having vivid premonitions of an airship disaster over London, warning of fire, smoke, and an impending tragedy. Her warnings, however, went unheeded by aviation authorities. This article delves into the eerie events leading up to the crash, the séances that followed, and the lingering spirits that continue to interest paranormal researchers.
The British Airship Industry: A Tale of Two Airships
The R100, completed first by a private company, Vickers, was relatively successful. It embarked on a maiden voyage to Canada in 1930, demonstrating a degree of reliability and operational success. The R100's construction emphasized private innovation and was led by a team including the notable Barnes Wallis, later famous for his role in designing the bouncing bomb during World War II. The R100's successful transatlantic flight showcased the potential of airships for long-distance travel and raised expectations for their future use.
In contrast, the R101 was primarily a government-funded venture, representing a significant investment in state-sponsored engineering. This airship was intended to surpass the R100 in size and capability, symbolizing British technological prowess. However, the R101 project was marred by political pressure, design compromises, and rushed timelines. The government's involvement aimed to demonstrate national strength and innovation, but it ultimately highlighted the pitfalls of bureaucratic interference in technical endeavors.
The R101 Airship: A Vision of Grandeur Turned Tragic
The R101 was envisioned as an ambitious project that would showcase British engineering prowess and help connect the vast British Empire through luxurious air travel. Stretching over 730 feet and filled with more than 5 million cubic feet of flammable hydrogen gas, the enormous airship promised to revolutionize long-distance transportation with unparalleled speed and comfort.
However, the development of the R101 was beset with challenges from the start. Its design incorporated diesel engines instead of petrol to reduce fire risks, but this made the engines heavier, requiring the addition of an extra central segment to increase hydrogen lift capacity. This compromise was one of many unsatisfactory solutions adopted during the airship's construction.
Other issues like insufficient engine power, faulty elevator controls, and miscalculated weight loads also raised concerns among engineers about the R101's airworthiness. Despite technical advisories to delay the maiden flight until these problems could be properly addressed, there was immense political pressure from officials like Lord Thomson, the Secretary of State for Air, to launch on schedule.
Anxious to showcase Britain's airship ambitions, Thomson insisted the R101 depart for India as planned on 4 October 1930, with him aboard as a passenger. This pivotal decision to prematurely launch the flawed airship, against expert recommendations, set the stage for the upcoming catastrophe over France less than 24 hours later.
So while the R101 embodied the grand visions of a globe-spanning British airship fleet, its rush to operation despite clear design faults and inadequate testing foreshadowed the tragedy that would unfold on its very first voyage.
The Crash Site: A Scene of Tragedy
The R101's ill-fated journey came to a tragic end in the early hours of 5 October 1930, when the airship crashed near the village of Allonne, close to Beauvais in northern France. The airship encountered severe weather, and combined with its inherent design flaws, this led to its catastrophic descent. Upon crashing, the R101 burst into flames, fuelled by the vast quantities of hydrogen it carried. Of the 54 people on board, only six survived the inferno. The crash site became a scene of horror and tragedy, with debris scattered over a wide area and the remains of the airship smoldering amidst the French countryside.
Eileen Garrett: The Medium with Premonitions
Eileen Garrett, born in 1893 in Ireland, was a renowned medium known for her psychic abilities such as seeing auras, out-of-body experiences, and communicating with spiritual entities she called "controls" named Uvani and Abdul Latif. Despite a difficult childhood marked by family tragedies and questions about her sanity, Garrett persisted in exploring her gifts.
Prior to the R101 crash, Garrett experienced vivid premonitions warning of the impending tragedy on three separate occasions in 1926, 1928, and 1929. Although her warnings about an airship disaster over central London were not heeded at the time, they gained significance in the aftermath of the horrific event.
Harry Price's Initial Involvement
Two days after the devastating R101 crash, renowned paranormal investigator Harry Price organised a séance with the specific aim of attempting to contact the spirit of the recently deceased Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, creator of Sherlock Holmes. Price had arranged this séance at the National Laboratory of Psychical Research in London with Eileen Garrett as the medium, ostensibly to allow journalists to interview Conan Doyle's spirit.
However, the séance took an entirely unexpected turn when Garrett instead channelled the voice of Flight Lieutenant H. Carmichael Irwin, one of the R101's crew members who perished in the disaster. Unbeknownst to Garrett, her trance state gave way to Irwin's spirit rather than Conan Doyle's, and the séance was overtaken by astonishingly specific technical details about the issues that had brought down the airship.
The voice channelled through Garrett provided an array of startlingly accurate information, including details about the R101's insufficient engine capacity, elevator malfunctions, incorrect weight calculations, and even a reference to the ship nearly "scraping the roofs at Achy" a tiny hamlet close to the crash site unlikely to be known to the medium. For 40 minutes, Irwin's spirit seemed to communicate a wealth of insider knowledge about the disaster through Garrett.
Price, a famously skeptical investigator, meticulously documented the session, realizing the profound implications if this truly represented communication from one of the victims. The technical accuracy of the information imparted appeared to be beyond Garrett's conscious knowledge at the time.
The Séances and Supernatural Encounters
Following the initial séance, Garrett continued to conduct sessions where she claimed to communicate with the spirits of the R101 victims, often in the very Cardington hangar in Bedfordshire where the doomed airship was built. These séances were marked by a pervasive sense of dread and encounters with restless spirits expressing frustration and sorrow, and also asking to be left alone, suggesting the souls of the lost crew and passengers were not at peace.
Harry Price's Continued Investigation
Price, known for his rigorous approach, was initially skeptical but became impressed by the startling technical accuracy of Garrett's mediumship. Experts like John Charlton from the Royal Airship Works concluded it seemed Captain Irwin himself had communicated through Garrett, providing around 40 references indicating confidential, first-hand knowledge of the R101 that she could not have known.
The Parapsychological Studies
Garrett's abilities garnered significant interest from the scientific community. In the 1950s, she helped establish the Parapsychology Foundation in New York, which conducted extensive research into her mediumship and psychic phenomena. In 1957, Jungian psychologist Dr. Ira Progoff analyzed Garrett's trance sessions and offered an interpretation that her "spirit controls" were not separate entities, but rather "symbolic forms of dramatization" representing deep "principles of life." However, for witnesses privy to the specificity of her communications, a spiritual explanation remained plausible.
Legacy and Ongoing Mysteries
The R101 disaster had a profound impact on British airship development, prompting critical safety reforms. The alleged supernatural accounts raised deeper questions about life after death and spirit communication. While some dismissed these stories as superstition, others believed that the voices from beyond the grave provided valuable insights into the tragedy.
