Last week's report

2nd January 2008
Apologies if I have not replied to your email. Wendy and I have been taking some family time in Los Angeles and Portland.

A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!



COMMENTARY:A NEW YEAR RESOLUTION?
This is a good time of the year to plan what we want to achieve this year. Remember, the clock keeps on ticking - and time waits for nobody! In the grand scheme of things our lives are just a 'fraction of an eye-blink.' Over and over the message comes from the other side "If only I had known... I could have done so much more..." Nothing comes by chance - so careful intelligent planning for the next 12 months is what we all must do. I'm borrowing from Oprah's resolutions for this year. In addition to the usual deadlines we have and the demands made on us, I find that by also focusing on three positive things we all should see the year out successfully.

First: HEALTH. This is very important. We all know that we must exercise and watch what we eat because the consequence of being negligent in relation to our bodies could be quite devastating. As well continuing research on the mind-body connection shows us that how we think about our health is equally important. Now is a good time to actually make a commitment to doing something about it, preferably with someone else.

Second: SPIRITUALITY: Most of us know that is critically important to read daily about afterlife matters as well as to set aside some time for quiet meditation. It is so easy to get caught up in the material world with its pressures and fears. Oprah, in the latest edition of her magazine, confesses that it was only when she allowed herself to get too busy for daily meditation and gratitude journalling that her heath began to fall apart. Keeping ourselves connected to spirit reminds us that nothing can hurt us. We can lose the fear of death, lose the fear of the unknown.

Third: FUN - what do you do for fun? We must be creative to balance working long hours with some fun - listening to wonderful melodious music, reading books and journals, traveling, taking photographs, learning new things, taking up a sport- just to mention a few ideas. Those who come through to us from the afterlife often tell us that they work at things they love so that work is fun and they balance work by taking opportunities to be with like-minded people and to do creative things they never had the chance to do while alive on earth. I haven't heard of anyone in the realms of the light who remains a "work-aholic".

Those who take the opportunity to learn about the afterlife on a daily basis, to practice thought control and to raise their vibrations through creativity and selfless service will find crossing over a joyful homecoming.
Best to all for the New Year!!!

OUR VISIT TO THE U.S.
:
from Hollywood, Los Angeles we went to Portland (picture, left) - not far from Seattle. What we notice consistently over the number of times we visited the U.S. is the friendliness of the American people. We have found that wherever we went - especially in Portland, the people are so very friendly. When someone exudes positive energy, friendliness and the willingness to help a stranger for no personal motive or incentive - that to me is always so very impressive. I had my very first white Christmas- gentle snow falling as we were walking outside shops (see picture left). I thought it was incredibly beautiful. Of course, within a couple of days the snow completely melted and the sun came out - without any trace of snow. It was a wonderful experience for us as in our hometown during Christmas time is sub-tropical - is usually around 28 to 30 Celsius (78-80 Farenheit). Above, Victor on the last day of the snow.

OBJECTIONS OVERRULED! These below are some of the most common objections raised by the skeptics about the evidence for the afterlife I received in the last 20 years. I will be including one objection every week for the next twenty weeks. For any feedback on this specific issue feel free to contact me on 2008@victorzammit.com

1st Objection. “The evidence for the afterlife cannot be valid because there is no afterlife.”

Victor: That is an inadmissible objection because the objector is making an assumption there is no afterlife without producing any objective evidence that there is no afterlife. No one on earth has ever produced evidence to show that there is no afterlife, therefore the objection cannot be accepted and technically the objection is inadmissible. But there is a huge amount of expressly stated evidence - much of it objective and repeatable - for the existence of the afterlife. For example, I presented some twenty two areas of afterlife evidence which have not been rebutted by the materialist experts or by anyone in the last eight years.

