Mediums We See Dead People

Interesting if very much over the top and seemingly short on any Spiritualist input.

Part 1 is here and you can navigate around 10 parts the embed feature is disabled

What's happening? I went for a look-see at part 1 and was taken to a car parts advertiser. Have you been hacked?

Could've been worse I guess - porn for example

As an aside, I was pointing out to a recent thread contributor elsewhere that mediums and Spiritualists don't 'speak to the dead'.

Pretty pointless exercise, though. No-one took a scrap of notice...

I note that James van Praagh will be touring with Tony Stockwell during the 5th-12th October giving joint demonstrations of mediumship.

This will be James's first visit to the UK.

I found the view of Lily Dale to be the most interesting as well as the interview with Raymond Moody.

I'm not certain about if I expected them to take notice, z - I guess I had hoped someone might....cock-eyed optimist

I watched this doco tonight at a local film night. I found it a very fascinating and entertaining doco. I did, however, get a little annoyed at the lack of distinction between mediumship and psychic work. It was all lumped together as mediumship.

I loved seeing Lily Dale, it looks like such a great place, it made me want to go and visit.

I see 'dead' ... so called people on a daily basis. Natural as breathing and never got my head round why more folk can't. They are as 'here' as we are but their part of 'here' is more flexible than ours is.
We were brought up hearing ... 'the dead... So Called' it was almost Spiritualist vocal tic one I have never lost and would love to see used as widely as it once was. 'The dead.. So Called'. Another was saying Passed Over instead of Died. You could near enough spot a Spiritualist by the way they spoke when I wer a lad.
There is certainly growing trend for psychic work to be conflated with mediumship. I have posted elsewhere about a good psychic working in Blackpool but advertised as a Psychic Medium. Some young mediums seem comfortable in flipping over into psychic during dems telling fortunes and the like. That just wasn't done up to a few years back but it's on the up so maybe TV shows are to blame. That become a medium in a week course at AFC reported in ST recently is advertised again in PN. Now they have cut it down to three days two nights over one weekend. Must be jolly intensive!
Once well respected for its high standards, these days AFC has all the kudos of a backwoods barber college.

Jogged my memory.
Ken could see them,clearly.
Not the first time he nudged my elbow telling me someone had walked past who did not belong in the physical world.
Used to tell me they were no different from us.
Took it as a matter of fact.
Shame he never survived,would have loved this site.

Often watched a baby's eyes,how they shift from side to side.
The sudden giggles....at nothing.

Makes you think. I can understand the PM hobbyists wanting to be able to see what they normally cannot. We get the odd physical manifestation here and still turn the table now and again more from tradition than anything else but as for sitting in a cabinet in the dark for ages. I'd be asleep after five minutes. Angel thingy that fugitive from PM4U was on about PMers on there 'channeling demons' That all sounds a bit too Stephen King for my taste. Still,each to their own eh Joan?

Must admit she did sound nervous.
PM4U was my first port of call but couldn't settle there.
Didn't know an awful lot about PM then,not that I know much now.
The trouble with PM is,we can read and read all about it but will never understand the subject fully unless we experience it ourselves.
Lile a science project at school,nice observing others but need to experience it fully personally,Pete.

from what we understand the physical mediumship is more of a science experiement to some, than a real form of communcation, and they sit in the dark to try and prove existance scientificly.
we believe that someone should develope into a medium first and foremost before trying to perform mediumisitic phenomena.
We believe it is better to grow and develope from psychic to medium and then onto physical medium where possible, that way you can sit in the light and anything that happens is a bonus. there is no point sitting in the dark, as it proves nothing of spirit survival after death.
and we like the title "fugitive" katy.

Interestnig I have the original of that youtube and it was much longer

The doco showed a medium assisting the police to find missing a missing woman/murder victim. I'd be interested to know what the eventual outcome of that part of the film was, as it was filmed in 2005. I'd like to know if the body of the missing woman was found.

I also liked the segment with Raymond Moody. It showed his home-made psychomanteum in his attic at home. Very interesting.

Hi Loneblossom,

I have been looking at the idea of setting up a psychomanteum for a special evening event.

There is a thread about it on the forum
https://www.spiritualismlink.com/t222-psychomanteuma-room-with-a-view?highlight=psychomanteum

Of course what I really want is a communigraph...no problems then with booking mediums
https://www.spiritualismlink.com/t221-communicating-without-mediums-the-communigraph?highlight=communigraph

It would be great to try out a psychomanteum. Even if you didn't 'get anything' it would be nice and relaxing to sit in a comfy chair staring into it.

The communigraph is fascinating also. It could double up as a side table (with or without a doily) when not in use to communicate with Spirit.