Researchers like Price meticulously documented Garrett's mediumship, lending credibility to her abilities. The lasting allure of the R101's haunting tales ensures the story continues to captivate those seeking answers about the disaster's causes and the possibility of an afterlife.
Conclusion
The R101 disaster is more than a historical footnote; it's a tale of human ambition, technical shortcomings, and inexplicable voices from the other side. As we remember the crew and passengers lost, we're reminded that some mysteries defy rational explanations. The haunting of the R101 serves as a powerful testament to the enduring power of the human spirit and curiosity about the great unknowns that lie beyond our perception.
Whether one believes in the supernatural or not, the story of the R101 and the prophetic visions and mediumistic communications surrounding it continue to captivate and mystify. The voices and premonitions associated with the disaster have secured its place not just in aviation history, but in the annals of the paranormal, ensuring that its legacy lives on, both in tangible fact and the realm of the inexplicable.

The following passages have been transcribed from the second half of Professor Robert Temple’s interview with Heather Ensworth PhD about his revolutionary book A New Science of Heaven. Everyone else, seatbelts on and prepare to spark your imagination like never before. This is plasma physics part 2.
Will the plasma clouds intervene to save us?
Robert: We are always in such a mess and are a genocidal species, a psychopathic species because we spend all our time killing each other, pointlessly, frankly. We are obsessed with greed and silly things like fame…and all these people who are super rich become obsessed with making more money. If you’ve got a few hundred million dollars, why continue to earn money? It’s a mess.
The reason why the clouds obviously don’t intervene to save us from these catastrophes which we continually inflict upon ourselves, like the first world war, is because we are an experiment. If you interfere with an experiment, it ceases to be an experiment. If the day comes that they interfere, then it ceases to be an experiment. If things get to the absolute total crisis point, I guess they would have to intervene because there would be no point in having an experiment anymore if billions of people died and everything was really coming to an end. I presume they would intervene at that stage.
If you were able to return to earth again, would you do it?
Robert: Don’t forget that if billions of people die, it doesn’t mean they cease to exist. You are still left with billions of bio plasma beings. What are you going to do with them? Where do they go? That brings us to the whole question of the other world – there is another world we go to when we leave our ‘smart overcoats’. And we stay there until we return. Not everybody has to return – you can graduate. But there are some people who, having graduated, choose not to go up to the more blissful regions and instead choose to keep working to help get the planet sorted. As an individual bio plasma being, you can do that because you are not one of the clouds.
If you come back, you go through all the aggro that we have here, where everybody tries to stop you from doing everything. Try to do anything good on this planet and somebody is bound to complain. We are using this difficult world to grow and there are those of us who want to become better and better people but can only do it here. In the plasma physics world, you can’t do that because you are static there.
An alternate view of the afterlife and ‘fallen’ people
Robert: When people leave this world, it’s like they have a barcode which is a read out of who they are and how good they are. It’s like a frequency. The higher frequencies are better people and you go straight to your level that matches that frequency. Automatically. So, nobody is judged before a tribunal and all that kind of thing. How could they handle billions of people otherwise? It must be supervised by the cloud, somehow. So, they have this system, which to a large extent, is automated…
Heather: To be on your own path of growth and evolution, you have to come back into this density in order to work through more of your process.
Robert: Yes, and it’s dangerous because you could slip. I’m sure that there are pretty highly evolved entities that have fallen, hence the fallen angel motif.
Heather: And the gnostic gospels, too.
Robert: A typical example of one known to everyone, in my opinion, is Napoleon. He was a brilliant person, a highly evolved entity, who fell. He tried conquering Europe, and guess what? 16 million people died because of his vanity. That’s what I call a fallen person…they keep popping up everywhere…megalomaniacs.
So, you can be doing very well and come back here and do even better and suddenly be tempted by fleshly things. You can suddenly decide that I am so clever that I want to become a billionaire. I am going to do it and I don’t care who gets hurt. Well, then you go down, down, down.
Why has science become so fragmented and held back?
Heather: It’s an extraordinary way to think about how information can be transferred throughout the universe through these webs of plasma.
Robert: The cosmic web is now recognised by astronomers because they can see it. It looks like a spider’s web. In my book, I show it side by side with a human brain because it looks the same. Basically, it’s an intelligent universe. The whole universe is conscious. Our sun and stars are entirely made of plasma and I believe they are all alive. They are connected by these filaments, which is where the electric universe theory comes in. But that’s requires a separate conversation…The vast clouds that you now see with the new telescopes are huge plasma clouds and they are giving birth within them to stars. These stars are nodes of a vast superconducting electric grid which we call the cosmic web.
Observational astronomers tend not to know anything about plasma because they don’t know what plasma really is or how it works. Science is too fragmented. Nobody knows what the guy in the next lab down the corridor is doing. Science is being held back because people trying to do the science in an open manner don’t have any access to the secret stuff…Much too much is being kept secret which shouldn’t be kept secret and the people who are keeping it secret are cutting their own throats because if they put more out into the public domain, they would get more feedback which would be useful for their secret stuff.
We have a capacity to directly influence our evolution
Heather: If nothing ever dies, if everything is held in this sea of consciousness in the plasma field, we can affect the evolution of consciousness of the planet. Rupert Sheldrake’s understanding of morphogenic fields by our own resonance...that what we draw to the earth by our own energy field...if we are coming more from the heart and moving into a higher level of consciousness, we are activating that energy on the planet.
Robert: I agree completely. Rupert, by the way, is a great friend of mine…he is a great force for the good...
Heather: If you follow that understanding, then we have a capacity to directly influence what’s happening with our evolution here on the planet. My sense from the astrological perspective is that we’re at a critical choice point here...these energies we are seeing around the globe, is the backlash to an increasing shift that we are capable of in terms of moving into a new state of evolution with our human consciousness…But it feels like, as you said, there is a larger struggle between good and evil, not just on the planet in terms of our earthly experiment but across the cosmos, which is extraordinary to think about.
The Anubis Cell and Sirius mystery
Robert: Absolutely – I agree with everything you said…I want to address an earlier question about communication across space. In the revised edition of The Sirius Mystery, which came out in 1998, which I expanded by 50%...I talked about the connection between the Sirius system and solar system and at the time, I didn’t know about all this plasma stuff. I can now see what I suggested has a sound, physical basis.
I suggested that Sirius and the solar system were connected in a cell of some kind. I called it the Anubis Cell because Sirius is the dog star and Anubis was the dog god. I now can see that from the galactic perspective, such a cell would be a dusty complex plasma cell with its own sheath and that within such a cell, a long range order takes place, and that you could have instantaneous communication between the star systems because they are in the same cell.
