COMMENTARY:
THE WORLD IS MOVING TOWARDS CRITICAL THINKING:
The critical
thinker is the true 
empiricist
who will use scientific method to measure any phenomenon.
If the tested phenomenon gets the same results over time
and space then that phenomenon has been tested and has
to be accepted. This also means that DOUBT has to be removed
and we should no longer be skeptical about the tested
phenomenon. There is already a great deal of empirical
evidence for the afterlife and knowledge of it is now
spreading at an exponential rate. Those of you who are
reading some of the evidence presented in this column
and in the recommended readings and investigating for
yourselves are the true critical thinkers.
BOOK
RECOMMENDATION- THE SURVIVAL FILES
The
Survival Files: The Most Convincing Evidence Yet Compiled
for the Survival of Your Soul is an excellent book
especially
for those new to afterlife research. It details 23 cases
each of which cannot be explained except as evidence for
survival after death. His website goes further- he has
40 cases listed in order of their ranking by the Evidence
Scoring System

FFF SAN FRANCISCO CONFERENCE
The
Forever Family Foundation which now has 3,000 members
has just held a very successful conference on the scientific
evidence for the afterlife in San Farancisco with a number
of the top scientists working in the field. This New York
based organization was started by Bob and Phran Ginsberg,
after the tragic death of their 15-year-old daughter,
Bailey, in 2002. Bob Ginsberg, who works in the insurance
business, said that until his daughter's death he never
contemplated the paranormal or the possibility of an afterlife.
But suddenly he felt he needed to hear from scientists
and researchers and explore for himself the evidence for
the afterlife. Read

FFF
MEDIUM CERTIFICATION PROGRAM
The
Forever Family Foundation recognizes the extreme importance
of safeguarding the public and identifying those who truly
have mediumship ability. To that end, it currently runs
its own medium certification program." "It
is unfortunate that large numbers of people who claim
to be mediums have no such ability. Some have psychic
abilities and gifted ESP talents, but cannot connect to
those on the "other side." Others are simply
charlatans or magicians that prey on those in grief. Read
the list of FFF certified mediums (Choose
Mediumship in the left hand menu).
MORE INTEREST IN THE AFTERLIFE THAN IN SEX
Ken from New York writes:
"I
just had to let you know that a talk show called: The
Maury Povich Show, aired today at 11am this morning. The
entire show was about the paranormal and mediumship. They
had an extraordinary local medium on named Jeffrey Wands.
He did a superb job relaying messages to grieving families
as well as audience members and performed beautifully
when called in to peoples homes that were "haunted".
Later in the show, he interviewed some radio hosts that
have a show strictly on the paranormal and one of the
radio hosts proclaimed on national television, on one
of the major networks that "right now, there is more
interest in the paranormal and mediumship, than there
is in sex". I think that I have to agree with him.
It's exploding in this country."
UK EXPERIMENTS ON REMOTE VIEWING
Thanks
to Margaret from the UK for notice about an interview
she listened to on the UK chat show "Richard and
Judy" on 30th January. Dr Chris Roe, a parapsychologist
at the University of Northampton said his early findings
suggest that up to 85 per cent of people may possess some
form of clairvoyance - the ability to "remote view"
which can be improved with training. The radio interviewers
had sent their own daughter to Dr Roe's lab to take part
in a remote viewing experiment. She
was remarkable and correctly described the location her
friend was sent to and picked out the photos of the site.

AFTER DEATH CONTACTS IN RENO
"There are so many people who have afterlife encounters,
and they don't tell anyone. Either they are embarrassed,
or they think others will think they are crazy, or they
de-value the experience as simply wishful thinking"
says Dr Annette Childs, a Reno therapist.
Death and what happens after it are the topics of some
upcoming events designed to "transform your life
by understanding death." Organized by Childs, workshops
on Feb. 22 and 23 in northwest Reno will kick off a new
program of monthly meetings designed to give people a
safe place to discuss near-death experiences and the messages
or visitations they receive from deceased loved ones.

