WHAT HAPPENS TO A CLOSED-MINDED SKEPTIC AFTER DEATH? Silver Birch, an afterlife entity with high credibility was asked “What were the feelings of an international man like H.G. Wells, an anti-Spiritualist and a life-long Rationalist, when he passed on and found himself in a spirit world in which he did not believe?”

Afterlife intelligence, SB, “Wells … is a great soul, unfortunately blinded by a large intellect … the spirit life was a tremendous shock to individuals like Wells and they had to face processes of ‘adjustment.’ It is a complete overthrow of a lifetime of philosophy and they cannot understand it …. They think there must be something wrong with the universe because it does not agree with their conception, which they had ‘proved’ most ‘logically’ and most ‘scientifically.’ And so the ‘adjustments’ have to be made and there are long argument and discussions.” (Note carefully: the answer does not explain what is meant by H.G Wells having to face ‘processes of adjustments’. That could mean that H G Wells will stay in the realm of ‘uncertainty’ for an indefinite period of time – until he accepts the inevitable of what there is. Otherwise he stays in the realm of ‘uncertainty.’

REVIEW OF METGAT'S BOOK


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.

ALLISON DUBOIS of television ‘MEDIUM’ sends us a special message - Allison of television series fame, one of the most loved and respected mediums in the world to-day emailed Saturday 3rd January 09: Allison is asking readers in the United States who may have a formal dress they never use to donate it to a good cause. She writes:
“I have recently been drawn to a charity that helps young girls in need. The Florence Crittenton foundation is dedicated to enriching the lives of young people. One of the ways they do this is by acquiring formal dresses that well deserving young girls can wear to Prom to feel like the belle of the ball on that special night. Since these girls don’t have the means to achieve Prom night without your generosity I’m asking anyone with a pretty dress or retired bridesmaids dress to donate it to the Florence Crittenton Foundation. I am donating my dress from the Golden Globe Awards, my friend Adrianne Curry (actress/model) is also donating a dress to the foundation so the girls can feel like the stars that we know they will be. If you’d like to make a difference in a young girls life helping to create a memory and to let them know they matter to you, you can send your dress donation to Attention: Lory Lasica at 715 W. Mariposa St. Phoenix, AZ. 85013 or she can be reached at (602) 274-7318. Thank you for taking the time to touch the lives of wonderful girls who appreciate it more than you will ever know. Allison Dubois.”


SHARON COHEN MEDICAL INTUITIVE
SHARON COHEN, medical intuitive, NDEr, dowser...and a gifted healer. Sharon Cohen received degrees from Loyola University in biology, physiology and dental hygiene. While working as a dental hygienist, she found she was able to smell disease states on her patient's breath, often before they were diagnosed. After surviving a near-death experience, she found herself extremely intuitive as well as very sensitive to energy. She was able to merge consciousness and understand the "truth" of many issues and dis-ease states. Sharon will be the guest speaker at the next meeting of the Chicago branch of the International Assocatiation for Near Death Experiences (IANDS) on Saturday, January 10, 2009 Read more about Sharon

POWELLS BOOKSHOP ONLINE
While we were in Portland Oregon over Christmas we were taken to visit Powell's Bokshop, the world’s biggest bookshop for new and used books of all kinds. Natually I headed for the extensive metaphysical/ afterlife/afterdeath section. There were a number of familiar books – including early editions of Mark Macy’s brilliant books, James Van Praagh and many, many others.

But one book that caught my eye was THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO LIFE AFTER DEATH (by Alpha – Penguin Group U.S.) by Diane Ahlquist. This is a very basic book which has voluminous details about the afterlife. For those starting out and for those who want a lifetime reference about the afterlife Diane’s book is a gem. But then after reading that get on to Mark Macy’s books – as they contain critical and more hard core evidence for the afterlife. Really, if you want to have an advantage over all others on crossing over, these books are most essential. Explore Powell’s Bookshop on line.

PRAYERS FOR PEACE
James Twyman often says that the foundation of his international peace work is found in the peace prayers from the twelve major religions of the world. On October 28, 1986, the leaders of these religions came to Assisi, Italy, the home of St. Francis, to offer the prayers of peace from their traditions. Though his ministry has led to a wide variety of other adventures and peace projects, he still feels that the peace prayers offer a unique opportunity. "They show us one of the ways we're the same, helping us look past all the ways we seem different and alone." Read more...

FEEDBACK
We very thankfully received a number of emails over the holidays very similar to this one:
“Dear Victor & Wendy Zammit:Thank you for your newsletter. I found and have read it during this year 2008. It has brought, perhaps, more encouragement and hope into my life than nearly anything else this year. Blessings on you and yours for this effort to reach out to others around the world and provide vital information and support. Peace Be With You, Jay Davis, Alpine, Texas.”
(Thank you Jay and we thank all those very nice people who sent us these very encouraging wishes.)