…Information could in principle, be instantaneously transmitted anywhere in the universe because the universe itself, although limitless, I’m sure…is also a dusty complex plasma.
We’ve got extraterrestrial life between us and the moon
Robert: Most of the attention has been given to L5 (Lagrange libration point) – which I think is the one called Metatron. But the thing is, what is the other one up to (L4 Lagrange libration point)? Is one the left brain, is one the right brain? Is one male, is one female? Are they married? Anything is possible. We don’t know. And I do believe there have been attempts from L5 to communicate with us. Some of that was in my book but was removed. But that’s another long story.
…All of our concepts of communicating with extraterrestrial life are inadequate. We are looking for little green men out there somewhere. We’ve got extraterrestrial life between us and the moon. We don’t need to look beyond that. We should be learning about the clouds…The fact is that don’t even know enough about our own planet, frankly, and we don’t know what the core of our earth is made of. It’s all speculation...
I have a chapter in my book called The Cold Sun in which I point out that our conventional notions of the sun are nonsense. Because, if it really had a fusion reaction going on in the centre, the sun would get hotter the closer you get to it. But the opposite is true. It gets colder…
There is no hydrogen bomb going off in the centre of the sun. That’s complete madness. This was an idea that was attested by the wonderful Sir Arthur Eddington in the 1920s and he did his best because it made sense then. But it no longer does. People have got to shake that off…Everybody admits that there’s something wrong but they won’t admit that they are wrong.
Discerning the truth instead of defending certain paradigms
Heather: We get so locked into our paradigms that we don’t want to... You are an independent researcher trying to discern what’s true rather than getting caught up in defending a certain paradigm which is unfortunately so much of what happens in academia…We have been speculating about these other intelligent beings in the universe and basically what you are saying is that they are all around us.
Robert: Yes, yes, absolutely. There are life forms of plasma that are invisible to us and we don’t suspect are there. Some people call them angels. It’s all happening and we are blind to most of it. Life is everywhere. And everything is life. The universe is life. It’s conscious life. It’s a life that feels…thinks…a life that imagines. And I think that imagining is the source of everything.
The clouds know the entire history of this planet
Heather: Would you say then, that the clouds not only are intelligent and have this phenomenal memory bank, but are conscious?
Robert: Oh yes, definitely! They will be conscious at least in an AI manner…they would be super intelligent… so intelligent than they would know more than probably all the people on earth put together if they combined all of their intelligence...They know who everybody is. They would be watching this, for instance, because they monitor everything and have the capacity to do that easily. They would have fantastic filtering and sorting systems – way beyond the key word thing that spy agencies use...
The systems of sorting out what is really interesting and needs attention will be perfected by the Kordylewski clouds because they are probably billions of years old. They know the entire history of this planet, they know the details of every animal – not just the people - and probably every plant and the entire geology of the planet. They would have witnessed its formation…they know the whole story of the earth and the earth is what they are monitoring.
End of Interview Transcript, Pt 2
Heavenly Highlights
The following passages from A New Science of Heaven include references to ancient religious texts.
“Now at last, science has caught up with mysticism and modern physicists are seriously suggesting that intelligent plasmas can exist after all.” ~Professor Robert Temple
Correcting inaccurate global climate models
Crucial new findings about ‘new particle formation’ are not taken into account in global climate models and existing climate models ‘underestimate both the magnitude of tropical atmospheric NRF (new particle formation) and the subsequent growth of new particles to CCN (cloud condensation nuclei) sizes.’
Important phenomenon related to the discovery of this new particle formation in the atmosphere has been missed because it is so difficult to detect by existing technology. As a result, NASA has set up a programme to try to obtain more detailed information about these new particles so that we can know how they affect both our climate models and our climate itself.
Is the ‘War in Heaven’ between good and bad plasmas?
The early third century AD ‘Nag Hammadi’ Christian Gnostic Apocryphon of John text insists that it was ‘not Noah alone’ but ‘also other men’ who went into a place and sheltered themselves within a ‘luminous cloud’. It also speaks of angels as ‘lights’ and that both good and bad entities reside in the ‘luminous clouds’.
If the Devil himself lives in a fiery plasma cloud, it is possible for both powers of Good and Evil to dwell in, or consist of, plasma clouds.
Key events in the New Testament such as the Transfiguration, where Jesus appeared radiant in glory and the Pentecost, also seem suggestive of plasmas.
The War in Heaven could therefore be a war between good and bad plasmas, and the extent to which they can recruit humans on their respective sides is assumed to have a bearing on how long the world will last before it reaches its ultimate climax when the final reckoning occurs. At that time, the ‘elect’ amongst humanity who have remained good despite all temptations, will rise up to the Kingdom of Light, and the Powers of Darkness will be annihilated.
Nikola Tesla saw tongues of living flame
Nikola Tesla wrote in his autobiography that:
In my boyhood I suffered from a peculiar affliction due to the appearance of images, often accompanied by strong flashes of light, which marred the sight of real objects and interfered with my thought and action…I was about 12 years old when I first succeeded in banishing an image from my vision by wilful effort but I never had control over the flashes of light to which I have referred. They were, perhaps, my strangest experience and explicable...In some instances, I have seen all the air around me filled with tongues of living flame...These luminous phenomena still manifest themselves from time to time, as when a new idea opening up possibilities strikes me...
Professor Temple interprets Tesla’s descriptions as appearing to be the visualisation and perception of his own plasma body. ‘Tongues of living flame’ surround us because that is what plasma is like – not heat producing flames but rather a ‘living flame’ with pulsations or waves within the flame.
The ‘Death Flash’ and ‘Life Flash’
It has been said that at the moment of death, a flash of light is emitted from the body and it applies to all organisms, not just people.
A light flash is also seen at conception, when a human egg is fertilized by a sperm, and has been captured on film. The flashes are caused by a wave of calcium ions going through the cell and calcium ion flow is a form of plasma, just as we have seen in the death waves.
Death flashes have not yet been captured on film but in 1987, Polish biophoton researcher, the late Professor Janusz Slawinski (1936-2016) published a summary of the many of the occurrences of the ‘death flash’, technically known as the ‘necrotic photon emission’. He concludes that the electromagnetic field produced by necrotic radiation, containing energy, internal structure and information, may permit the continuation of consciousness beyond the death of the body.
Bio plasma bodies do not ‘wear out’ but whether they have non-physical ways of undergoing any kind of disintegration, is not yet known. But it is likely that it would take the form of an impairment or degrading rather than a total catastrophic collapse.
