COMMENTARY:
AFTERLIFE PHYSICS
In order to understand where the afterlife is, and how
we can contact it, many afterlife teachers talk to us
about the speed of their "vibrations". They
tell us that their world is just as solid as ours, and
in the same space as ours. The only difference is that
it is vibrating at a faster and finer level. The great
teacher, Silver Birch, explains that in order for communication
to take place, "either you must raise your slower
vibrations (the speed of the swirling of the atoms),
or we must lower our quicker vibrations".
So
how do we raise our vibrations in order to make contact?
Every culture in the world has developed what Stan Grof
called "technologies
of the sacred" to induce non-ordinary states
of consciousness. Some of these include prayer, meditation,
fasting, sleep deprivation, instrumental music, chanting,
dancing, solitude in nature etc. The aim, in every case,
is to still the conscious mind.
SILVER BIRCH ON THE CONTACT PROCESS
"To make contact with your world, engrossed and
encased in matter as it is, one of two things has to
happen. Either you must raise your slower vibrations
(the speed of the swirling of the atoms), or we must
lower our quicker vibrations ... To
speak through this medium I have to slow down my vibrations
- the speed of my atoms. When I return to the spheres,
discarding the personality through which I manifest,
I have to accelerate my vibration to manifest some of
the consciousness which belongs to a higher state of
being and activity. It is caused by vibration. It is
the only word which succinctly explains our activity.
It is interesting to note that so many scientists, who
for years have turned deaf ears and blind eyes to the
whole realm of spiritual activity, now, in their examination
of a world of matter, are beginning to realise that
its secrets are to be discovered in vibrations - the
speed of the swirling of each individual's atoms."
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

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."

DRAMATISATION OF NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCE
WHAT DOES IT FEEL LIKE
TO DIE? Dr. PMH
Atwater knows - she died three times. She writes: "There
is no pain at the moment of death. Only peaceful silence.
. . calm. . . quiet. But you still exist. It is easy
not to breathe. In fact, it is easier, more comfortable,
and infinitely more natural not to breathe than to breathe.
The biggest surprise for most people in dying is to
realize that dying does not end life. Whether darkness
or light comes next, or some kind of event, be it positive,
negative, or somewhere in-between, expected or unexpected,
the biggest surprise of all is to realize you are still
you. You can still think, you can still remember, you
can still see, hear, move, reason, wonder, feel, question

THE SCOLE EXPERIMENT: MOST IMPORTANT
EVIDENCE FOR THE EXISTENCE OF THE AFTERLIFE
The Scole Experiment was a recent example of physical
mediumship witnessed by a number of people of the highest
credibility. Scole is a village in Norfolk, England.
These experiments were conducted in England in the home
of Robin and Sandra Foy and also in the United States,
Ireland and in Spain over a period of six years. There
were five hundred sittings from December 1992 to November
1998. Read more...

MESSAGES FROM THE AFTERLIFE
When Mark Ireland's son, Brandon, died, Mark was forced
to embrace his family background as the son of a famous
psychic medium.
SEVERAL POINTS THE ASTRAL REALM
WANTS US TO KNOWCyrus
Kirkpatrick is a young afterlife
author and out-of-body explorer who writes a wonderful
blog. This is his recent post:
"The astral realm is a loose terminology
for any higher-density, parallel dimension that individual
souls (our actual personalities, you and me) appear
after death. It’s extremely hard for many to wrap
their minds around the idea that their lives continue
to the extent of living in houses, potentially having
jobs and hobbies. To be
able to accept this possibility, you have to first consider
the next point. They’re in a Solid Environment."

MEDIUM CHRIS STILLAR DOES A READING
FOR A SKEPTIC Director
of Metaphysics Research,
Donna Smith-Moncrieffe, shares video footage from her
'non-believer's experiments' conducted as part of her
research with mental mediums. Eighty-eight sitters and
10 mediums participated in the larger study.
DO WE LOSE OUR
INDIVIDUALITY IN THE HIGHER REALMS? "As
we progress into those high
realms, we shall not lose our individuality in supposed
etheric clouds and become lost to everyone except the
dwellers therein. We shall ever continue to be ourselves,
our TRUE selves; refined, to be sure, more etherealised,
but still, YOU will be YOU, and I shall be I no one
else. You and I will recognise each other, just as you
will recognise all your friends, as they will recognise
you ... our wisdom and knowledge will also increase...."
Mons. Hugh Benson through the mediumship of Anthony
Borgia.
CONVERSATIONS WITH HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS
David and Jean Ingman, a retired
professional couple from England, now living in Sydney,
have had many experiences in different areas of mediumship
and spiritual communication. David has been receiving
Seth-style information from an unnamed higher consciousness
about the meaning and purpose of life, the nature of
reality, who and what we are, how we got here, our purpose,
and where we are going from here. The material contained
on their site is designed to expand your mind, to expand
your awareness, to help you to think and speak from
your higher consciousness, a more knowing part of you.

REMOTE VIEWING
Russell Targ writes: "Here are
just a few (now declassified) examples of the astonishing
psi ability that
remote viewers at SRI demonstrated in the government
program. Most of the information from the program is
still classified, but these are a few good indications
of the results possible. Shown on each page is the sketch
made by the psychic, and then below that, a photograph
of the actual target." See
examples... The real question is what are the implications
of this ability for who we are.
BUDDHA AT THE GAS PUMP: INTERVIEWS WITH ORDINARY PEOPLE
WHO ARE AWAKENING SPIRITUALLY
"One night in 1997 Richard Schoeller thought he
was dying because he found himself surrounded by both
sets of deceased grandparents. They reassured him that
it wasn’t his time to join them in the afterlife
and that their visit was to help him understand that
he could now “see them.” Who could ignore
a visit like that? Richard had to learn more about what
had just happened, so he began taking classes and researching
the ability to communicate with those who have passed
into spirit. Richard is now an ordained Spiritualist
minister, Certified Medium, Commissioned Spiritualist
Healer." Access main

1) This is serious business. It is important
and changes everything. Art.
2) Great to listen to Keith Parson on
Afterlife books worth reading; He has knowledge on the
many books from the past. Thank you. Marion Dampier-Jeans
3) I'm spreading the word... I have mentioned and quoted
the back-cover words of your book in my
new edition book. Your book is my number one recommended
reading because it gives the evidence and links to it
so nicely. All the best. James McQuitty.
HIGHLY INSPIRED MUSIC: from
THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA one
of the most beautiful love songs ever written: SIERRA
BOGGESS' version of "WISHING YOU WERE SOMEHOW HERE
AGAIN" The presentation is visually magnificent,
musically the very best, voice - just like an angel
- just brilliant. Andrew Lloyd Webber claimed that Sierra
Boggess was his favourite for the role; besides being
an exquisite soprano she puts more emotion and passion
into the role than anyone else. Absolutely brilliant!!
Music that will penetrate your heart, soul, and mind!!
