COMMENTARY: BELIEFS ARE EXTREMELY POWERFUL: All beliefs which have been with us for hundreds of years – tend to become part of the culture of a given society. Once beliefs are entrenched in culture, they are extremely hard to shift, even when beliefs are illogical, irrational or fundamentally inconsistent with science. History is littered with examples of people with strong personal religious and political beliefs who die for and kill for their beliefs-even when there was NO EVIDENCE the beliefs were valid. Beliefs can be supported by evidence or not. Environmentally programmed beliefs are extremely powerful in shaping how we perceive the world. Sociologists tell us that they can more or less predict what our beliefs will be given our age, place of birth, social class and religion. Many of our most deeply held convictions are purely accidents of geography. We have to learn how to be discriminating and to rise above early subjective conditioning and environmental programming. It is examining and questioning our beliefs and subjecting them to both intellectual and spiritual analysis that we continue to make progress, to refine and to evolve. Asking whether there is objective and repeatable evidence for your belief is essential.

'IN SEARCH OF THE DEAD: A SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATION OF EVIDENCE FOR LIFE AFTER DEATH' by Jeffrey Iverson: Although written in 1992 this book is still an excellent read.

" ... it is the riveting story of scientists and mystics joining together in a hunt for life after death. In a compelling and authoritative look at the evidence for the paranormal, Jeffery Iverson presents a carefully documented picture of the latest research in the field from around the world. His detailing of everything from Near Death Experiences to fascinating evidence of reincarnation in children to a new 'science of the mind' included extraordinary interviews with two Nobel laureates - physicist Brian Josephson and His Holiness, the Dalai Lama of Tibet - who share their insights on the natures of life, death and being ..."

Number 19. OBJECTION OVER-RULED! “You are peddling the afterlife material to make yourself money … that’s what it’s all about profit ….” (for objections over-ruled 1-17 … Read more …)

Victor: That's irrelevant, immaterial, unacceptable and inadmissible: That negative, sarcastic remark by those who showed how ignorant and stupid they are about what I have been doing these last 21 years consistently researching the afterlife. The record shows it cost me some at least a quarter of a million dollars to do my research, to purchase books, videos, audios, to organize electronic presentation of my work, to travel for afterlife research, to lecture - when I never allowed anyone to pay money for my public lectures. That kind of objection is immediately inadmissible for its unsubstantiated claim, for its highly negatively prejudicial assumption, for its vulgarity and for imputation of dishonesty in my afterlife research. I never made a cent from dissemination of the light on a global level.

ATTACHMENTS: A Most Interesting Afterlife Experience -
I resisted to putting up this item for nearly five years, but I am now going to release this very important information. I do accept it to be true and if anyone out there had similar experience, please email me about it, always in strictest confidence. Some years ago a very disturbed lady of around 38 years came for assistance. Briefly, this was her story:

" I’m married with one child of ten. But because I had problems with my husband I started to have sex with another man. All went well for a year, but this man died suddenly in an accident. He now wants to keep having sex with me from the afterlife! On a hot summer’s day when I slept naked, I felt pressure, not dissimilar to when he was alive, in my private parts – even penetration. I hear his name in my head whenever he gets very close. That terrifies me now. I need help urgently."

VICTOR'S COMMENT: I’ve had other instances where people say that they had felt pressure on their private parts – even women saying they actually feel penetration. On very close examination of their complaints, I am convinced they are not making it up. Theoretically, this is possible because when we cross over NOTHING changes in character. Some even deny they are dead and want to keep a particular habit going – even responding to sexual urges. Obviously this would be at the lower Astral realm which interpenetrates the earth realm. There is so much we have to know about the afterlife realms. I strongly advise you to learn as much as you can starting with WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DIE chapter 29

A WORD FROM A RATIONALIST (AN 'ATHEIST'): Michael Roll reminds us about the inconsistency between religion on one hand and being spiritual on the other hand. He points out that the Ten Commandments says 'Thou Shalt Not Kill' but Leviticus, 20.27 (New International Version of the Bible, 1979) says: "A man or woman who is a medium or a spiritualist among you must be put to death." Michael Roll comments: "The word of God my foot, it is obviously the word of evil religionists making sure the opposition are rubbed out."
On another matter, well done Michael - you have been influential in making many atheists accept the afterlife - a really good start! See Michael's webpage...


