COMMENTARY: AFTER-DEATH CONTACT - PART OF THE DIVINE PLAN
According to Silver Birch:
"With knowledge, you could be sure that the one you love is closer than ever he or she has been before. You could taste some of the joy that comes with the appreciation of an understanding of spiritual reality.
Do not mourn because the caterpillar has become a beauteous butterfly. Do not weep because the cage has been opened and the bird has been set free. Rejoice, and know that the enfranchised soul has found liberty and that, if you would but unfold the powers that the Great Spirit has given you, you could share some of the new beauty and joy which is theirs.
You could understand the plan of death and realize that death is but a stepping stone, a door through which you enter into the larger freedom of the realms of the spirit.” Silver Birch Anthology p. 97
And from Mons. Hugh Benson: "Neither was it intended that the two worlds, ours and yours, should be as they are now - so far apart in thought and contact. The day will assuredly come when our two worlds will be closely interrelated, when communication between the two will be a commonplace of life."
Anthony Borgia Life in the World Unseen.
AFTER-DEATH CONTACTS Ask a group of ten friends if they have ever had an awareness of someone who has died, and you will usually find that at least half of them have. Such contacts are particularly common in the first few days and weeks after a person has transitioned, and in cases of sudden death. Dream visits where the person who died looks healthy, happy, and much younger than when they died are reported frequently. And sometimes our loved ones also reach out to help us when we face a crisis. Learn more about after-death contacts in the Foreword we wrote to August Goforth's wonderful book The Risen.
SILENT NO MORE People often experience communications from the dead, but many have been reluctant to discuss them for fear of being judged. This video was created by the Forever Family Foundation to encourage people to learn about the evidence and share their experiences. When we all share what we know, we will grieve less and lead richer and fuller lives.
THREE KINDS OF EVIDENTIAL ADCs
Last year, Ken R. Vincent reviewed 1667 cases on the After-Death Communication Research Foundation website. A total of 336 (20.1%) were found to be one of three types of evidential communications: (1) apparitions appearing prior to the experiencer’s knowledge of the death of a loved one. These numbered 180 (10.8%) of the sample. (2) apparitions appearing to multiple witnesses. These numbered 57 (3.4%) of the sample and (3) apparitions that convey knowledge unknown to the experiencer that is later proven to be true. These numbered 99 (5.9%) of the sample. Read more.
POST-MATERIALIST PHYSICS Post-materialist science assumes that science can be extended to accommodate consciousness and associated mental and spiritual experiences. The dialogue below brings together two researchers who are developing different but complementary approaches along these lines. Dr. Doug Matzke proposes that information underpins the extended physics and argues that a bit-physics universal simulation engine is built on space-like hyperspaces and proto-time. Dr. Bernard Carr also invokes the notion of higher dimensions and argues that an extended view of space and time is required to describe both ordinary and extraordinary mental phenomena.
MATERIALISATION OF A LOVED ONE THROUGH PHYSICAL MEDIUMSHIP
Physical mediumship occurs when spirit people use a medium to produce phenomena that can be seen, heard, or felt by everyone present in a room - for example, bangs and raps, movement of objects, and voices coming from mid-air. A very few highly developed physical mediums are able to produce materialisations; in their presence the spirit person becomes solid and can walk around the room and talk to people. This is predicable and repeatable. What could be greater evidence that we survive death? Read more about physical mediumship.
Gwen and Alf Byrne's son Russell died in 1963 at the age of 9. Gwen began looking for (and found) evidence of survival through mental mediums. Then, in August 1982, she received a phone call from a person who said that Russell had materialized at a physical mediumship circle, through the mediumship of English medium Rita Goold. He had given the name and address of his parents and asked that they be contacted.
After this, she was reunited with Russell on more than 100 occasions in front of other witnesses. Although it was in darkness, he was able to shine a torch on different parts of his body to show he was fully materialized. According to researcher Tricia Robertson, the late Professor Archie Roy confirmed Gwen and Alf's account and told her that he had been present and had also seen Russell use the torch to show his materialised body. Alf and Gwen were very courageous in going public with their experiences and their experiences must not be allowed to be forgotten.
THEY SAW LOVED ONES MATERIALISE
In Part 3 (at 3 minutes) and in Part 4 of this program, Tom Harrison, author of Life After Death - Living Proof talks about witnessing materialisations in his home circle. In Part 4 and Part 5 Gwen Byrne talks about her reunions with her son Russel. In Part 6 Alf Byrne mentions the scientists who attended but were not able to make their participation public.
PROFESSOR ECKHARD KRUSE INVESTIGATES PHYSICAL MEDIUMSHIP
"Séances? Establishing contact with discarnate entities in the darkness? Spirit voices, apports and ectoplasm...? It is not too long ago when I would have regarded such 'physical mediumship' as unbelievable stories from the past, or subjects for uncanny movies. All those alleged phenomena seemed to be so far off from our everyday experience and what science claims to know about our world...With each of my numerous visits to physical séances my perspective changed slowly but steadily. Skeptical curiosity changed into fascination. Now I am convinced unbiased scientific investigations of séance room phenomena can be very valuable and exciting." Read more.
Professor Kruse will be our guest at the Zoom Afterlife Global Gathering
next Sunday at 3 p.m. Eastern time (see details below). He will explain how he has been able to verify physical mediumship using modern technology. https://zoom.us/j/7595442928
USING EVP TO CONNECT WITH A LOVED ONE
Vicki Talbott is a retired a TESOL/Linguistics professor. When her only child, Braeden, died in a kayaking accident in 2000, they both already knew about the afterlife and Electronic Voice Phenomena. So it was not a surprise to Vicki when she started receiving messages from Braeden on her answerphone. What did surprise her, however, was that Braeden had already been coming through to a group of mothers experimenting with EVP. It seems that a group of children in the afterlife who called themselves and their parents 'The Big Circle' were working together to help each other to send messages to their parents by electronic means. Vicky joined The Big Circle and she and Braeden continue to work to communicate and unite children with their parents and teach about life everlasting.
LOVING HEART CONNECTIONS
Jane Vair Bissler, Ph.D., has spent 35 years working with grieving people as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Fellow in Thanatology. In this endeavor, she has written four books and most recently created the modality Loving Heart Connections™. This process teaches those who are grieving, as well as those who would like to connect with their spiritual guidance, a way to do this from the comfort of their own home. Jane is now training therapists in this new method. Read more.
CAROL AND MIKEY MORGAN "FLYING HIGH IN SPIRIT" Carol Morgan talks about how desperate she was to get in touch with her son Mikey after he transitioned in a car accident at the age of 20. She had a huge number of contact experiences with Mikey and spent two years practicing how to contact him telepathically, initially with the aid of a pendulum. Eventually, the communication became so clear that Mikey was able to dictate a book on his experiences in the afterlife. Read more.

ELAINE THORPE TRANCE MEDIUM
Elaine Thorpe is an English deep trance medium and spirit artist. Her father was a deep trance physical medium and she had experiences with physical mediumship from the age of 15. When she began her own training as a medium, in her 30s, she went into deep trance and brought through the spirit of Jonathan Hunter, a Victorian gentleman who lived from 1845-91. Jonathan is able to coat the medium's vocal cords with ectoplasm so that his voice sounds very much as it would through direct voice.
The video is set to open at 7 minutes 30 seconds where Jonathan takes control of the medium. He talks about the situation in Ukraine from a higher perspective and the need to stay positive in a changing world.