MATERIALIZATION CORNER
A colleague alerted me to a video on youtube where some ‘illusionist’ is attacking all materialization séances claiming they rely on simple tricks. These are ignorant amateurs who try to break into the illusionist profession and try to get attention, to get publicity and notoriety. What did this fraudulent illusionist get WRONG? Plenty- with David Thompson's séances:

- music is played to raise vibrations,
- invoking divine protection is mandatory,
- the medium is tied not only in two places but in some TWENTY THREE places,
- the medium’s ankles are tied to the chair,
- the medium’s mouth covered tightly by a piece of rag,
- independent investigators inspect the chair, shoes, hands, feet,
- sometimes female voices are heard,
- materialized loved ones identify sitters where no one else knows of the names of the invited sitters,
- materialized spirits give information later found to be correct,
- materialized loved one recognizes sitter and incidents when living on earth.
- investigator is allowed to hold the medium’s tight rag tied around the medium’s mouth and spirit voices are still heard.
- sitters in weekly home circle séances do NOT pay money.

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.

QUESTION: WHY ARE SO MANY MEDIUMS ATTACKED
Victor: Attacking those who are brilliant is historical. Anyone who is anybody has been attacked by those lesser mortals because those who are attacked – mediums, psychics, afterlife researchers and others who have shown they are gifted – in fact are showing the world how out of touch the skeptics are – and also showing that the skeptics beliefs are irrelevant, immaterial and unacceptable – hence those skeptics to save their ego attack the gifted and the brilliant ones. Highly gifted mediums such James Van Praagh, John Edward, Allison Dubois, Lisa Williams and others are always a target for attacks because they make the skeptics’ beliefs look silly and without credibility. But the fact is that those who attack are the real losers and defeatists. Someone sent me an email stating that some unknown attention-seeking entity (reminds me of attention seeking little Miss Piggy) is challenging me for a mere ‘one thousand pounds’ when I have a ONE MILLION DOLLAR CHALLENGE for anyone to rebut the precious objective and repeatable afterlife evidence. These attackers are non-entities, a nobody and one day, I guarantee with absolute certainty, they will remove their skepticism and idiocy and will join us – sooner or later.

AFTERLIFE AWARENESS - (issue discussed in the U.S. last week) is independent to occupations, professions and any kind of work. Genius scientists accepted the afterlife in the past and other scientists kept away from afterlife matters not making any comments. There is absolutely no link between what one does and the level of awareness of the afterlife except that those in religion who are in religion because of the afterlife. This means that one could also be a very highly placed bureaucrat or top police officer or a spy chief or a spy hack or an army general or a lawyer, judge or whatever - some of these professionals will accept the afterlife not because of their professions or occupations but because of their relative spiritual evolvement - and others of course, will not accept anything.

QUESTION: From your many years of experience researching the afterlife who is likely to reject the existence of the afterlife?
Victor: I’d say that there are those who are spiritually backward – and these could come from any occupation and profession – would have a propensity for not accepting the afterlife. Of course, there are many others who consistently abuse their power or who are into systematic corruption, cruelty, cheating and lying for whatever reason – for more personal profit or power or control. These are very likely to reject accountability at the end of their life. It would give them enormous anxiety that they will have to account for the cruelty, manipulation for profit, for abuse of power to oppress others. But we know with absolute certainty that the inevitable Law of Cause and Effect – that is, accountability – is something no one will ever be in a position to escape from. If you are skeptic and reading this, you will not be exonerated from your negligence on crossing over by stating, “If I only knew …”

GEOFFREY MISHLOVE
Jeffrey Mishlove's career has been guided by dreams, synchronicities, mystical states and their philosophical implications. He has consistently encouraged others to pay attention to these processes in their own lives. Jeffrey has also helped to create a new institution of higher education called "The University of Philosophical Research" that has recently been approved by the State of California to offer a distant learning masters degree in Consciousness Studies. He serves as the dean of programs for this college, and also teaches the course in parapsychology. Mishlove is heading a new social movement for Psychic Liberation. "The time has come to begin to look at ignorance, fear and discrimination with regards to our psychic abilities," he declared. Mishlove went on to explain that all people have psychic potential. "Everybody should feel encouraged to cultivate their own inner intuitive abilities," he said. Further, all people have the power to heal through what he calls Distant Mental Influence. Mishlove concluded, "If people all knew that they had the power to send positive thoughts to other people, to heal each other and to heal our planet, we could begin to really make a difference."
