Spiritual Philosophy
( 39 items )
"All
that is essential for the triumph of evil is that good men should do
nothing" - Edmund Burke.
BELIEFS’
ARE MORE POWERFUL THAN INTELLIGENCE -
WHY SHOULD
THAT BE?
"Question your
beliefs and
if the beliefs don’t make sense –
throw them out or flush them away.
Develop a healthy
empirical rationale for everything –
guaranteed,
you will be hugely better off." This was from my favorite Website of Victor Zammit.
"PHILOSOPHY is another word for the way we think, if you think,
then you too have your own philosophy, so reading about other peoples
philosophy and thoughts will expand your own mind. If you need a reason to share your
philosophy - there it is!" Stella Rodgers

Children
( 28 items )
Children
are more than the future that we actually see or imagine, and we need to be sure that we are giving them the right food
for development in all areas that they deserve, physical, emotional, mental
and spiritual goodness.
How do we do this? By using our own
spiritual 'instincts' so that we can develop and expand, even as they are doing;
the path of progression is a fruitful one, but only if we are open to allowing
our families and others to help us all grow.

The Adult" this is to my child that is all grown up.

Healing Articles
( 44 items )
Quote: "It's about sharing.
You just give what you have to give wherever you go, and you let God
handle the rest." ~ Lindsay Wagner [of 'The Bionic Woman' fame]
Spiritual Healing is for all the levels, and often when we are in the middle of our problems we do not know where those problems originate. For the healers in the spirit world that is no difficulty, they heal on all of the layers of our being, they treat whatever is needed, we only have to ask.
Spiritual Healing works, or quite simply babies and animals would not be healed - and they are! LOVE is the Key to Healing All - and I do mean all of whatever is wrong, simply because love is right harmony, and anything else is not. Amen to that.
When you come into a healing sanctuary you will notice there is a quiet atmosphere, this is because the healer needs to concentrate on the job at hand. No, the healer is not actually healing the patient, s/he is passing on the healing energies from the spirit world. "A healthy attitude precedes a healthy life."
Quote "We are what we repeatedly do; excellence then is not an
act, but a habit." ~ Aristotle

Mediumship
( 16 items )
Mediumship is the connecting of two worlds but without the equipment we usually use to see with! In this section I have put the personal aspect foreword a little more.
Don't forget that opinions are valuable short-cuts when given from the experienced ones, but we all must 'test the spirit' of everything we see and hear, this is what spiritualism is all about - take nothing as 'carved in stone', we spiritualists have no creed or dogma, all is left to your commonsense and intelligence.
I would say that on this section the article 'What is a medium' is best read first, then 'Preparation for the skill' even though you might think you know what a medium is - it's worth revising the actual definition if only to find out what a medium is NOT!
Happy reading!
The possibility of stepping
into a higher plane is quite real for everyone. It requires no force or
effort or sacrifice. It involves little more than changing our ideas
about what is normal.~ Deepak Chopra.

Psychic
( 12 items )
WELCOME to the PSYCHIC Section
The word psychic
(pronounced sai-kik ) from the Greek psychikos "of the soul, mental"
refers to the ability to perceive things hidden from the normal senses through
what is described as ESP (extra-sensory perception).
Psychic abilities are used in mediumship as the instrument only. A psychic is not a necessarily a medium, s/he uses the Human Energy Field / Aura, without the connection to the spirit world. Many people cannot tell the difference, this is why there are strict rules governing the evidential process. Identification of the spirit entity is the first priority, followed by the communication.
THE ILLUSION OF REALITY From the Homepage of Victor Zammit
http://www.victorzammit.com
Even watching a few minutes of
this BBC video by Professor Jim Al-Khalili is
enough to force us to realise that the concept
of a solid materialistic universe is an illusion.

Auras / Chakras
( 11 items )
AURAS are electrical force fields that surround all objects existing in the material world - 'living' and otherwise. AURAS and CHAKRAS
are a natural part of the Human Energy Field, the link to
our ductless glands (endocrine system) and our acess to the Universal Energy Field.
The energies that suround and penetrate the human being are 'seen' or registered by the clairvoyant through their own Chakra system - the healer may use these to watch and/or assist the spirit healers at work. Plants have theirs too! - See book list "Hands of Light".
QUOTE: "We are fuller and better people when we recognise and acknowledge God's hand; we vibrate with joy and gratitude - for God, for the Universe, and for all its creatures with whom we are interconnected in a great field of spiritual energy laden with meaning, order and love." From 'Small Miricles for the Jewish heart'.

LESSONS SECTION
I have moved some lessons from the teaching section to here, and the subject of Circles has gone to the teaching section - as requested. First copy the Questions
and then you will understand the lessons and use them as you go along ...OK? The evaluation form is to be filled out before the Certificate of Attendance is given - or you might not get the much needed 'feedback' for your next classes ... see?
Prayer for the
student: “Dear friends of love
and light in the spirit world, please assist me in all ways to serve you in
seeking the truth for the good of all. Amen.”

Welcome to the Miscellaneous Section - it's an assortment of odds and ends...
The SAGB visit was in 2005 and as far as I know they still do this, so ask at your church when is the next one. Many churches club together to fill a coach.

Poems & Prayers
( 42 items )
God raises
the level of the impossible - Corrie Ten
Boom
This section is made up of various poems, some of which were written
by myself, some by my husband Don many years ago. Yet more came from friends
who have sent them to me when they have been moved.
I have added the opening and closing
prayers for you that are non-denominational, because a church member commented
the other day that it was nice to hear prayers that addressed God in different
ways. It’s not that we think God needs His attention drawing to the fact that
one is speaking – its just respect, as one would be talking to a friend.
'The Angel' is a poem about how
physical life and death are such a short distance apart.
"A Conversation" is from the friends Jim and Lis in Australia.
Audrey Hepburn's Poem is very moving. Happy or thoughtful - they
make you think!
There are so many now that I leave it up to you to find the ones that
will make the difference...
SURPRISE!
When you get to heaven
You will likely view
Many folks whose presence there
Will be a shock to you,
But then keep very quiet.
Do not even stare.
Doubtless there'll be many folks
Surprised to see YOU there.
Anon.

Teaching
( 12 items )
THE TEACHING SECTION
If you have come to
this page you might be in some capacity a teacher already, or starting out as a
willing learner. We all are teachers
in our own way, if only to ourselves on the path of progression. Without
trying, we teach others what to expect of us - and hope not to let them down.
The key to
successful teaching is to overcome the ego and ask for guidance from the Spirit
Guides and Helpers. They too are on their path of learning back to our Maker. In love they serve
us and we them.
QUOTE: "The
best universities of the 21st century will bring together brainpower where it
is, not where it can be institutionalised. The aim must be to create a republic
of the intellect open to all, whose natural constituency will be those who keep
themselves intellectually aware throughout their lives." Sir Douglas Hague, Beyond
Universities: A New Republic of the Intellect, 1991.

Photography / Spirit / Ghost

The history of Spirit Photography goes back as far as photography itself.
The subject is very open to the hoaxer, as you can imagine, but many scientists have gone to great lengths to prevent this aspect - and been amazed!
There are good evidential photographs hanging in the Morley Church near Leeds at Zoar Street.
I was fortunate to be given copies for myself many years ago - and I treasure them.

I'll just give you the Quotes:
Always laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine - Lord Byron
