COMMENTARY:
HUGE SUCCESS! THE SOLD OUT A.R.E.I.
AFTERLIFE CONFERENCE IN ARIZONA After
travelling all the way from Australia, Wendy and I were
absolutely stunned by the enthusiasm and love shown
by the 500+ people who attended the
AREI Symposium. We found the people who attended
were very friendly, with much warmth, telling us how
much they loved the event and the magnificent presentations
- and promised they will return for next year's Symposium.
A huge thank you to all (on both sides of life) who
worked so hard to make it such a spectacular success.
People were expressing so much enthusiasm and positive
emotion about the opportunity to be able to share and
network with other experiencers and researchers. The
presentations - including of course our own - were very
enthusiastically welcomed with standing ovations. Videos
will be available when they are processed. More later
on about next year's Symposium.

ANNOUNCING THE FORMATION OF THE NEW
WINDBRIDGE RESEARCH CENTER Dr.
Julie Beischel and Mark Boccuzziannounce the creation of a new organisation
which will enable them to focus on their first love
- mediumship research. "For nearly 10
years, the Windbridge Institute has performed research
on a lot of different topics. Earlier this year, we
realized that we were trying to do too much and to serve
too many audiences. To address this, we have co-founded
the Windbridge
Research Center, an Arizona nonprofit corporation
[501(c)(3) status pending]. The Center is dedicated
to performing rigorous scientific research and creating
*FREE* educational materials focused on dying, death,
and what comes next." Read

DAN
DRASIN TALKS ABOUT HIS ITC/EVP DOCUMENTARY "CALLING
EARTH" Dan
Drasin talks about his documentary which explores the
history of spirit communication via modern technology.
It includes the work of European EVP pioneers Friedrich
Juergenson and Konstantin Raudive as well as Mark Macy,
Marcello Bacci (Italy), Ernst Senkowski (Germany) and
Anabela Cardoso (Spain). The film also features Tom
and Lisa Butler, the directors of the Association TransCommunication.
When ITC is perfected we will be seeing images on a
screen of those who crossed over (to a small extent
this has been done already) - and who will answer questions
that will revolutionize our knowledge of the afterlife.
THE OLDEST NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE IN EUROPE?
Philippe Charlier at the University
of Versailles
in Montigny-le-Bretonneux, France, describes in the
journal Resuscitation how he discovered the
reference in an old medical textbook from 1766 called
Anecdotes de Médecine. Pierre-Jean du
Monchaux, a French military physician, tells the story
of a patient with a fever who had several blood-letting
treatments. The patient was unconscious for a long time
but when he awoke he reported that after he lost all
external sensations, he saw “such a pure and extreme
light that he thought he was in the Kingdom of the Blessed".

BBC DOCUMENTARY ON PAST LIVES
It is claimed that some children can remember exact
and verifiable details of a previous life. These details
can be objectively and independently confirmed. Some
of them have birth marks and birth defects at very same
locations as a lethal injury that caused their often
abrupt and violent past life death. Some can speak a
language they never have learnt in this life (xenoglossy).
They can in some cases remember names of siblings and
other family members in their past life family whom
they have never met in this life. The pioneer in this
research was the late Dr. Ian Stevenson.
DR. BERNADO KASTRUP INTERVIEWED ON SKEPTICO Alex

Allegory, Brief Peeks Beyond and Why
Materialism Is Baloney. He has also been an entrepreneur
and founder of a successful high-tech start-up. As well
as holding a managerial position in the high-tech industry,
he maintains a philosophy blog, a video interview series,
and continues to develop his ideas about the nature
of reality. He has lived and worked in four different
countries across continents, and currently resides in

AN ENGLISH NURSE WITNESSES A
CREE INDIAN'S DEATHBED VISION.
“He was a Cree Indian lad, about
20 years of age,
son of Chief Papewyn, of a neighbouring Reserve. (picture
shows a Cree-Indian lad). He was in the last stage of
phthisis and had been brought here to be cared for till
the finish... It was evening and I was with him. He
was lying quietly in his bed when suddenly he sat up,
stretched forth his arms with a yearning gesture, while
an ecstatic smile broke over his face. It was not simply
a smile of pleasure, but something far beyond it. The
veil was lifted, and no one who was looking on could
fail to realize that it was a glorious vision that met
his gaze. He then lay back in his bed, looked at me
with a smile, and passed away." Read

GORDON HIGGINSON
- A
BRILLIANT ENGLISH MEDIUM! What
follows is a news story from an ATV Today broadcast
on 20th November 1969 about Gordon Higginson and Longton
Spiritualist Church. It looks at Spiritualism, mediumship
and spiritual healing. This is some of the earliest
recorded footage of Gordon, who was one of Spiritualism's
greatest ambassadors. See also the Gordon
Higginson tribute website.
UNCONDITIONAL
LOVE
especially for the spiritually advanced.
Love, we are informed directly from
the afterlife is eternal and is the most powerful force
in the universe. Love traditionally has been seen in
three ways: first, romantic love, secondly filial love
(love to loved-ones in the family) and thirdly universal
love - love of all beings. I said before that when a
person attains the level of spirituality when he/she
can love all, forgive unconditionally - and do unconditional
selfless service, guaranteed, that person will have
a great place in the afterlife.
OUT OF BODY EXPLORER GRAHAM NICHOLLS
TALKS WITH JOSH TONGOLGraham
Nicholls has had hundreds of OBEs and is a world-recognized
expert on the subject. He speaks on many areas of spirituality,
art, and psychical research. And he’s been featured on
The BBC and in The Times. He's also the author of the
books Navigating
the Out-of-body Experience and Avenues
of the Human Spirit.
LUIZ GASPERETTO - BRAZILIAN MEDIUM In
Stanislav Grof's book "When
the Impossible Happens"
there's a chapter about Luiz Antonio Gasparetto, a psychologist
from Brazil who is able to go into trance and paint
in the style of a wide range of famous painters (Monet,
Picasso, Rembrandt, da Vinci, Modigliani, Manet, van
Gogh, Gauguin, etc). He doesn't just paint exact replicas
of existing paintings but "new motifs rendered
in easily recognizable styles of individual artists".
Dr. Grof describes how they actually turned all the
lights off except for one little red light over the
paper (red so that he couldn't distinguish color). He
would at times paint with two different paintings, one
with each hand at the same time and even did one upside
down under the table with his right foot. Loyd Auerbach
who was present at one of the demonstrations writes:
"The climax of the demonstration was when he did
four paintings at once: one with each hand, one with
each bare foot (these being done under the table at
which he was seated), while his eyes were closed and
he carried on a conversation. Each of the four paintings,
by the way, was supposedly by a different one of the
spirit artists (and they were, in fact, in four distinct
styles that an art expert there related to the named
artists)."
MEDIUMSHIP IS A NATURAL GIFT "It
was never part of the scheme of things that our two
worlds, yours and ours, should be separated, as it were,
into two compartments forever shut off from each other
from sight and sound. The means have always existed
whereby the people of the world in which I live could
communicate with the people of the world in which you
live. But Orthodoxy, in one form or another, has tried
to eliminate spiritual intercourse, or to prevent it,
by suppressing the instruments whereby such communication
is effected. Orthodoxy was not successful—and
never will be. The spirit world is vastly stronger than
Orthodoxy, and will ever be so." Hugh Benson writing