Writes Temple:
‘This is clearly very important information. Considering how terrified most people are of dying, you would think that this information would be more widely circulated, if only to assuage people’s anxieties. But strangely, few people have heard about it. This is puzzling to me. I think it must be because we live in a world today where intellectuals, mainstream social opinion-formers and mass media all subscribe to a rigidly materialistic view of life and are intolerant of anyone who challenges this arid position in even the slightest way. It is time that humans were given a proper briefing on this ‘material world of spirit.’
My dearly departed father assured me in a dream that ‘there is no death’
Professor Temple’s reference to the ‘material world of spirit’ aligns with two profound dreams I experienced in the mid 1990s - fitting memories to share as I conclude this article.
I clearly recall standing in a peaceful space, surrounded by a gentle mist and feeling embraced by a comforting, loving energy. My father, Karl Summer, emerged from the mist and stood in front of me. He was as tall and strong as I remembered him to be, and looked as happy to see me as I did him. As I basked in a profound wave of sweet relief and comfort that permeated the deepest levels of my soul, my father extended his hand to me. Expecting to feel nothing but thin air, I reached out to hold it. Instead, I physically felt his hand and looked at him in blissful awe. ‘You’re not dead, are you dad.’ I said. He smiled and replied: ‘There is no death, Linda.’
A few nights later, my father appeared in my dream world once again. This time, he was in a mischievous, happy mood and the setting included an arc of coffins with open lids. Then he started jumping in and out of the coffins like a cheeky, athletic teenager. ‘See?’ he said. ‘There is no death.’ I couldn’t help but laugh along with him and embrace the notion that death really was an illusion and that coffins were mere ‘props’ used in our earthly life to farewell our loved ones in their ‘smart overcoats’. In hindsight, my father’s comedic ‘coffin dance’ was also his way of helping me heal from the deep trauma and grief that accompanied the viewing of his body laying dead in a coffin. I had to physically see my father to help me believe he was really dead and I am sorry I had to put my mother through an experience she wanted to avoid. My father’s death on Boxing Day, 1980, came as an momentous shock to all who knew and loved him. He was only 54 years old. But he left us with a precious cache of joyful, at times hilarious and eye-opening memories to carry in our hearts.
My wish for anyone grieving the loss of someone they love with all their heart, is to know that death is not the final curtain call. Far from it.
With the sad decline in mediumship development and overall standards of mediumship, the most important aspect is the proficiency of a development teacher. This all important aspect cannot be emphasized enough. Not all great mediums make good teachers. Not all good teachers are great mediums. It is not good enough to study aspects of mediumship, throw that together with a few years experience and decide that you are able to teach to a sufficient level. Having knowledge and being able to pass it on are not necessarily the same thing.
Mediumship Development Business
Training has become big business. From spirit's point of view it was never meant to be that way. The lyceum was originally a school that taught normal subjects but was highly spiritually orientated. It was a spiritualist school. The best teachers, of course, have many years experience but perform the same work involved in demonstrating to audiences, or private readings.
The teacher should have a direct link with the student and also be linked with their own guides, the students guides, and those who are communicating with the students to give evidence. A good tutor will also be able to see how the information is given by the communicator and received by the student, and how the student interprets it.
Everyone's mind works differently and in consequence, we have foibles, quirks and ways of weaving information together that is very personal. We have personal experiences and prejudices that color how we may put together this information. We can be trained to accept certain kinds of information; for example, some people may be good with names. This can be utilized by the guides and communicators. In this way of working, a student will have the tendency to remember and convey names accurately. We all have the “five senses” and the additional “sixth sense”. When we work all of these together, they are greatly enhanced.
A good tutor will have strong recognition of these senses and the intricate web of communication, not only within themselves but also of the student. Commonly in a development circle of ten people, I would communicate in the way described above and this would entail not just the physicality of the people, but their guides and their communicators. In total, there would be twenty to thirty people that would need to be watched and worked with.

Why A Development Circle Always Needs Protection
Guides also have to learn to be guides. Very often in circles, there are many in spirit who have a direct or indirect interest in the proceedings. Spirit time and space is quite different to ours. As an example, in a ten by ten room there can be more than twenty-thousand spirits collectively. It is the job of the tutor to scan and be aware of what is going on. This is a sore subject for many, but there are those in spirit who are negative and also trying to learn, but with a different agenda.
Within a circle, it is or should, be always protected. That does not stop negative entities outside the protected area from taking an interest. Protection is of the greatest importance. Some tutors and institutions that teach mediumship seem to have no belief in negative or injurious spirits. To me, it is beyond belief and against all common sense. Just look around at the different kinds of people in the world today. As a species we are all different, and some of course, are extremely violent. Why would those who transition to spirit suddenly become completely changed, dare I say it into an angel? What would be the Earth lessons if our experiences and bad intentions were transformed into nothingness; irrelevant? There would be no point at all in our experiences here. It would all amount to nothing.
We may understand that we have (close to) eight billion people here on Earth. There are so many uncountable in spirit. New souls are being created all the time. We have to understand that not everyone in spirit who makes contact has the best intentions and a good tutor will have knowledge and some experience in dealing with this kind of thing. To have experience is to have power, not the egotistical side of this but the understanding to bring light, to ask for protection, to bring out the best in all, whatever their gifts.
The Decline In Accurate Mediumship
However many may sit in a circle, it should always be an individual experience. Tutoring, and learning are not a “one cap fits all” situation. Sadly, some institutions do not adhere to this, which has given rise to the decline in good, accurate mediums. All is known in spirit; there is no time as we know it. In spirit, there is only a point when something is correct, will happen. A consequence of this is that that everything is known whether it is past, present or future.
Predictions In Mediumship
This brings up an interesting question. Predictions are somehow the domain of 'psychics'. Predictions are common and indeed asked for with certain types of readings; for example, Tarot. Why is this not acceptable, apparently, from mediums? The difference between psychics and mediums is that the information comes from different sources. With psychics (all mediums are psychic, not all psychics are mediums) it is an awareness and reading of the energies around and within a person, object, etc. With mediums information is given from spirit directly. It is actually quite different and because of the expanse of knowledge on every single subject and experience ever known, there is a lot of information that can be tapped into depending on personal interest and a combination of gift, and experience.
Consequently, I believe in prediction. Not just because it is a routine thing in all readings and demonstrations but because skeptics/cynics all believe that we 'cold read'. That of course is incorrect, but, can you ever cold read a future event? It is something that skeptics cannot ignore.
Progressing On Our Spiritual Path
There are far too many techniques to go through here, but it can all be taught. Many who begin to develop get predictions, sometimes not so nice. It is spirit's way of giving us personal proof and underlining the fact that anything is possible. To progress the world on a quiet, more positive and spiritual path we need knowledge of what can be achieved and understood. Once we begin to understand our true potential, we can make great changes.