MEETING WITH DR WALLY JOHNSTON
While in Portland I had the great privilege of meeting with Dr Wally Johnston, a retired professor of Education, whose story is told in the fascinating and highly recommended book "People Who Don't Know They are Dead."
Wally also told me about another book he has co-written called "Possible Fatal" about the Near Death Experience and subsequent life changes of Joanie Thurston who was in a automobile accident on May 13, 1997; she fell asleep at the wheel, struck a light pole, and died. During her NDE Joanie was directed to "tell her story and make it common knowledge." Making a profit was not mentioned. For that reason the publisher has decided to make Possible Fatal available without cost to those who are unable to pay for it.

THE GREAT JAMES VAN PRAAGH
Top American Medium, James Van Praagh, answers the following questions:What do people want to know when they come to you? Why do people want to communicate with the dead? What can I learn from speaking to the dead? How rare is the ability to communicate with the dead? How do I know if a medium or psychic is legitimate? How do fraudulent or unreliable psychics take advantage of people? Do all dead people become ghosts? What force or energy is created by a spirit? Why should a psychic or medium charge for a spiritual communication? How can a psychic or medium help people? What are the best and worst things about speaking to the dead?



BRILLIANT SCIENTISTS CONTINUE AN EXPLANATION OF THE NEW PHYSICS
We are indeed fortunate to have Dr Adrian Klein and Dr Robert Neil Boyd writing a ground breaking series of articles for us on some fundamentals of the new physics. Dr Klein wrote to us this week that they have just completed an important paper for a very high level academic conference which they hope will yield a first major paradigmatic shift in the approach of the ruling scientific establishment. The importance of this work cannot be overemphasized since as Dr Klein puts it " Without a theoretic alignment, no amount of experimental and experiential evidence will ever break stubborn patterns of denial and misinterpretation that our field of exploration has to ceaselessly confront." This week another fascinating mind-expanding paper "What is Life?" which argues that the evidence shows that all matter has some degree of consciousness and that life is not just a series of physical chemical interactions but are controlled by "Informations provided from outside the given system." THIS HAS HUGE IMPLICATIONS FOR THE MIND-BRAIN DEBATE.

HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY TO THE WINDBRIDGE INSTITUTE for Applied Research in Human Potential.
For the afterlife to be accepted by mainstream science we need a sound theorical basis (see above) and contemporary scientific experimentation. Very few people understand the backbreaking work it takes to write academic papers about mediumship and to obtain funding for ongoing research so this week we were delighted to receive an email from the Windbridge Institute outlining the steady work that their staff have been doing throughout the year. Some highlights include:
* publications featured in the peer-reviewed journals the Journal of Scientific Exploration and the Journal of Parapsychology. (Copies available).
* the results of our research presented at the annual meeting of the Society for the Anthropology of Consciousness at Yale University in March and the annual Alternative Expressions of the Numinous Conference at the University of Queensland in August.
* awarded research grants from the American Association of Electronic Voice Phenomena (AA-EVP) and the Bial Foundation.
Director of Operations Mark Boccuzzi writes that " part of this two-year grant will allow us to continue the screening of mediums who began their multi-step certification process at the University of Arizona. We will be contacting those mediums shortly. We hope to continue the screening of additional mediums in the future. For more information about the intensive 8-step medium screening and training procedure and other requirements as well as a list of certified mediums, see our Certified Research Mediums page."

LUIZ GASPERETTO - BRAZILIAN MEDIUM

In Stanislav Grof's (pictured) 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 dead 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 hands two different paintings 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).
" Read Loyd's full report....

EVP- A MAGNIFICENT AND INSPIRATIONAL TRUE STORY FROM ONE OF OUR SUBSCRIBERS One of our long time subscribers, a retired veterinary surgeon and microbiologist who trained with a Nobel prize winner in medicine, writes of how he became convinced about the afterlife following the death of his beloved wife of 44 years. He followed the instructions of Rob Smith of the Australian Society for EVP and since February 15th 2008 has been able to record 153 messages in French (his first language) in his wife's voice by EVP. Read his story.....

