Many thanks!

Let’s hope it is just a rumour and all turns to nothing.

Email received as follows:-

From the video’s uploader: “Even though the some weeks ago published Materialisation-Film from Montcabirol aroused many discussions, their filming approach was a historical attempt!
It was clear, that a short film clip cannot prove the materialisation phenomenon, but neithermore it also doesn’t prove the contrary.
It simply was an important impulse for the cognition of the public, that has to be prepared that the new Generation of Physical Mediumship Groups and Mediums will provide more material in the future, that probably will bewilder some.

Outcome of the first discussions for example is, that the group this time filmed the cable bound medium seconds before the exposure of the hand happens. One can see the plastic cable binds that cannot be opened but only cut through with a loud noise.

Moreover after the exposure the control of the bindings was also filmed seconds after the exposure. Unfortunately the filmer touched the knob and for a second the camera went out, what sceptical viewers will consider as suspicious!

We have to understand, before judging, that it is not possible to film everyday. There have to be breaks between the filming sessions.
So the learning processes out of the first attempts will take a bit of time. The experimenters will learn more and more and if we support them - on the horizon I see the possibility to film even Full Materialisation maybe somewhen in the future!

We also have to give respect for the circle to position themselves in the lines of fire to bring a truth forward. Materialisation IS happening!”

Physical Mediumship articles that have previously appeared on the old version of this website will be uploaded periodically for posterity. Current relevant information will also be posted as well as interesting general spirit world articles.

Some words of encouragement from Silver Birch, hope you enjoy the following excerpt from “When Nothing Happens”, taken from the “Teachings of Silver Birch” edited by A W Austen.

“No time that is spent in the desire for spiritual attainment is ever wasted. You wait very patiently, I know, but I want you to realize that great progress continues all the time. The bonds of unity between us are being strengthened and there is a quickening in the perceptions of your own soul powers. Growth, unfoldment and evolution are taking place all the time.”Read more…

MEMBERS of a spiritualist group have given a “bingo boost” to a Scarborough day centre.

The Spiritual Light Group, which meets at the Unitarian Church in Victoria Parade, donated £199 to help buy a bingo machine for 101 Prospect Mount Road.

The money was collected during the group’s weekly meetings and at a special Easter egg raffle in April.

Organiser Margot Sibley said: “Most of the eggs were kindly donated by friends of the church and the mediums who gave their time for us with their clairvoyance.

“Without all their help we wouldn’t be able to support charities as we do.”

Mrs Sibley also thanked Andrew Hargrave for his donation of £50 towards the total.

The group meets every Tuesday evening at 6.45pm and new members are always welcome.

A TV show where rival contestants battle it out to avoid getting the sack… sound familiar?

But this is not Sir Alan Sugar and his ruthless business proteges — this is a world-famous psychic with a team of apprentices who are more interested in Ouija boards than boardrooms.

Medium Tony Stockwell has been in touch with the spirit world for more than 20 years and now wants to pass on his skills to one lucky trainee. After auditioning hundreds of hopefuls for his new show, he has chosen six finalists to compete to become the nation’s next top clairvoyant. And with more and more of us turning to mystics as the recession hits home, it seems there will be no shortage of demand for their services.

Colour test … Jenna’s psychic powers weren’t up to scratch

“Running through one, I saw a glowing, orange light that I knew was a spirit person. I wasn’t scared, more interested. “Later, I went along to a spiritualist church. I loved it and found I had a talent for it. From the age of 19 I was giving demonstrations there myself.” Now 40, Tony has written three best-selling books, appeared in three TV series and done five sell-out national tours. He also helps police around the world with investigations. “Most people have some intuitive ability,” he explains. “It’s like a muscle — you have to train and practice for it to work well. “Even if you’ve never done anything like this before, with the right instruction many people will find they have some psychic skill.” Hmm. At this point I fear Tony may have his work cut out with me. The only orange glow I remember from my childhood is from the bonfires on Guy Fawkes Night. However, I am fascinated by people who claim to communicate with other worlds and I am not an out-and-out sceptic. Tony starts my training by showing me two envelopes. He tells me that one of them contains a picture of a murderer, the other the victim. I close my eyes and pick up the envelopes. Tony says: “Relax, chill out, forget where you are and concentrate on your feelings. See if you can tell which person is in which envelope. “Rub your hands over them and trust your instincts.” The cynic in me says there is a 50/50 chance I will get it right but then, oddly, I begin to “feel sorry” for one envelope, while the other makes me angry. After I reveal my response, Tony says: “Well done — you got them bang on. You felt sorry for the victim and felt the rage of the killer.” Perturbed, I open the envelopes and look at the pictures closely. I try to clear my mind and concentrate on my emotions again. “Tell me what you feel about the killer,” Tony says softly. For some reason, I sense a hands-on job and a strong smell of cooking oil. I am stunned when it turns out the murderer was a chef in a hotel kitchen.