Many people of a spiritual or religious nature believe in the other side of life. In fact, of the eight billion, there may be a billion who are atheist in some way and only a few million who are skeptic…a mere fraction. The proper tutoring of developing people will create a whole new world of awareness that so many have already experienced. It is much more common now to hear of genuine near death experiences, etc. People no longer hide for fear of ridicule. Billions are open to it, many have experienced it and the sense that this is all real, permeates. Full connection to spirit is our birthright;as is proper understanding and respect to gain a fuller understanding of it.
I have been privileged to be aware of spirit since the age of two. I am close now to sixty-two years of age and I am blessed to have close to sixty years of experience. I want to leave you with an interesting set of photos. I am with my sister in one of them. I was almost nine years old at the time. I was born in nineteen fifty-seven. I leave the rest up to you to figure out.
Many people tend to fear, shun or pointblank deny the reality of demonic, low frequency entities. As a former spiritual scaredy-cat turned unwitting advocate for a ‘better the devil you know’ approach to life, I understand how they feel. However, the more I learn about ‘other-worldly’ lower realm work performed by highly experienced spiritual warriors such as authentic shamans and other advanced healing practitioners, the stronger and more optimistic I feel about everything. Basic dark occult awareness has also given me a sense of having access to an ‘upper hand’ in battles between good and evil and useful tools to help me protect myself and keep my personal frequency safe and strong.
So it’s probably no coincidence that I recently connected with a courageous spirit releasement practitioner called Dawn. She commented on a video I posted about the hidden world of black magicians, and later said she nearly deleted it because it sounded so crazy - even to her. Fortunately, I understood where she was coming from primarily because of my shamanic studies with the highly respected and experienced Peruvian curandero (healer) don Oscar Miro-Quesada. He also enlightened many of his western academic peers about the reality of ‘daimonic’ dimensions at various universities and institutions in the USA.
After learning more about Dawn’s other-worldlyadventures and most intriguing line of work, she agreed to share an overview of her experience on PDN. There’s a saying that we aren’t given more than we can handle, and I have to say that I can’t think of many people who would take on such a task and survive to tell the story.
A Particularly Bothersome Entity
Image: Canva
As a spirit releasement practitioner for 15 years, I had been privy to a good many entities and situations. But all that training and experience couldn't have prepared me for the ultimate demonic encounter of my life.
I received a call from another practitioner who said he had a request from a client to remove a particularly bothersome entity. The client stated that others had tried to assist but backed off or had no effect. The haunting was still present and couldn't be removed.
So, I decided to give it a go. Other practitioners and mediums reported that the entity was a female, older and really stubborn. They also said she might be a witch that passed over because she had a small dog as a familiar.
I gleaned as much information from them as possible before taking a closer look, stumped as to why no one could remove the female entity along with her little ‘Toto’.
Face to Face With A Succubus
I accessed the client’s apartment building via remote viewing to see if I could find out what was going on and yep, there she was. Some had seen her as a most beautiful woman, highly seductive and persuasive, while others saw her as an old, old woman. When I first viewed her, she used both disguises on me but then I looked further and saw the shape shifter for what she was, a succubus - half human, half demon.
The practitioners were right. She was not budging. She had firmly planted herself in that spot and was not giving it up. I had no idea at the time that the client was involved in the military and being stalked. He also had ties to the music and porn industry. And I didn't know that succubi are drawn to these types of personalities or that victims are also highly mind controlled and abused from an early age. This is often what attracts the attention of these kinds of energy.
Why Few Practitioners Take on a Succubus
When I reached out to shamans, healers and other practitioners for advice on how to remove a succubus, the answers were, " you don't" and "don't get involved". They seemed either spooked or concerned, and didn't elaborate on their experiences. Having never encountered this type of demon before, I had nothing in my personal experience to either deny or confirm what they were saying.
I remote viewed again and confronted the succubus in the astral. We talked, and I thought we had come to an agreement. She would leave and not return. I told her that we would battle should she choose to renege on our agreement. But a short while later, she returned.
Ordinarily, the client tells me the entity is back and then I proceed to go in with guides and forcibly remove them without much trouble. This was totally different. My normal response is to maintain equilibrium and complete awareness as to my actions in the astral. But what happened next was a first, and the only time that I sensed she was there again without being alerted by the client. I went directly to the building in the astral, with a strong sense of the client being in abject danger. The client had already survived an attempt on their life by poisoning and I felt the absolute need to protect and act quickly or the client might end up dead. Or worse. The client risked losing all control and becoming the walking dead. Like the elites. Soul gone, sucked out and tortured, or used to feed others.
The Showdown To End All Showdowns

My sense of danger heightened as I entered the building and then something absolutely incredible happened without me influencing the events. I went into full on warrior/shaman mode and was thrust out of my body and into the position of an observer watching my now fully armored astral body going through the apartment in hunting mode.
I went straight through the apartment to the bedroom and there she was. She spotted me and hunkered down into a stalking mode with one hand on the floor. She looked at me with incredible hate, and hissed.
My last words to her were, “You were warned.” And she was dealt with.
When All Hell Breaks Loose - Literally
At the time, I had no idea that this succubus was a princess in her realm. When my actions were discovered by her family, all hell broke loose in my world. Nothing could have prepared me for what was to come. Ghosts, demons, hell hounds, black magic, UFOs - the works. I found myself under attack in both covert and not so covert ways. I won a lot of battles but took on heavy, heavy damage and eventually became so ill that I could no longer work or maintain my business. I spent two years in bed, almost dying twice. I was brought back to life by unseen helpers (my guides). At the time I was not grateful to them for their assistance. In fact, I was angry and thought how dare you bring me back to endure more of this hell!
Who would believe all of these things were happening because I unwittingly eliminated a demonic princess? Even I had a hard time wrapping my head around it and it was happening to me. I tried to enlist the help of other healers that understood the dynamics involved but they either couldn't or would go only so far before they got skittish. Some told me outright that it was too dangerous and I was on my own.
Advice To Potential Succubus Hunters
Today, however, I am grateful to my guides, as I found my way out of that dark hole of no return and came out stronger, faster, smarter and a whole lot wiser. Today, I wouldn't trade this experience for anything because of the lessons learned and the knowledge gained. I know myself and what I can accomplish and also know my limits. And these gifts are actually the only thing you can take with you when you leave this realm.
What advice would I give to another practitioner if they came to me and asked, how do you handle a succubus? My response would be, you don't. Should you decide to take it on, be ready to fight for your life in ways you never imagine. And if you live to tell the story, you will have gained information and wisdom beyond your wildest dreams. It is such a rare experience that most won't believe, while a few will envy you, having no idea how hard you had to fight or how much courage you had to summon. Should you decide to fight the good fight, get ready to touch the stars and truly understand who you are and what power you hold. And how incredibly loved you are by the universe.
