COMMENTARY:
DEALING WITH 'CLOSED-MINDED SKEPTICS' What
I found most fascinating, and disturbing, over the last
27 years, is the inability of stubborn skeptics to understand
the clearly stated evidence for the afterlife.
My experience with the 'closed-minded skeptics' shows
that 'wisdom' - higher knowledge - is directly related
to a particular reasoning ability - not necessarily
related to intelligence.
To
attain "higher wisdom" there is the need to
remove deeply negatively entrenched prejudice. It seems
that some people - irrespective of level of intelligence
- are not able to go beyond their innate and learned prejudices.
Highly credible information from the afterlife tells us
that some people cross over with stubbornness that will
sometimes take hundreds of years (by earth's time) to
completely remove.
THE NEW SCIENTIFIC PARADIGM
Dr. Ervin Laszlow is one of the brightest scientific
minds on the planet. His numerous prizes and awards include
four honorary doctorates and four Nobel Peace Prize nominations.
He is the author of 69 books and over 400 articles and
research papers. Here he talks about the way in which
reductionist Newtonian science is being challenged and
a new paradigm of interconnection is emerging. He says
we do not live in a random world and God is in everything.
THE SCIENTIFIC AND MEDICAL NETWORK
In 1973 two scientists started the SMN because they felt
that the materialistic views of science were too limited.
Today it is a worldwide professional community and membership
organization for open-minded, rigorous and evidence-based
enquiry into themes bridging science, spirituality and
consciousness. It promotes a cultural shift in our understanding
of reality. Learn

LOVE LIVES ON: Dr. MATTHEW MACKAY
When his son, Jordan,
was murdered, Dr. MacKay was an agnostic. A clinical psychologist
and professor, he had readJourney
of Souls by Michael Newton and learned about
his hypnotic method for exploring the “life between
lives.” He also knew about Alan Botkin’s “Induced
After Death Communication” (IADC). So he was
in a better position than many to begin a search to contact
his son. Read
Michael Tymn's interview.
THESE DAYS PEOPLE ARE COMING BACK
FROM DEATH IN RECORD NUMBERS
Judy Bachrach conducted numerous interviews with medical
personnel in the United States, the United Kingdom and
the Netherlands. She interviewed cardiologists, emergency
room physicians, brain surgeons, psychiatrists, neuropsychiatrists,
hospital nurses and neurologists, all of whom came to
the same conclusion: For many, death does not signal the
end of thought or the end of experience." Read

NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE SPARKS
A PASSION FOR LEARNING
Cherie Sutherland had a near death experience when she
was a young mother. It left a lasting impression on
her and prompted her to go to university and complete
a doctorate in Sociology. She went on to write a number
of books about near-death experiences, reincarnation
and angels. This footage was filmed for Peter Ramster
for a documentary about near death experiences to show
the life changing effect such experiences can have.
LIVE EACH DAY AS IF IT WAS THE ONLY ONE WE HAD
“It's only when we truly know and understand
that we have a limited time on earth -- and that we have
no way of knowing when our time is up -- that we will
begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it was the
only one we had.” Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
IS SPIRITUALISM 'SCIENTIFIC'? Afterlife historian,
Arthur Findlay, in
The Unfolding Universe p. 327writes:
"This then is the religion of Spiritualism, born
of the knowledge that we do not die but are forever
destined to progress and develop, just as the divine
mind of the universe, of which we are part, is progressing
and developing. This religion requires no churches,
priests, creeds, dogmas or doctrines. It has no exclusiveness,
as it embraces the entire human race. It is not in conflict
with science, as it is science. Is is not in conflict
with philosophy because it is philosophy. It is not
in conflict with mysticism, because it is mysticism.
Science and natural religion are one, and always have
been one, as they likewise stand for truth and always
have stood for truth based on experience."
GREAT SCIENTISTS' QUOTES ON THE PARANORMAL AND THE AFTERLIFE Professor Jessica Utts and Nobel Laureate
Dr. Brian Josephson:
"These phenomena seem mysterious, but no more mysterious
perhaps than strange phenomena of the past which science
has now happily incorporated within its scope." (1996).
Sir Oliver Lodge "We
have to do no violence to our physical conceptions if
we admit the fact of survival. Life and mind never were
functions of the material body, they only displayed themselves
by means of the material organism."
DO WE LOSE THE SPIRITUAL KNOWLEDGE WE GAINED, EVEN IN
THE AFTERLIFE? No, we
do not. We get it directly from
the afterlife. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle told me, and other
sitters, this himself when he materialized at one of medium
David Thompson's sessions. He answered my specific question
about the matter, saying that once we attain a certain
spiritual level, we do not lose what we have gained.
YOUNG MEDIUM STUNS SKEPTICAL NEWS ANCHORS Boston
medium, Matthew Fraser, is only 26. But he has been a
medium since the age of 4, having inherited the gift from
his mother and grandmother. He already has an impressive
track record of media appearances and demonstrations.
THE CONTROVERSY OF WIKIPEDIA On several
occasions over the last few years we have warned readers
that militant skeptics are distorting all wikipedia articles
on the afterlife, the paranormal and, especially, alternative
medicine. Rupert
Sheldrake has written about this as has
Craig Weiler.
Consumer advocate, Tim Bolen, claims that it is time to
take Wikipedia to court to force its co-founder, Jimmy
Wales, to reveal the source of its multi-million dollar
funding which, he claims, is the pharmaceutical industry.
Bolen writes: "The real money behind Wikipedia, I
think, is the HUGE anonymous “contributions”
that Jimmy never mentions. And, I think, Jimmy is completely
controlled by those contributors." Read

ROBERTA GRIMES: LOVE AND THE AFTERLIFERoberta
Grimes talks about her research into the experience
of dying, the afterlife, our purpose on Earth, and the
importance of love.
THE AKASHIC RECORDS For
many years psychics and mystics have conceived of a
universal filing system which records every thought,
word and action, both past present and future. The records
have been referred to by different names including 'the
Cosmic Mind', 'the Universal Mind',
'the collective unconscious', or 'the collective subconscious'.
Gifted psychic Edgar
Cayce claimed to access the akashic records to to
get information on people's past and present, the history
and future of the world. Dr.
Ervin Laszlow (see item above) claims that recent
discoveries in vacuum physics show that this Akashic
Field is real and has its equivalent in science’s
zero-point field that underlies space itself. It holds
the record of all that has happened on Earth and in
the cosmos and relates it to all that is yet to happen.

mediumship of the 20th century. Besides his ability to
create in deep trance relieve automatic writings, dozens
of pages about social, philosophical or contemporary topics
in to him 29 unknown languages like Chinese, Aramaic,
German, French, fully unknown ones, he mostly became famous
for his DAYLIGHT MATERIALIZATIONS, witnessed by hundreds
of honorary witnesses, academics, politicians and aristocrats.
The then shot photographs were hard to find and hidden
in portuguese or historical periodicals until the FELIX
CIRCLE website published them all in two articles with
the originally translated captions.