Workshop … Tony Stockwell tutors Jenna Sloan in the art of clairvoyance

Maybe this psychic lark is easier than I thought. Next, Tony hands me coloured ribbon, then blindfolds me and asks me to identify the colours. “This one is green,” I predict confidently. It’s red. “How does this colour feel,” Tony asks. “Er, squidgy?,” I reply. I get the yellow ribbon right, but to be honest I think that was just a fluke. Tony then shows me a picture of three elderly women and informs me that they were all together for a historic event. He asks if I have any idea what that was. I tell him I feel they survived the Second World War together, so I am a little deflated to I learn they actually all survived the sinking of the Titanic. On this performance, I’d be fired in the first episode of his search for a psychic star. An exercise using an old sepia photo of a nine-year-old girl is more fruitful. “You need to clear your mind, relax and get in touch with your feelings,” Tony says. “Don’t worry about looking silly. Just search your mind for emotions and tell me what they are.” Shutting my eyes, I try to clear my head and feel, well, anything other than foolish. “I think she was taken from her family,” I say. “I don’t see blood but it’s scary and I think maybe she was beaten or strangled.” Again, it feels like I’m spouting rubbish, but Tony confirms the little girl was murdered. She disappeared after being abducted and probably strangled by a neighbour many years ago. Great, so I’m rubbish at ribbons but totally tuned in to violent killings. As my session concludes, Tony insists: “You did really well, much better than a lot of people. I had one person who thought those old ladies were all ex-drag queens, so at least you didn’t come out with that!

“If you attended one of my psychic workshop classes, I’d definitely mark you out as having lots of potential.”

My inner sceptic is screaming that, as a journalist, of course I can piece together bits of information and come up with some sort of story. And I have reported on enough court cases to know about the typical kinds of murders.

But as a wannabe psychic, I’m thrilled by Tony’s praise.

Perhaps my future is sitting over a crystal ball as a fortune-teller on Blackpool Pier.

I’ll have to ask Tony.

Yesterday morning, my family and I got up at 5:30am in Mexico to begin our journey home from the Holistic Coaching Made Fun retreat. Eight hours of packing, driving, flying, and standing in line later, we arrived at the airport in Los Angeles physically intact but emotionally a bit worse for wear.

It was at this point, standing in yet another line with a screaming toddler in my arms, that my six year old daughter Clara decided she absolutely had to have a look at her passport picture. This was a seemingly innocuous request, but in fact would have involved my unhooking several bags from my shoulders and letting loose the toddler who, screaming aside, had already demonstrated her intention to leave no ‘Do Not Enter’ sign undisturbed in her exploration of the world of airport immigration.

Now, it would have been the easiest thing in the world to have thought ‘why me?’ when Clara was nipping at my ankles and the people around me in line were silently nominating me for a ‘person I’d most like to not sit next to on an airplane’ award. (Actually, many of the people around me may have been asking themselves just that.)

But after responding to Clara’s continual requests like a six year old adult, (I believe the words “I’m not going to do it and you can’t make me!” may have passed my lips :-), I took a deep breath, recognized that my reaction was more a function of my emotional state than her behavior, and I apologized for being mean to her.

“Mean?” she asked, incredulously. “You weren’t mean to me. You’re my daddy. Daddies can’t be mean.”

It was at this point that the question ‘why me?’ popped into my head. Why me? Why do I get to be loved so unconditionally by someone who is all too frequently in the line of fire when I lose my cool? How is it possible that her love and trust are still firmly intact after six years of sporadically positive parenting?

As I thought about some possible answers to those questions, the following story came to mind:

There is a notion in Jewish mysticism that the nature of the universe is not one of reward and punishment but rather one of receiving or rejecting God’s blessings. When we connect with our sense of value in the world and connection to others and to life, we become like God - we share naturally and receive continually. When we cut off from our awareness of being of value and a part of all things, we become distinctly human. We retreat into ourselves and experience a world of pain, loss and suffering.

Maybe when good things happen to me, it’s not so much a reward for good behavior as it is a case of an abundant universe sharing freely with one of its citizens. Maybe the reason I have a daughter who loves me unconditionally is to make it easier for me to be a really great father to her. And if you find yourself to be happy, or beautiful, or successful, or talented, or wealthy, maybe it’s so you will be able to share your happiness, beauty, talent, and wealth with the world.

Today’s Experiment:

1. Imagine if there was a storeroom of blessings waiting for you to accept delivery. What would be in that room?

2. Take a few moments now to accept your inherent worth. Remember the story of the crumpled $100 bill - no matter how much it’s been through or how beat up it looks, its value remains undiminished.

3. Finally, connect to both your humanity and your holiness - share something you have with someone who doesn’t and open yourself more fully to receive.

Have fun, learn heaps, and the next time you experience your life as filled with love, abundance, joy, and wonder, don’t forget to ask ‘why me?’