Can the Love Frequency Play A Role In Removing Entities?
Image: Canva
After reading Dawn’s compelling story, I was reminded of how some military veterans use remote viewing to send love vibrations to the enemy to change their vibration until they are vulnerable enough to be taken down. I asked her if she has used the love frequency in her line of work:
Love does work if you are dealing with humans. What I do now is address the entities in the humans. It's a pretty cool trick and works like a charm. I see past the humans and leave them alone. I go for the puppet master.
The ones that we are currently working on are the main controllers. I realized that picking minions off people was not going to get the job done and these are the ones that have no plug-in for human emotions. But I was assigning emotions to them. It was almost a fatal mistake on my part. And I think that is why I was spared a couple of times.
Guides were like, really? Dawn, you’re not getting it. Use love of yourself to protect, have mercy for those in pain and compassion for those deserving. All others have made their choice.
And when I go into a "job" of clearing out tunnels or clearing the Vatican or clearing heavily charged negative places, I never pick a fight with the demons there. We go in and change the energy. We find the spell and its charm and undo it. If we are attacked, we defend, but not until. Usually the entities there leave because they have been forced by magic to serve. But anything that squats and hisses gets run over.
Demon Family Structures and Bloodlines
Newly aware that certain bloodline families on earth are related to specific demons, some even leaving an empty chair at the dinner table for their beloved Satan, Dawn’s reference to the family of the succubus prompted me to enquire if all demons have families:
Succubi do have a "family" structure and bloodlines. They are half human and half demon. They are born and bred for abilities in the structure. Sort of like the royal families. They are valued only for their gifts and how well they perform their duties. And they have a strict hierarchy.
Some succubi are cast out and roam around on their own if they are not up to par. Usually, those take on incubus (male demon) for protection and as a slave, but they are forbidden to breed. If they breed without "family" approval, the child demon is killed, if and when it's discovered. The succubus and incubus that created the "child" without permission, will also be destroyed. Before a child is conceived, many rituals are performed to assure good stock and ultimate control. Every once in a while, one slips through the cracks but renegades are are never spared if caught.
How Do You Ensure A Safe Return to 3D?
I have a lady that is my ground wire. When I go into the astral, sometimes I go so far out to gather info and work, that finding my way back would be very hard. Some go insane if they don't have a grounding person that knows their limits. We have been working together for about 25 years. She is the best! I can fly and know that I will be brought back into 3 D without too much trouble. Guides give us suggestions as to where to go to be most effective and if we get stumped, they offer solutions.
Letting people know about this realm is so important because so much information about this line of work has been destroyed. Thanks so much for taking the time and interest.
In closing, I would like to take the opportunity to thank all the unseen and unknown courageous spiritual warriors out there whose vital work continues to bring more truth and light to our world every day.

In his latest book The Wisdom Codes, eminent science-meets-spirit-pioneer Gregg Braden guides us to a sacred world of ancient, intuitively encoded words that can literally rewire our brain and heal our hearts.
“In their presence, we are changed.” writes Braden. “When we speak the words either out loud or silently to ourselves, something shifts within us and that something is where the power of words, chemistry and neurons converge in a beautiful way. These timeless codes are designed to bring us the greatest strength and the deepest healing, in the quickest way possible.”
Braden further explains that the relationship between the words we use and the way our brains function, has been recognised by our most ancient spiritual traditions for over 5000 years. The conscious application of specific word patterns that are recited in prayers, mantras, hymns and chants, provides inspiration, safety, comfort and healing - a powerful ally when life’s inevitable challenges come our way. This, in turn, paves the way to becoming skilled masters of our own destiny instead of unwitting, hapless victims of circumstance. Take your pick.
Word-Brain Relationship Origins
As a lifelong lover of language and more recently, the art of linguistics, I was particularly interested in Braden’s reference to renowned American Linguist Benjamin Lee Whorf. He discovered our word-brain relationship in the late 1930s, as a graduate level instructor of Native American linguistics. This experience provided unique insights about the Hopi people’s paradigm-altering use of language; how they used words to describe the present moment, but not to directly describe the past or future.
For example, when the Hopi refer to lightning, they describe the experience as lightning-ing, indicating that the lightning is a state of being; or the wave is waving. Whorf believed that these word structures were responsible for the harmonious way of the Hopi and their relationship with the cosmos. Having previously traveled to the Hopi Lands in north-eastern Arizona, I appreciated the deeper understanding as to why the word ‘Hopi’, (a shortened version of Hopituh Shi-nu-mu), translates into ‘peaceful people’.
Whorf’s discovery of how our words influenced the chemistry in our bodies and the way our neurons connected, naturally sent shock waves through the scientific community but also inspired ongoing biological and neuroscientific studies about the structure of language.
Thankfully, more recent studies have since confirmed Whorf’s theory that: “Words of our everyday language directly influence the way our brain “wires” itself when it comes to how we think and even what we are capable of thinking about.”
A single word has the power to influence the expression of genes that regulate physical and emotional stress. Andrew Newberg, M.D., neuroscientist and Mark Robert Waldman.
How We Empower Prayer Through Words
Braden’s mystical side-trip to a remote Tibetan monastery in the Himalayas made me feel like grabbing my backpack and heading for the mountains again. There he met with the abbot of the monastery, and asked: “When we see your prayers, what are you doing in your body? When we see you tone and chant mantras for fourteen to sixteen hours a day on the outside, what is happening to you on the inside?”
The abbot’s (condensed) translated reply reflected the discoveries reported in recent journals: “You have never seen our prayers because a prayer cannot be seen. What you have seen is what we do to create the feeling in our bodies. The feeling is the prayer and the words create the feeling.”
Put simply, words ignite the emotion that empowers our prayers. Allowing ourselves to fully embrace what our spoken words mean on the deepest possible level of awareness, triggers the neurological and biological responses that reflect the intent of the codes. This also mirrors the early translations of the biblical book of John (chapter 16, verse 24): “We are instructed to empower our prayers through the words that invite us to be surrounded by the feeling that our prayer is already answered. Ask without hidden motive and be surrounded by your answer. Be enveloped by what you desire so that your joy may be full.”
To say that the implications of the word-life relationship are profound, is almost an understatement.

Wisdom Codes Reflect Common Life Issues
Akin to a trusty, inner-world travel guide, Braden’s meticulously researched book offers a core group of 17 deftly decoded Wisdom Codes and two bonus codes. His chosen codes include ancient Sanskrit Vedas, the Mahabharata, Buddha teachings, The Lord’s Prayer, “lost” texts of the Judeo-Christian Bible and sacred mysteries of indigenous traditions.
Reflecting some of our most commonly faced issues in life, such as protection, fear, loss, strength and love, the codes also come with captivating accounts of their ancient origins and easy to follow instructions about how to apply them.
Wisdom Code Sneak Peak
To give you an idea of how the Wisdom Codes are presented, I have chosen to share part of Wisdom Code 7 - Bhagavad Gita, a remedy for Fear. The introduction to each code includes a breakdown of the code’s use and source, followed by a succinct overview of the code’s origins, instructions on how to use the code and a handy blank notes page. For example:
Bhagavad Gita
Wisdom Code 7: The soul is never created, nor does it ever die. The soul is without birth, eternal, immortal, and ageless. It is not destroyed when the body is destroyed.
Use: This code addresses the universal human fear of annihilation and the primal fear of nonexistence.
Source: Bhagavad Gita, chapter 2, verse 20
(Code origin)
How to Use Wisdom Code 7
The power of wisdom codes comes from their repetition and doing so in the affirmative. This imprints a code on the unconscious mind. When we create a heart/brain harmony, we open a ‘hotline’ to communicate directly with the subconscious.
From a place of heart/brain harmony, recite this code line by line, either silently in your mind out loud, until you sense a shift of fear. The key is to embrace this code with a focus of awareness, breath, and feeling in the heart rather than the mind:
The soul of never created, nor does it ever die
The soul is without birth, eternal, immortal, and ageless
It is not destroyed when the body is destroyed
Use Your Newfound Power of Words With Care
The Wisdom Codes is a truly unique, compelling and nourishing reference book that has earned a place in my highly competitive Spiritual Armour Kit. Just the tonic for navigating our way through this profoundly strange yet wondrous time in world history.
Note to self: Given that words form the framework for the unity or separation that we consequently experience, live consciously and choose words with great care. Always.
Do you find it strange that when people call for a mediumship reading, they expect that “spirits” are the fonts of all knowledge; that they can access all information, that your grandparents, however illiterate they may have been, suddenly have an expansive knowledge of your life and countless other things. (I went to school with those, who, because of continual “bunking off” or skipping school, never learned to read or write.)
Asking Questions Can Give Lots of Information Away
In a client's mind (not all, of course), knowledge can be infinitely tapped for all sorts of answers and by asking all kinds of questions, the client can give lots of information away. In some cases, this can effectively abort a reading. For those of us who are honest in our work, the last thing we need is to be fed with information. It is VERY frustrating.
Giving Misleading Information to Test a Medium
For the readers amongst us who do not mind being fed, I have to say this. People are not as stupid as you may think. There are those who will also give false information, despite needing proper, good and valuable information and confirmations.
Correcting a Client May Prove You're Genuine
I have occasionally had to contradict clients who deliberately "get facts wrong" in an attempt to see if I am genuine. I can assure you that in picking up or being given contradictory information from spirit, the client is often greatly relieved to know that whilst their mind may be at fault – who doesn't suffer at times? - spirit does not tend to make mistakes.
At the time of writing this article, I have been contacted by a possible client pointing out that “all of the mediums she has been to, ask questions”!

A Medium Should Only Question Those in Spirit
Anyone who knows me can verify that one of my pet hates is “mediums” asking questions. Any question a “medium” has, should only be addressed to the spirit or spirits communicating to get answers, not the client.
Incorrect Teaching?
It is, I'm afraid, endemic in the way people are taught mediumship. I can never understand why those who have been taught to ask the client questions, and their teachers, cannot see the wrong in this. People come for information and confirmation. How can you ever get a confirmation on a specific thing when the person you are asking has just asked you for the answer?
One Way to Damage Your Reputation
When questioning is noticed by the client or a group of clients, your reputation is damaged, more so after you have been found out. With that comes a loss of custom, and as any advertiser will tell you “word of mouth is the best form of advertising.” But give an excellent reading and they will probably tell few people – sometimes this is because having found a “gem,” people tend to want to keep it a secret. Having found someone who isn't, “they tell everybody”.
Whatever Their Supposed Standard, Don't Feed the Medium
I would urge everyone to have the mindset of “not giving information” and demand a more spiritual and evidence-based reading whether in public (at a demonstration) or private. Please disregard that a reader is “famous” and must know what they are doing, They, like myself, are “just a reader”- just a medium. We do not have Godlike powers and we should not be held in awe. We are just people exhibiting a gift that everyone has. We are not “special people” - we are those who have developed our gift a little more.
Do not be afraid to press a point with a medium. I urge you to do so. How can you be convinced of the communicator and/or the evidence that is given, if you do not? Your time is valuable. Do make the most of it.
A Medium Should Acknowledge a Person in an Audience Who is Known to Them
Without naming names (of course), I know of one well-known medium giving a demonstration and going to a friend. In an effort to “amaze” the crowd, this medium stated that she would give that person's mobile number, which they did. Amazing trick huh? The "trick" being the operative word. (Incidentally, if I am drawn to someone I know, I do make mention of it. When mediums regularly visit the same churches, some people do, of course, become familiar, but not friends.)

A Medium of Standing is Honest
Obviously, there is a huge amount of ego with this person. We have to ask ourselves why the medium's “accomplice” (because that's what they become), went along with this. When others find out that they are good friends, which they eventually do, what does that do to the medium's reputation? And so much worse, what does a “medium of that standing” do for the reputations of everyone else, especially those who are trying to honestly learn how to communicate with spirit?
We all need to question these things. If communication is real, and it is, why do so-called “mediums” play games?
There is no comfort in messages that leave us feeling duped. Those who work as mediums should know better.
Allen Kardec
Quote From Allan Kardec
I would like to quote from Allan Kardec's 'The Spirits' Book'. (The Netflix film of the same name is excellent.)
QUESTION: Will mediums who misuse their faculty suffer in consequence?
THE VERY CLEAR ANSWER FROM SPIRIT: "They will be punished doubly because they possess, beyond others, the means of enlightenment. He who, having the use of his eyes, fails to follow the right road, is judged otherwise than the blind man who falls into a ditch."
It could not be clearer.
Mislead and You Have to Pay for it
I have always stated that if I should mislead anyone, and there can be consequences for generations down the line for this, that I will personally have to make recompense when I pass over. That is absolutely clear from what was given to Allan Kardec, the Codifier of Spiritism/Spiritualism.
A Fundamental Spiritual Law
This is an unending and unbending spiritual rule. I personally think that it should be the first thing taught to every student who considers the path of mediumship. It is fundamental. Why don't organizations teach this? Perhaps, their integrity should be questioned?