ALLISON
DUBOIS' NEW WEBSITE

out Allison's new website launched on January 24th this
year- her birthday. It has lots of great features including
a frequently asked questions section and her list of recommended
mediums http://www.allisondubois.com/
THE
BRILLIANT MATERIALIZATIONS OF DAVID THOMPSON:
I’ve had unprecedented response to David 
Thompson’s
materializations. All state that it is a privilege to
attend his séances. There were those who were able
to make contact with the crossed over loved ones. These
stated it is a miracle – a most sensational evidence
for the existences of the afterlife. True, we are indeed
privileged to have a materialization medium these days
who is showing the world through his materializations
that there is an afterlife, that we are accountable for
all acts and omissions and that the more we know about
the afterlife, the easier the transition will be. But
because David Thompson is controversial, like every successful
medium to-day and in the past, he gets legitimate questions
and a couple of scurrilous attacks. Accordingly, I am
progressively dealing with some of the issues sent to
me for comment in Materialization Corner. Part 4 this
week. Read

MONTAGUE KEEN'S REPORT ON DAVID THOMPSON
MONTAGUE KEEN, PRINCIPAL AUTHOR (with Professor
David
Fontana and the late Professor Arthur Ellison) of the
'Scole Report' (1999), a detailed examination of the physical
phenomena produced during sittings with a mediumistic
group, and published by the Society for Psychical Research,
where he was secretary of its Survival Research Committee
and Chair of its Image Committee. Towards the end of his
career he concentrated on psychical research with special
emphasis on the evidence for survival. In 2003 he sat
with medium David Thompson and wrote a very detailed scientific
report. In it he wrote:
"The nature of the ties would have prevented
the medium, no matter how strong or agile, from escaping
his bonds without first managing to cut the ties. Even
had he been able to do so, he could not have regained
his seat and retied the knots unaided, employing a new
set of uncut ties, unless he had been helped by someone
able to work deftly, accurately and swiftly in pitch dark.
No-one in the séance room could have attempted
that without ready detection....The precautions here were
superior even to those employed by Schrenck Notzing on
Eva C, who was sewn into a single garment, or on the physical
medium Jack Webber, where less sophisticated tying methods,
and materials, were used."

LISA WILLIAMS, MEDIUM COMES TO
AUSTRALIAN TV-
Saturday night Ovation channel.
I
was unfamiliar with colleague Mike Tymn's nominated favourite
medium Lisa William until I saw the shorts of her program
which airs in Sydney for the first time this weekend.
She is young, dynamic and like Allison Dubois, she is
definitely taking the message of survival out to a young
audience. Her show on Lifetime is now in its second season,
and is also seen in United Kingdom on three different
networks. Williams is the granddaughter of Frances Glazebrook,
a well known British medium. See a
5 minute interview with Lisa talking about her mediumship.

THE STORY OF JENNY'S SANCTUARY
Ron
Gilkes from the UK has built a cottage at the back of
his home near Banbury that it is suitable for physical
mediumship (i.e. must be able to block out ALL light).
His story of meeting again his young daughter Jenny who
committed suicide is totally inspiring. He writes:
" Jenny, my daughter, first spoke ...at a Bath seminar
and was very tearful and saddened about passing to spirit
by her own hand.I cannot even begin to describe how on
this occasion, when I recognised Jenny's voice saying
'Hello Daddy: I am sorry Daddy', that I was able to compose
myself."
Ron makes avaiable a tape of the 5 occasions on which
his daughter spoke to him through different physical mediums.

