COMMENTARY: PERSONAL EXPERIENCE CREATES CERTAINTY When it comes to the afterlife, the people who are most confident of their position are those who have had a personal experience of direct afterlife contact.
Some are naturally aware of other dimensions from a young age. Others are changed by a near-death or an out-of-body experience, an evidential reading with a medium or an experience sitting in a physical mediumship circle. Some of the most frequent experiences that also have a huge impact on people are after-death contacts, dream visits or getting a response to a question through EVP.
We constantly hear people who have had personal experiences say "I don't care what anyone says, I know what happened to me, I know what I saw and what I heard". As Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, who had many wonderful experiences of afterlife contact, put it:
"We are not here to convince other people. I share what I know and how I verified it to my satisfaction, and those who can hear will hear, and those who do not hear, they will just be pleasantly surprised when they make their own transition."
DR. YVONNE KASON ON SPIRITUALLY TRANSFORMING EXPERIENCES This is an inspiring interview with Yvonne Kason M.D, a retired family physician and transpersonal psychotherapist. Her medical specialty was the research and counseling of patients who had diverse types of spiritually transformative experiences, or STEs, a term that she coined. She is the President of Spiritual Awakenings International, a global network dedicated to raising awareness about NDEs and other Spiritually Transformative Experiences. She has published five books, including her most recent one, Touched by the Light: Exploring Spiritually Transformative Experiences.
HOW DOES SCIENCE REACT TO NEW IDEAS? "In science, the acceptance of new ideas follows a predictable, four-stage sequence.
In Stage 1, skeptics confidently proclaim that the idea is impossible because it violates the Laws of Science. This stage can last from years to centuries, depending on how much the idea challenges conventional wisdom.
In Stage 2, skeptics reluctantly concede that the idea is possible, but it is not very interesting and the claimed effects are extremely weak.
Stage 3 begins when the mainstream realizes that the idea is not only important, but its effects are much stronger and more pervasive than previously imagined.
Stage 4 is achieved when the same critics who used to disavow any interest in the idea begin to proclaim that they thought of it first.
Eventually, no one remembers that the idea was once considered a dangerous heresy."
Dr. Dean Radin, The Conscious Universe Ch.1
BRIAN WEISS ON SOUL MATES Brian Weiss, a leading past-life regression therapist, explains how we are always reunited with our soul mates, or soul families, in various configurations, from one lifetime to the next.
MAKE YOUR OWN AFTERLIFE CONNECTIONS The Self-Guided Afterlife Connection procedure developed by Dr. Craig Hogan is a free training program that will teach you how to enter a state of mind in which afterlife connections can and do occur. They happen in 86% of the people who go through the training. The goal of the training is for you to learn how to enter the state of mind to connect with your loved one at any time, in any place. You won't need the meditation music or guidance provided during the training. When you sense your loved one's presence, you can quiet yourself and have a dialogue with them. Read more.
WE LIVE FOREVER: THE REAL TRUTH ABOUT DEATH - PMH ATWATER Even before she had her three near-death experiences in 1970, PMH Atwater was a natural shaman, having direct contact with nature spirits and out-of-body experiences. In this fascinating talk she details her difficult childhood, and the incredible challenges she faced re-learning everything she lost during her illnesses. She has gone on to be a giant in the field of near-death studies, alternative health and mysticism. All her books are outstanding but "We Live Forever - the Real Truth About Death" is a favourite gem.
MICHAEL TYMN'S SEARCH FOR GOD Michael Tymn's blog
post "Where
is God in the Pandemic?" outlines a journey that
many of us share. "I was looking for something more
than a God who wanted to be worshipped incessantly,"
he says. He argues that it is time for churches to replace
the concepts of "worship" and "faith"
with knowledge of the "immortality of man, held not
as an article of faith, a clause in a creed, but as a
piece of personal knowledge and individual experience."
Mike
says that he was able to find the evidence he needed by
studying the scientific approach of the pioneers of psychical
research during the period 1850 to 1935. His
books provide an invaluable introduction for others
seeking hard evidence of the afterlife.
PAST LIFE MEMORIES OF CHILDREN The story of Nicola is one of the most outstanding cases of childhood recall, leading to evidence one wouldn't expect. When only a young child of two years old Nicola recalled past life memories. She prompted her skeptical mother to undertake a search for the truth. It's an amazing story and one that shows how close to the surface past life memories sometimes are in children.
CHILDREN IN THE AFTERLIFE
Immediately on crossing over, infants from those even minutes old to older children are met by specially trained carers from the other side. They are taken to a very special place – perhaps the best description would be a kind of a children’s ‘hospital’ where they are looked after with much love by those connected with the child – and by the specially trained personnel. They grow in the normal way - being given much love - and are also given education until adulthood. The child will have carers to bring him/her to visit the parents and family still living on earth.

"Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
I am but waiting for you, for an interval,
somewhere very near,
just round the corner".
From "Death is Nothing at all" by Henry Scott-Holland.
REVISITING THE BIRTH OF SPIRITUALISM THROUGH ITS MEDIUMS An excellent presentation by Ricardo Mastroleo PhD. who gives a very interesting overview of the early mediums: The Fox Sisters, The Davenport Brothers, Madame d'Esperance, Leonora Piper, Eusapia Palladino, and Daniel Home.
INTERMEDIATE/ ADVANCED TRAINING IN MEDIUMSHIP Christine Morgan CSNU is a highly experienced teacher of mediumship who tutors at the Arthur Findlay College and runs her own School of Intuitive Arts. She explains that "sitting in the power" is a meditation that mediums use to develop their awareness of the spirit world and add power to their mediumship.
In response to repeated requests she is running a series of online workshops for intermediate /advancing mediums where there will be guidance to deepen and refine mediumistic ability, to become a stronger clearer channel for the Spirit World. Read more.

Global Gathering - Our guest this week will be Dr. Linda Burnham N.D. As a gifted spiritual intuitive, she believes the most important thing any of us can
learn is who we are: physically, emotionally, mentally, energetically and
spiritually. “We can all connect and communicate with Spirit, with Divinity, with
Light Beings for guidance and support. Angels, Guardians of Light and Spiritual Guides are indeed real and available to help us all. We just need to ask… and then be open to receive.” She will lead us in a "Meet your guardian Light Beings" meditation and show us ways we can strengthen our interaction with spiritual light beings, daily acknowledgement, daily awareness of their presence, daily asking for their support in little and big things, daily
gratitude.

EVIDENCE THAT ANIMALS ARE TELEPATHIC We are constantly told that the natural method of communication in the afterlife is telepathy. Rupert Sheldrake's well constructed experiments have shown us that many animals are telepathic. When they are able to use language, like this parrot, it is easier to obtain evidence of this.
LOOK UP AT THE STARS NOT AT THE MUD "There will occasionally be setbacks. The tide ebbs and flows. But as sure as the sun sets and rises and the seasons follow one another in a seemingly automatic procession, so will the power of the spirit continue to infiltrate all over your world, bringing great joy, peace, knowledge, and serenity to many who do not now possess it. So, as you say, look up at the stars, not at the mud. Guidance comes from above, not from below." Silver Birch Lift Up Your Hearts p.138
ANGELS AMONG US SPREADING UNCONDITIONAL LOVE Blessings to all who are involved with programs for prisoners to train service dogs. What an incredible way to open the hearts of all concerned.
FEEDBACK: (Three only)
1) "Of course there will be a wonderful reunion by Robin Foy with his loved ones and friends on the other side and it would be most amazing if he comes through at a seance with a known physical medium. Thank you, Victor and Wendy, for featuring his work. I am one of his followers". Rotsen
2) "The Scole Report kick started my search for truth and spiritual journey. It led me down many paths to find the truths that are hidden from us. When you search, evidence jumps out at you. Curiosity is your best friend and the answers jump out at you. Thank you for giving so many links that led to discovery of the certainty of the continuation of life eternal - and for me, the proof of the magic in the universe". Lynne
3)
"Hours and hours of wonderful validations from the Scole group to Chico Xavier. This was an incredibly great experience. Thank you so very much!!" Lisa
HIGHLY INSPIRATIONAL MUSIC:
ENYA'S VERSION OF "HOW CAN
I KEEP FROM SINGING"? This
beautiful Christian hymn dates from at least 1868 and
has always been associated with times of painful change.
During the 1960s Pete Seeger made it well known in folk
music/protest circles with slightly modified words. It
seems appropriate for our times today.
One reviewer wrote:
"What am I to do? With the daily news of bombings,
shootings, storms, devastation of civilization and nature
-- and at the same time the outpouring of love and support,
beautiful sunrises and amazing acts of kindness."
Lyrics
My life goes on in endless song
Above earth's lamentation
I hear the real, though far-off hymn
That hails a new creation.
Through all the tumult and the strife
I hear its music ringing
It sounds an echo in my soul
How can I keep from singing?
While though the tempest loudly roars
I hear the truth, it liveth
And though the darkness 'round me close
Songs in the night it giveth.
No storm can shake my inmost calm
While to that rock I'm clinging
Since love is Lord of heaven and earth
How can I keep from singing?
When tyrants tremble in their fear
And hear their death knell ringing
When friends rejoice both far and near
How can I keep from singing?
In prison cell and dungeon vile
Our thoughts to them are winging
When friends by shame are undefiled
How can I keep from singing?