AN AFTERLIFE INTELLIGENCE SAYS HE MET JESUS IN THE AFTERLIFE DIMENSION: one of the most highly credible afterlife intelligences I know of - Silver Birch answers a very important and very popular question: have you seen Jesus in the afterlife? This was his answer: "Yes, I have, many times. I have told my friends here about it. Always when I withdraw from your world, which I do regularly, to attend the gathering where the Nazerine (Jesus) is always present. He is concerned with spreading these truths, of which he was an exemplar on earth, long since buried by those who claim to follow him ... These are being resurrected, accompanied by the demonstration of the same power of the spirit which operated in his day. Nothing causes greater sorrow to the Nazarene and to all the hierarchy than to see the way in which those who are ecclesiastical superiors are so abysmally ignorant of simple spiritual truths ... "


'THE PSYCHIC LIFE OF JESUS' book by Rev G Maurice Elliot. "Miracles are unclassified phenomena. They are not unnatural. They are not supernatural. They are supernormal. Yesterday's miracles are today's natural laws. The most natural laws are spiritual laws, for Man is spirit. Jesus came to reveal God to Man, and Man to himself. Jesus taught men that they could be as he, and do the works that he did, if only they would think as he thought, trust as he trusted, pray as he prayed. The Church is ascribing the miracles of Jesus to his Godhead has made a fatal mistake. She has divorced Jesus from the rest of Humanity. Had she ascribed his miracles to his perfect manhood she might then have conceived the possibility of men being able to do at least some of the works that he did. This book is a humble attempt to show that all the so-called miracles of Jesus were performed in complete accordance with law - sometimes natural law, sometimes psychical law, sometimes spiritual law, sometimes all three, but always according to law." ...

A CHRISTIAN MINISTER ADMITS HE DOES NOT BELIEVE IN 'GOD' OR THE 'AFTERLIFE'! Here is a confused Christian Bishop Richard Holloway who tries to justify his new agnostic beliefs, "...the world wide Anglican Church has made room for "happy clapping" evangelicals, bells-and-smells Catholics, women priests and in the United States openly gay clergy and even practitioners of other faiths." If he is honest and sincere, he must resign from being a priest - because fundamentally, a traditional Christian priest has to accept that Jesus was God, that there is accountability and an afterlife. Interesting, the moderate atheists moved towards accepting the afterlife - as I mentioned some weeks ago - and now this Christian Bishop goes the opposite side. Someone ought to remind him that this is an age of empiricism - and that the afterlife is an empirical certainty. Perhaps someone should send him my book about the afterlife! Read more....

MATERIALIZATION CORNER: GREAT NEWS: a documentary is being made about the afterlife. But one fantastic item is going to be an interview with William - David Thompson's (the materialization medium) own afterlife convener. This is the first time in history where a journalist from planet Earth will be interviewing an intelligence from the afterlife! If all goes well, it's going to be just sensational and quite revolutionary! I guarantee that William is an afterlife intelligence - after investigating David Thompson every week for some fifteen months. No doubt, the time has come that the whole world has to know the TRUTH about what really happens to you when you die. This documentary has the potential to effect a major believe afterlife shift on a global level.


RON GILKES NEW BOOK
Many of you will be familiar with Ron Gilkes story of how he was reunited with his daughter after her tragic suicide through physical medium Colin Fry and through other mediums and how he went on to create Jenny's Sanctuary, a centre for physical mediumship in the UK.

We are thrilled to hear that Ron has put some of his many experiences into a book.

A DOCTOR CONVINCED BY PHYSICAL MEDIUM
Estelle Roberts was for fifty years one of the leading mediums in England. Many of her direct voice seances were held in total darkness as voices of deceased loved ones spoke through a trumpet.

Skeptics attacked those who claimed that they had heard voices of their loved ones saying "Where's your evidence".

Below is the testimony of a doctor who sat with Estelle on many occasions. His reasons for believing the phenomena genuine are identical to Wendy's and my experiences with medium David Thompson.

" At some of the direct-voice circles various relatives manifested of whose existence, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the medium could not possibly have been aware, and in various little ways they have proved their identity to me....

My own belief in the actuality of the direct voice is founded not only on my own personal experiences, but on the cumulative evidence provided by the other sitters, often newcomers and strangers to everyone, including the medium, who come to the circle and with whom one afterwards compares notes. Their relatives and friends manifest, often giving evidence of their identity in the most remarkable and particular way.

The popular explanation of these occurrences, as being due to fraud on the part of the medium and credulity on the part of the sitters, is obviously nonsense. It would invoke the ability of the medium, or possible confederates, to see in the dark - to be able to act all sorts of characters and ventriloquize in the dark, and at the same time to have a most prodigious memory for names and facts which would have to be collected by a sort of super-detective agency, the expense of which would be only equaled by the amount of blackmail paid to people from whom the information was obtained.

Even this would fail to account for the phenomena, as many of the facts would be simply unobtainable.

WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE?: Idiocy pushed to its extreme by the uninformed? I do not debate the monkey – get the organ grinder whenever he gets enough courage to tell us who he is! There appears to be a low intelligence anti-materialization objector being used by some coward-in-hiding - who is totally out of his depth and who keeps on hammering and badgering about "where is the evidence Victor?" referring to David Thompson’s materializations. This anti-materialization objector who has never ever attended a David Thompson materialization and who appears to be very slow in understanding when we ALWAYS state:"We do NOT guarantee that ALL those who materialize are who they claim to be!" But, he challenges us about proving that those who come through are who they claim to be! We are professionals who investigated David Thompson on a weekly basis for fifteen months. We are university trained in the admissibility of evidence backed with practical experience in the Magistrates', District and the Supreme Courts; two of us investigating David have professional qualifications in Scientific Method, and two are also professional psychologists. I am informed that this objector is not educated; he certainly shows he has not finished high school and reveals colossal ignorance on many procedural aspects of empirical methodology. As for 'peer' review, we do NOT have to obtain approval from anybody else in Europe about what we do here. We have OUR own professional standards. So, if you read ‘Where is the Evidence Victor’ have pity on someone who is making a fool of himself and who is out of his depth.


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, and tell jokes – if you wish. Read more...

QUESTION: ARE YOU AGAINST THE CATHOLICS Victor?

Victor: I am NOT against the Catholics, I am not against religion, I am not against anyone. I respect your rights to believe whatever you want to believe as long as you do not do harm to others. And I raise legitimate issues cited by religions which insult our intelligence. As I stated in the past, there is no Biblical authority that a Catholic who remarries will experience eternal damnation. Or that, as was taught in the past – if you ate a ham sandwich on a Friday and died you would be sentenced to eternal damnation for committing a mortal sin. Or that a woman who uses contraception will be eternally punished – ignoring the fact that the world today cannot support billions more people with the scarcity of resources getting worse all the time. There is a crisis in the Church - and the sooner the Church wakes up to it the better for the Church and for Catholics. There is no original, authentic authority or just common sense to back up these Churchian directives which are hurting millions of people around the world. A Catholic Reformation is urgently needed to throw out the irrelevancies and to make theology consistent with spiritual empiricism.

ANOTHER POPULAR QUESTION: ARE YOU AGAINST THE SKEPTICS VICTOR?

First, let's define the terms: I am an open minded skepticmyself. But you are referring to the CLOSED MINDED SKEPTICS. No, I am NOT against any closed minded skeptic whoever he/she is because I accept that they are entitled to their personal beliefs. But they need to understand that closed minded skeptics do NOT have science or objectivity to support their beliefs and their claims that there is no afterlife and secondly, they have NOT rebutted the evidence for the afterlife. Whereas I ACCEPT the EVIDENCE for the afterlife, which has nothing to do with beliefs. In any inconsistency between empirical evidence and personal skeptical beliefs, inevitably, empirical evidence prevails - and will ALWAYS prevails over personal beliefs. I - and others like me - are at a advantage because we can independently support our evidence as distinct from just the closed minded skeptics 'beliefs' and blind faith.
