COMMENTARY: MEDICAL
PROFESSIONALS ARE SHARING AFTERLIFE EXPERIENCES In
a video featured in last week's report, Dr. Todd Michael
answers his own question "should medical doctors
be talking about the afterlife?" (see video
at 31 min 30 sec). His reply was, "Yes, We
should be talking about this because I'm talking to
a lot of other ones [doctors] and a lot of nurses and
they're saying 'Yes we perceive this too, at one level
or another, and there's nothing wrong with it.' We LET
the medical profession shame us in subtle ways. They
don't come right out and sanction us and censure us,
but we let them keep us from talking about it."
In competitive scientific and academic institutions,
the informal sanctions on professionals who speak out
about the afterlife and the paranormal are very real.
In The Journal of Scientific
Exploration Etzel Cardena of Lund University, Sweden,
describes the blatant attempts to suppress and censor
parapsychology research and those who are doing it.
Instances include raising false accusations, barring
access to journals, suppressing papers and data, and
ostracizing and persecuting scientists interested in
the topic (read a pdf
copy of the article). We have,
on many occasions, been contacted by scientists who
tell us that they can't say anything about their contacts
with the afterlife until they retire.
But doctors and nurses who work close to birth and death
on a daily basis may be more open-minded as a result
of direct personal experience. Although we often hear
about doctors being highly skeptical, in
a survey of 1,044 doctors in the USA, 59 percent
said they believe in some sort of afterlife. A
recent book by Dr. Scott Kolbaba includes 'miraculous'
experiences by 27 physicians (chosen from 200 experiences
he gathered).
So, although there may still be pressure on medical
practitioners to keep these experiences to themselves,
it is encouraging to see that there are at least some
doctors and nurses who are embracing research (especially
in the areas of NDEs and end-of-life experiences) and
speaking out about afterlife contact experiences.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: WHY KNOWLEDGE
OF THE AFTERLIFE MATTERS In
this short inspirational clip, out-of-body teacher William
Buhlmann argues that "if people really knew what
they were, there'd be no wars, there'd be no poverty,
there'd be none of the ills that face humanity today."
AN
OBE ACTION PLAN William
Buhlman is the author of Adventures
Beyond the Body, one of the most popular books
on how to have an out-of-body experience. He conducts
an in-depth six-day workshop titled, Out-of-Body
Exploration Intensive at The Monroe Institute.
In this short article he outlines
his action plan for having an OBE. You can access
the essence of his course on his

PHYSICIANS ON HOW THEY HANDLE
NDES IN THEIR MEDICAL PRACTICE
Physician panelists Mary Neal, Rebecca Valla, James
Kwako, and Rajiv Parti share how near-death experiences
and knowledge of the afterlife have impacted their practices.
HOW PROFESSOR BARRETT DISCOVERED DEATHBED VISIONS
It was Professor Barrett's wife, Lady
Florence
Barrett, an obstetric surgeon, (pictured left) whose
observations led to the serious study of "deathbed
visions." She told her husband about a woman who
had died at her hospital after having a baby. Just before
the woman died, she sat up and become very excited about
seeing a wonderful place and said that her father had
come to take her there. Then she expressed surprise
to see her sister with her father. It seems that the
sister had died three weeks before, but Doris had not
been told. This story was so interesting to Professor
Barrett that he undertook a
systematic study of death-bed visions.
DR. IAN RUBENSTEIN MEDICAL MEDIUM
Ian Rubenstein is an English doctor who successfully
combines medicine and mediumship at the local level
as a primary care physician. His fascinating book Consulting
Spirit is the true story of a general practitioner
who was drawn into the world of spirit mediumship and
started receiving messages from his patients' deceased
relatives. He says that the only time anyone complained
was a woman who told the practice manager she was not
happy because she "hadn't been given a message."
NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCES LEAD
TO INCREASED PSYCHIC ABILITIES
Researcher PMH Atwater says experiencers
who weren't psychic before their NDE often develop these
abilities. Those who were psychic beforehand, usually
'skyrocket.' She says, "Out-of-body experiences
can continue, the light beings met in death can become
a daily part of life routines, the future is often known
before it occurs, extrasensory perception becomes normal
and ordinary." (The
Big Book of Near-Death Experiences, p. 103).
DR. JEFF O'DRISCOLL'S AFTERLIFE EXPERIENCES
It's refreshing to meet another
emergency care physician who has been willing to go
public with his experiences, including seeing the deceased
wife of a patient. Jeff
O'Driscoll M.D. shares his own spiritual experiences
and those he has witnessed in others. His recent book
is Not
Yet.
DO WE STILL HAVE A BODY WHEN WE DIE?
In the early stages, it seems so. From a spirit speaking
through direct voice medium John Sloan:
"I have a body which is a duplicate of what I had
on earth, the same hands, legs and feet, and they move
the same as yours do. This etheric body I had on earth
interpenetrated the physical body. The etheric is the
real body and an exact duplicate of our earth body.
At death, we just emerge from our flesh covering and
continue our life in the etheric world, functioning
by means of the etheric body just as we functioned on
earth in the physical body. This etheric body is just
as substantial to us now as the physical body was to
us when we lived on earth. We have the same sensations.
When we touch an object, we can feel it, when we look
at something, we can see it. Though our bodies are not
material, as you understand the word, yet they have
form and feature and expression. We move from place
to place as you do, but much more quickly than you can."
A spirit communicator quoted in Arthur Findlay's The
Way of Life.
THE MIND MIRROR: LEARNING FROM
OBSERVING YOUR BRAINWAVE PATTERN What
if you could learn to meditate more deeply, or become
highly creative, or simply be happier through bio-feedback
from an EEG based machine? Judith Pennington of the
Awakened Mind Institute/Mind Mirror explains how
the mind mirror works and gives a demonstration.Next Sunday at 11am UK time on zoom we will
be talking with a practitioner about how the mind mirror
can be used with mediumship - see meeting details below.

JURGEN ZIEWE - ANSWERS ABOUT THE AFTERLIFE PART 4 These
are the topics covered:
Do we eat and enjoy food in the Afterlife, and what
is it made of? Do we still work when we no longer need
to? What kind of work will we do? What do we look like
after we died, and are we forced to re-incarnate? What
is the process behind re-incarnation? What are the mechanics?

SOMETHING INSPIRATIONAL: THE EXQUISITE VOICE OF EVA
CASSIDY SINGING 'SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW' Eva
Cassidy possessed one of the finest singing voices of
her generation, but few people outside her home town
of Washington, DC, were aware of her until after her
death on 2nd November, 1996. Several posthumous compilations
and live recordings were released and, after finally
achieving radio play in the UK several years later,
her talent was recognised by the public, leading to
huge international sales. The New York Times spoke of
her "silken soprano voice with a wide and seemingly
effortless range, unerring pitch and a gift for phrasing
that at times was heart-stoppingly eloquent." Enjoy
her gentle and unique version of this timeless song.
Lyrics
Somewhere over the rainbow- way
up high
in the land
that I heard of once
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow- skies
are blue
and the dreams
that you dare to dream
really do come true
Someday I'll wish upon a star
and wake up
where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
away above the chimney tops
that's where you'll find me
(Instrumental)
Someday I'll wish upon a star
and wake up
where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
away above the chimney tops
that's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
skies are blue
and the dreams...that you dare to dream
really do come true
If happy little bluebirds fly
above the rainbow, why
Oh, why can't I?