Truth and Integrity
After all, if the tutoring is true, if integrity is intact, what is there to be afraid of? This spiritual rule is one that is written in stone.
Sceptics Have Heightened Interest in the Paranormal Considerably
Astoundingly, over the last 30 years, sceptics have heightened interest in the paranormal considerably, and consequently defeated themselves . Even their own polls show that they do not understand the fundamentals of the subject and their highly publicised goading has brought the subject to millions of people who are investigating the subject and finding real results. A most spectacular own goal in advertising the paranormal.
In the YouTube video 'Is There Life after Death? Fifty Years of Research at UVA' there is a spectacular account of the scientific advancements that have been made. The featured conference on the paranormal, which took place on February 22, 2017, has garnered close to 660,000 views. Google the heading above to watch.
Amazing Facts on Paranormal Subjects Such as Reincarnation
The UVA video goes into detail about some of the amazing facts on all kinds of subjects such as reincarnation and the fantastic details given, primarily by children, on their own past lives with some explicit details. NDE’s (Near Death Experiences) are also covered in this one hour special. Honorary speakers are Jim B Tucker, Bruce Greyson, Edward F Kelly J Kim Penberthy.
Discredited Book "Heaven is For Real"
At the end of the talk there is a short Question & Answer session. One especially for me, concerns the book and film “Heaven is For Real,” about a six-year old boy's NDE. The book has since been discredited because the now grown up boy has disputed his own version of the account in the book, stating that it was influenced by his father, a religious minister.
All Religions are Substantially Man Made
This is delicately handled, categorised as an NDE, but again balanced with what the child has since stated. It seems that whatever religion you are, yours is “the best,” right, and should not be disputed. All religions claim to the correct version, yet all religions are substantially man made, with man made flaws and also supported greatly by the political arena of the time.
No Real Religion Except Spirit
As you will become aware, after a certain level there is no “religion” - only “Spirit”. We come to see the real truth of the state of things when we, ourselves, pass into the world of spirit; a sense of familiarity and certainly a resemblance of earth at that initial level.
There are some excellent Physical mediums, Mental mediums and Direct voice mediums amongst others. The greatest Direct voice medium that ever lived, Mr Leslie Flint, made over six thousand recordings of those who came to speak at his seances. I would strongly advise to Google him and see the results of his work, as it is astounding to hear the “dead” themselves talk matter-of-factly about their own real experiences of passing, where they found themselves on their re-entry into spirit and the lives they now live there.
There are those who had passed fairly recently (in the last hundred years) and those who passed in the 1600's talking about their lives both on earth and in spirit.
A Few Thousand Sceptics Jumped On the Paranormal Bandwagon
The fact is that perhaps a few thousand sceptics jumped on the bandwagon and were paid handsomely to do so. They committed their lives to trying to convince as many people as possible this is all “hokum” in a very public manner, which has of course jeopardised their reputations, both now and certainly as far as history will recall.
Sceptic's mind set "Cant be, won't be, you're all wrong".
Sceptics Will be Confined to the Rubbish Bin of History
I have publicly stated for many years now that these sceptical 'scientists' will be only remembered, after being consigned to the “rubbish bin of scientific history” for their completely absurd views. There are very many examples of the stupefying absurdities stated by them and others through out history.
Modern-day sceptics will be recalled with as much mockery as the examples given below do now.
One of Two Sceptic Investigators Have Now Changed Sides
One or two of these paranormal investigators, having seen the light, pun intended, have now quite noticeably appeared to have changed sides in an effort to become “experts” on the subject, presumably after many years of investigation. To me at least, it does smack of rats leaving a sinking ship and desperate for some ego boosting recognition on some scientific basis.
I wonder how the modern day sceptics will fare! I often have amusing thoughts about how those like James Randy and Stephen Hawking will get on when confronted about the reality of passing. Stephen William Hawking CH CBE FRS FRSA, passed on the 14th of March, 2018. It will be interesting to see, faced with reality, whether Mr Hawking makes himself known.
A Sceptic Having Had an NDE Said, "It Was Nothingness"
I once had an interesting exchange with a hard-line sceptic who stated after an NDE that: “I have been there. There was nothingness, blackness, there is nothing after death.” I then pointed out to him that he had of course “been aware of nothingness”, strongly implying that if there was complete nothingness, he would not have known at all. Of course there was no reply to that simple statement.
A Strong Fixed Mind is Detrimental to the Afterlife Experience
Those who have strong minds and those who cling onto material things, will have great difficulties when they pass. In fact, as you will see from the video, one of the great things that happen with NDE’s is that people have a complete change of mind. They become more spiritual, with a lack of regard for material things. Those who completely believe there is “nothingness” may find, as I know that gentleman did, that for some time they will be correct.
Of course, many will only recognise them in their present guise of starting to champion the paranormal. They can claim of course that overwhelming “new evidence” has convinced them.
Sceptically Speaking, I Would Venture That This is More About Ego and Financial Recognition
All we have to do is look at their completely unsympathetic grasping and blatant ridiculing of the subject and those involved in it, to clearly see that if a leopard has apparently changed its spots, that there is a reason for it. Sceptically speaking, I would venture that this absolute about-turn is more about ego and financial recognition.
Historically, Closed-minded Sceptics Have Opposed Every Invention and Discovery and Have Made Fools of Themselves
• Sir William Preece, former chief engineer of Britain’s Post Office, will be remembered for making one of the most ‘idiotic’ comments in history about Edison’s inventions. Sir William stated that Edison’s lamp (parallel circuit) was a ‘completely idiotic idea’!
• Professors, including Professor Henry Morton who knew Edison, stated, immediately before Edison demonstrated the electric light globe: ‘On behalf of science … Edison’s experiments are a … fraud upon the public.’
‘Scientifically Impossible For Machines to Fly’
• The Scientific American, The New York Times, The New York Herald, the U.S. Army, academics — including Professor of Mathematics and Astronomy Simon Newcomb from John Hopkins University— and many other American scientists, all heaped derision, ridicule and denigration onto the Wright brothers claiming that it was: ‘scientifically impossible for machines to fly’!
• One of the leading scientists from the French Academy of Sciences stated that hypnosis is a fraud and stated after seeing a hypnotised subject with a four inch needle in the top of his arm: ‘This subject has been paid for not showing he’s in pain’.
• Another scientist from the French Academy of Sciences, after listening to a record made by Edison, stated: ‘… clearly that is a case of ventriloquism’!
• John Logie Baird, the inventor of television, was attacked by closed-minded sceptics who stated it was: "Absolute rubbish that television waves could produce a picture"!
