It
is that time of the year again where we make
special effort to make a connection - meeting
up with or sending best wishes with the family
and to others we have not seen for a long time.
Our Western Christmas tradition also emphasizes
giving, and we are encouraged to actively go
out of our way to help people, to give comfort
to people - especially the down and out and
the lonely making them feel they are not abandoned.
It is most wonderful when people make a special
effort to bring love,
light and encouragement to others wherever they
may be. This year Wendy and I are celebrating
Christmas with family in the United States so
will be offline for a few days. However
you celebrate the holidays we wish you all a
joyous- and a very safe - Christmas wherever
you are!!!!!
DR. EBEN
ALEXANDER ON CONSCIOUSNESS
"
The pure scientific materialist model that I
worshiped for so many years has absolutely nothing
to offer up in terms of explaining how consciousness
might emerge from the physical brain. It gets
a lot worse when you realize that all the phenomenon
of the non-local consciousness -- things like
telepathy and psychokinesis, and of course near
death experiences -- indicate that consciousness
is a far deeper, more profound mystery than
"kindergarten level" scientific materialism
offers up.
Then you have the enigma of
quantum mechanics, which of course materialist
scientists are completely befuddled by and have
been for 100 years for a reason. Pure materialism
does not explain the nature of existence in
reality.
As long as scientists hold onto
that simplistic thinking they are going to be
mired down to never, ever explain consciousness
or the enigmas of quantum mechanics. But there
are a lot of scientists out there who do get
it and this new understanding has a lot to do
with healing." Read

SCIENCE AND THE SEANCE: STUNNING EVIDENCE
A
BBC Documentary on some of the great pioneers
of afterlife research with physical mediums.
Also includes information about
the Church of England enquiry into mediumship.
Fabulous. One
of the scientists featured is Sir Oliver Lodge
who wrote a book about his personal experience
of evidence of the afterlife. You can download
here a free copy of his book Raymond.

GRAHAME MACKENZIE
INTERVIEWS PROFESSOR JOHN POYNTON OF
THE SOCIETY FOR PSYCHICAL RESEARCH. "This
week, I (Grahame M.) am privileged to bring
to you a very special guest, Professor John
Poynton from the Society for Psychical Research.
Professor Poynton’s life-long interest
has been in African wildlife and classical music
and later an interest in psychical phenomena
and in mysticism. He takes a critical view of
the dogmatic materialism promoted both by current
science and by current philosophy and has helped
many people break free from the chains of materialism
through his books, his teachings and motivational
talks." Read

WHAT
HAPPENS WHEN YOU DIE? "When
death occurs, the
spirit takes with it everything that belongs
to the individual, everything which makes that
individual different from every other individual.
The consciousness, mind, traits, habits, idiosyncrasies,
the power to love, to inspire and give affection,
friendship, fellowship- all these are spiritual
qualities and because of that they persist.
All that is the real you cannot die, and all
that which belongs to the real you cannot die
either. Whether you can realize this or not,
and it is difficult to grasp in its fullness,
all that you love and that loves you is still
alive." (Some of the things Silver Birch
told famous movie star of the past Merle Oberon
about the conditions in the afterlife - during
one of Swaffer Circle meetings, where Silver
Birch used to speak).

QUESTION:
Do all people on crossing
over accept that they have died and are in the
afterlife? Dan S. Santa Monica, U.S.
Mons Hugh
Benson, directly from the afterlife,
"There is a surprising
number of people who do not realise that they
have passed from the earth in the death of the
physical body. Resolutely they will not believe
that they are what the earth would call "dead'.
They are dimly aware that some sort of change
has taken place, but what that change is they
are not prepared to say. Some, after a little
explanation and even demonstration, can grasp
what has actually happened; others are stubborn,
and will be convinced only after prolonged reasoning.
In the latter case, we are often times obliged
to leave such a soul for a while to allow a
little quiet contemplation to work its way"
( through medium Anthony Borgia).

NEW METHODS of AFTERLIFE COMMUNICATION:
Holiday times are especially
difficult for people who are grieving.
" Today, most people are able to have afterlife
communication with loved ones who have crossed
over. The Academy for Spiritual and Consciousness
Studies' 39th Annual Conference, July 2014,
is devoted to the range of methods available
today. (http://ascsi.org/conference/index2.html).
Two of the most successful are
Guided Afterlife Connections and Self-guided
Afterlife Connections. Guided
Afterlife Connections are performed by psychotherapists
in their offices. They are over 95% successful,
and they reduce grief from an average of 9.42
on a 10-point scale to an average of 1.41 in
one session.
Self-guided
Afterlife Connections use a procedure available
free on the Internet that anyone can go through
in their home, at any time. It is 86% successful
in helping people have connections."
GRIEF COUNSELLING
COURSE
The course "Transforming
the Fear, Healing the Pain" is a professional
counseling tool that can deliver benefits comparable
and even superior to traditional counseling
or psychotherapy approaches. It consists of
a professionally produced series of lectures,
of academic level but delivered in a manner
that makes it easy to follow by anybody. It
includes video lessons, interviews with leading
researchers and excerpts from some of the best
science documentaries produced during the last
20 years. It also includes a course workbook
that must be used in conjunction with the video
modules. The course costs a very reasonable

DOCTORS BELIEVE IN 'MIRACLES'.
A survey conducted in
the United States in 2004 discovered that doctors
believe in miracles. 1,100 physicians were questioned.
Some 73% maintained that 'miracles' had occurred
in the past whilst 73% believe that they still
occur to-day. The poll was commissioned by HCD
Research, a marketing and communications company
and Louis Finkelstein Institute for Religious
and Social Studies in the U.S. Two thirds of
the doctors said that they had encouraged their
patients to pray. Read

AMAZING NEW DEATH EXPERIENCE CONVINCES DOCTOR
PLATO
400 B.C. Belief
in the afterlife was discussed over 2,400 years
ago by people who were NOT religious. Here is
what that famous Greek philosopher had to state
about the afterlife: “When death approaches
a man his mortal part dies, but the immortal
part departs safe and incorruptible.”
ROBERT SCHWARTZ ABOUT HOW WE PLAN OUR LIVES
BEFORE OUR BIRTH http://www.youtube.com/embed/_GUmq8m4WyE
GOD! Occasionally,
I am asked what I think of God because I do
not
mention God in my research. I usually allow
for people to follow their own concept of God.
I was brought up as a Christian so that the
concept of God and the Trinity was drummed into
me for years. But whilst I accept there is an
ultimate power beyond my comprehension, I cannot
accept the Biblical Jehovah- a ‘jealous
God' a God of enormous cruelty, God of vengeance
and a ‘God of war’. I cannot accept
that God willfully ordered the killing of thousands
of innocent people because David offended God.
However as an empiricist I have been given the
powers of observation. When I look at the universe
– seeing billions of stars I see order.
A tiny drop of water one millimeter in diameter
contains 5,000 billion atoms (5 plus 21 zeros!)
all obeying order- the laws of physics. I accept
that the order that governs the universe is
the product of a UNIVERSAL MIND. I do NOT accept
that all has come by chance- because chance
does not explain order- a directed force has
to maintain order. The possibility of life originating
from accident is comparable to the probability
of the complete works of Shakespeare resulting
from an explosion in a printing shop. Further,
when Professor Albert Einstein was asked the
same question about God, he replied, “Suppose
I bring you a portrait that wins everybody’s
admiration, do we need to see the artist? No,
but we know that there is a MIND that created
the portrait.”
AFTERLIFE
UNREBUTTED: whilst the world
has some of the
most brilliant scientists and philosophers who
have stated in absolute terms the afterlife
exists, and the empiricists and scientists provided
excellent objective evidence for the afterlife,
since PLATO – and even before that –
no genius philosopher, no genius skeptical scientist
or anybody else has ever written a book stating
why the afterlife cannot exist. The facts speak
for themselves. The defeatists and losers are
to be regarded as younger ignorant brothers
and sisters who will, INEVITABLY, accept the
afterlife – some sooner, some later.
