COMMENTARY:
LIMITATIONS OF ORTHODOX SCIENCE
A non-traditional physicist reminded us about how slowly
orthodox science changes. In order to achieve acceptance
by orthodox science, anyone who wants to be taken seriously
has to have their articles submitted to PEER REVIEW.
However before any article is even published, three
conditions have to be met:
First, the author has to have at least a doctorate
in their field,
Secondly, the claimant has to be in good standing
with a prestigious university,
Thirdly, their ideas must not contradict currently
accepted theories.
BUT ... THE GREATEST INVENTORS of technological
advances did not
have ANY of the above. Anyone who switches
on an electric light, turns on a television, makes a
telephone call, watches a film, plays a record, takes
a photograph, uses a personal computer, drives a car
or travels by plane
has the lone eccentric to thank. Their inventors had
no university degree, did
not go to a prestigious university and did not have
a doctorate! And yes, orthodox scientists derided and
ridiculed all of these inventors - before they perfected
their products; people like Bill Gates,
Steve Jobs who both dropped out from
university - and many others like them.
Conclusion:
orthodox scientists must WAKE UP to the twenty first
century and judge by 'results'. They need to open their
minds to the afterlife and 'paranormal' activity on
the basis of the evidence.
DR ANTHONY CICORA'S NDE Tony
Cicoria is a doctor specializing in orthopedic medicine,
orthopedic surgery, orthotics, prosthetic supplies, and
sports medicine. In 1994, when he was 42 years old, he
was struck by lightning. He was able to look down on his
body and see and hear other people talking. But they could
not see or hear him. He says he was amazed to find that
he could still think and concluded "Whoever I am,
I always am, and whatever is on the floor (his body) is
nothing more than a shell."
MARK MACY AND WORLD ITC According
to Mark Macy,
a leading afterlife researcher, throughout the 1990's
wonderful communication with spirit took place in research
laboratories in Europe. Extended, two-way communication
with spirit colleagues took place almost daily through
telephone answering machines, radios and computer printouts.
At the center of this work was a Luxembourg couple,
Maggy and Jules Harsch-Fischbach. For the full story
of these miraculous communications see Miracles
in the Storm: Talking to the Other Side with the New
Technology of Spiritual Contact.
DR. ANABELA CARDOSO
DEFENDS THE LUXEMBOURG ITC COMMUNICATIONS Dr.
Cardoso,
editor of The ITC
journal, points out that "dozens of European
figures of prestige and scientific knowledge witnessed,
and in some cases were the recipients of those extraordinary
communications" received in Luxembourg. (Read
details of the Luxembourg communications) In her
blog she posts the testimony of a first hand witness,
respected Finnish writer and psychical researcher, Irma
Weisen. Read

HOW TO CONTACT OTHER DIMENSIONS
WITH ITC Some things
that successful ITC communicators have in common are
extreme dedication and a strong desire to help people
who are grieving. If you would like to join their efforts,
check out the series
of videos and instructions
that Craig Hogan and Rob Blackburn have created to show
you how to help you set up Instrumental TransCommunication
equipment, perform the recordings, and analyze the results.
Here is the first video.
WE REMEMBER BRILLIANT BRITISH
COSMOLOGIST, DR.
FRED HOYLE "When science begins
the study of non-physical phenomena, it will make more
progress in one decade than in all the centuries of
its experiences." These days there are scientists
studying non-physical energy and they are explaining
the wonders of the paranormal and the universe.
ROBIN FOY TALKS ABOUT PHYSICAL MEDIUMSHIP AND THE SCOLE
EXPERIMENT Robin Foy
and his wife, Sandra, have investigated psychic phenomena
for over 40 years. They were core members of The
Scole Experiment team in the UK in the 1990's, which
was a five-year investigation into life after death.
In this video Robin clarifies the difference
between mental and physical mediumship and compares
ectoplasm-based versus energy-based mediumship.
PHYSICALMEDIUMSHIP4U IS BACK
Robin Foy has run an
online website to answer questions and share information
about physical mediumship since 2009. Its future had been
in doubt, but now Robin says "I am delighted to inform
all members that the site is now back again and fully
operational." As before, you can now contact Robin
through the site, or email him at scolehole@yahoo.co.uk
WHAT IS SPIRITUALISM? Some people call
themselves Spiritualists
because they accept that the afterlife can be scientifically
investigated through the use of evidential mediums. Others
say that to be a Spiritualist you also need to study and
accept the philosophy that has been transmitted through
mediums by higher beings like Silver Birch. And some follow
Spiritualism as a religion which has churches and services
and generally follow the teachings contained in the Seven
Principles of Spiritualism. Spiritualist churches
are unique in that, as part of the service, they have
mediums who give demonstrations of communication with
the spirit world. Spiritualist
churches and organisations often run development circles
where people can develop their intuition.
OUT-OF-BODY EXPERIENCE TEACHER
Graham Nicholls is an English author, and a leading practitioner,
teacher and researcher into out-of-body experiences. He
brings both a wonderful commitment to objective science
and a personal commitment to spirituality. His second
book, Navigating
the Out-of-Body Experience, has been widely praised
by other OBE experiencers. He is also a co-author of Consciousness
Beyond the Body, a scientifically focused exploration
of the theories and evidence for OBEs, which was published
in February 2016. He now lives in Estonia and gives individual
tuition on how to have an OBE via Skype. Read

WE ARE ALL PART OF THE DIVINE "One has to remember
that each
spirit, each soul, has the 'spark of the Divine'. A
soul may be able to reduce his/her activities to bring
the spark of the Divine to a flicker, but the light
never goes out. The link to the Divine is a link forged
in eternity. No soul descends so low that it cannot
rise. No soul is so high that it cannot descend to help
the lowest." (S.Birch)
QUESTION ON FREE WILL
Victor, why would people choose to do something bad that
will affect them when they cross over? I would have thought
that no one would be so stupid when they could find themselves
in the lower, darker regions for being cruel and causing
pain on to others. Any comment on that? Lew B. Ohio.(U.S.)
Victor: I do understand your sentiment
and it seems very
reasonable. But we have to see how we behave here in the
context of our free will. We are here to learn and grow
from our choices in life including our "mistakes".
Every experience is valuable and we cannot make spiritual
progress without this free-will. If some people act out
of greed or cruelty or selfishness, they will have to
experience the consequences of that both in this life
and during their life review. And then they will have
to work harder to increase their level of spirituality.
CAN WE EVER BE REINCARNATED AS
ANIMALS OR INSECTS? That
is a very interesting question put
to me just recently by a young Buddhist who was concerned
that Buddhism teaches that he could be reincarnated as
a worm. Some Buddhist scholars claim that this is a complete
misunderstanding of Buddhism. In any event it is certainly
not supported by evidence. A few people claim to remember
previous incarnations as animals during past life regressions.
And many people claim that they are convinced that their
current pet is a
reincarnation of a previous one. But there is absolutely
no evidence at all that we can come back to a species
lower than the vibrations we have reached.
1) Hello Victor and Wendy,
I much appreciated the simple but beautifully effective
quotation from White Feather in the 3rd February Report
("Wise Words from Spirit"). I have been experiencing
tremendous guilt about not dealing with my son's illness
in a different way, but messages like this are extremely
comforting and reassuring as I know how deeply I love
him and I attempted to do the best in the situation in
which I found myself. I was inspired to buy a book of
White Feather's teachings today, which are comparable
to those of Silver Birch, and look forward to learning
more. Julia
2) You did it again Victor. Your last newsletter, Another
super helpful contribution to my personal evolution and
a wonderful contribution to mankind. Joseph
3) Great report and positive message again. Thanks for
your indefatigable spirit with sharing every week. Elizabeth
HIGHLY INSPIRED
MUSIC A magnificent presentation of
the music Nella Fantasia sung beautifully by Sarah Brightman.
The song itself is one of the most beautiful I have
heard. The lighting and camera work from all angles
highlight the very special music. Open your heart and
listen to this sublime performance.
Whilst we encourage and we publish many
papers and reports by afterlife researchers, we are
not in a position to guarantee the accuracy of all claims.
We accept the imputed claim that the afterlife and paranormal
research done by the researchers is done in good faith.