A SWAN IN HEAVEN
Two years before 16 year-old Danny Mandell died from a degenerative metabolic disorder, his mother Terri began developing some unexpected psychic abilities. She had no idea at the time that she was in training for the remarkable experience of receiving messages from Danny after his death, and the resulting dialogs between mother and son form the foundation of a book called “A Swan in Heaven: Conversations Between Two Worlds.” While Danny was alive he was severely disabled and unable to speak. But after death his language was fluent and his words were insightful, inspired and eloquent. Read more...

AFTER DEATH COMMUNICATION: THE DANNY DIALOGUES Terri emailed his week to say that she is setting up a Yahoo interactive
forum in which "channeled information from Danny will be periodically posted to help members understand soul contracts, inter dimensional communication and the afterlife. Members may interact with one another to share their grief experiences as well as their intuitive experiences, supported by channeled messages from Danny. After-death communication is a remarkable tool for navigating the grief process, and through meditation, spiritual growth practices and faith, it is possible for all of us to open a conduit to the higher realms."

MAKE DR DEATH YOUR FRIEND
Michael Tymn suggests a New Year's Resolution:" Make death your friend, your daily companion. Rather than thinking of death as the Grim Reaper, imagine “him” or “her” as Dr. Death, the greatest and wisest teacher and healer you’ll ever have. "Ridiculous," you say? Maybe not. If you are interested in an explanation, click on the link below. " Read more...

FEEDBACK
"
My name is Chris Ulmer and I am from the United States. I receive your email every Friday, and I've got to say I think it's outstanding. You have helped me go from a shallow belief in the afterlife to a knowledge that we really are eternal (I think that's becoming pretty obvious now) and that life has total meaning and purpose. Thank you so much for all the good work you do. I just wanted to tell you about an epiphany I had regarding how totally ridiculous reductionist materialist science is in saying that somehow mind = brain = computer............." .

From last week - the search goes on:

HONORARY’ NOBEL PRIZE FOR PARANORMAL RESEARCH
: Sadly as yet there is no category of paranormal research and consciousness studies in the Nobel Prizes so I’d like to invite you submit your nominations for the award of an ‘honorary’ Nobel Prize for Research into the Paranormal. Please nominate anyone who is extending science to show the world that the paranormal has an empirical objective and repeatable basis and has nothing to do with beliefs. We have had a few nominations but we still have time to highlight the work of all the contemorary scientists who are pioneering the most important field in human knowledge.


YOUR LEGAL QUESTIONS ANSWERED BY VICTOR ZAMMIT: 'SERVICE TO MY REGULAR READERS AND TO THE COMMUNITY': whilst this has nothing to do with afterlife matters, over the many years of doing afterlife research, I received many questions from my regular readers who needed legal advice but did not have the money to go to a lawyer. Accordingly, I have put on the website a special section for the many legal questions/answers (e.g. negligence, defamation, police matters, murder, assault, divorce, Wills, probate, property, claims against insurance co's., leases, marriage rights, medical assault, police radars - and for other, click on archives on the blog) for for my regular readers - and for general readership and information.

BEQUESTS: It is vitally important that professional accredited and registered afterlife researchers be given funding so that they can help the world understand that there is an afterlife. After you have provided for your family in your will consider making a bequest which will bring about ‘LIGHT’ on a global level after you’ve gone. So far, we can highly recommend the following legally registered organizations who will use your funding to benefit humanity:

* The Forever Family Foundation
* Sonia Rinaldi's IPATI- Brazilian based research on ITC
* The American Association of Electronic Voice Phenomena
* The Windbridge Institute for applied research
*
Mark Macy's World ITC- American based research on ITC
* Rhine Research Centre- Institute for Parapsychology
In the future we will include other registered organizations which are doing afterlife research. Please email for details.

AN INSPIRATIONAL ADDRESS
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary..."Listen as Steve Jobs tells his inspirational life story.



MUSIC TO SOOTH THE SOUL: BY PUBLIC DEMAND! I received most convincing requests to play this most brilliant piece of music that will surely melt your heart and soul - but relax and listen to it with your heart and soul. It is just magnificent! It is an angel Chloe Agnew of Celtic Woman singing NELLA FANTASIA.