WHAT RON GILKES LEARNED ABOUT SUICIDE
Ron
writes: "She has discussed things
about her granddad who had recently taken his own life
and how silly they had both been but are now having a
lovely time and concluded by telling us a joke about her
granddad. All five communications are full of interest
and it's so plain to see that although the taking of one's
life is not right and it causes a great deal of grief
for those who are left, it's still the most wonderful
thing to know that your loved one is perfectly happy and
getting on with their life in that Higher Plane of Existence.
As she said "Dying was nothing at all, that's the
easy part".
DEATHBED VISIONS OF CHILDREN
In
his book Closer to the Light—Learning from the
Near-Death Experiences of Children (1993) Dr Melvin
Morse puts forward the view that deathbed visions are
'a forgotten aspect of life's mysterious process' and
that they can have a wonderfully comforting and healing
effect on both the dying patient and the family. He recounts
several cases where dying children began to see visions
of the afterlife during the last few days of their lives.
They described amazing colors and beautiful places and
deceased relatives whom they sometimes had not known existed.
Recently Dr Morse has retired from full time pediatrics
and moved to the East Coast (of the USA) primarily to
devote himself to new research and writing on near death
experiences. http://www.melvinmorse.com/light.htm
SWEDISH MEDIUM TRYING TO DEVELOP
AS A PHYSICAL MEDIUM.
Anders
Åkesson works as a professional medium in Sweden
(15 years as mental and trance medium). He has been in
the media several times, as one of the mediums in the
Swedish edition of "Sensing murder" and "Most
Haunted". Anders is now trying to develop physical
mediumship himself and is taking small steps forward.
He has been a sitter with physical medium Stewart Alexander
three times when Stewart was in Sweden last year.

THE
LATEST RESEARCH ON THE NDE
Over 100 medical schools offer classes that cover the
phenomenon; medical teams the world over are increasingly
alert to the importance of such occurrences. They have
the power to change lives and even alter one's physiology,
sometimes to remarkable degrees. The near-death experience
continues to amaze and surprise everyone! Join the members
of Virginia's Chrysalis in Waynesboro, VA, for this special
presentation taped on October 17, 2007 that synergizes
the entire subject, and brings us up-to-date with the
new material and new findings that are "rocking"
the field.

A LAWYER WHO CHANNELS
By email from one of our subscribers: 
"Your latest [thursday 24th Jan] email newsletter
leaned heavily on proponents of the afterlife from a legal
background. But you missed the American lawyer James
E. Padgett from your list. I'll be honest, I'm
a follower of his channelled works and appreciate they
may not be to everyones liking...When you get the time,
please take the opportunity to review the material at
http://www.new-birth.net

WONDERFUL
FEEDBACK FROM VINCENT
Thank
you for the great work you have done and are doing to
bring to public awareness the truth about the afterlife.
Thanks to your website I have a renewed sense of hope
and realization that we are indeed more than just flesh
and blood creatures, and that there is indeed a better
place that awaits us after death. I cannot thank you enough
for your courage and determination to bring forth this
awareness despite the enormous and arrogant opposition
of the materialists and atheists. I want to especially
thank you for your information about Anthony
Borgia who was the medium for Mons. Benson. I am reading
about the afterlife messages of Mons. Benson and they
are truly magnificent and inspiring. I feel "born
again". Thank you once again, and GOD BLESS YOU!

SPEAKERS’ CORNER PICTURES

Israelis, Socialists, Lord Soper a great English orator,
American Hostage crisis 1980, No Tax Speaker:
(Victor, pictured below
2003 in more peaceful times speaking about the afterlife)
during 1965 -1978 at the Speakers' Corner in London and
the
Speakers Corner at the Domain Park in Sydney - was a tremendous
time of revolutionary social, religious and political
changes. The Vietnam war was at its peak. Youths were
conscripted to fight a losing war. Lives were being lost
on the killing fields of Vietnam. Anti-war demonstrations
were being held regularly.
Many anti-war demonstrators were beaten up during the
protest marches. People were beginning to feel that church
leaders had lost the monopoly on truth. Young people wanted
answers to questions theologians had refused or could
not answer for nearly 2,000 years. In many countries young
people won the right to vote at 18 years instead of 21
years. Enjoy
these historical photos – and a time that is
not likely to come around again:
