Next week's Afterlife Zoom Groups are listed at the bottom of this report and here as well.
COMMENTARY: WHAT IF THERE WAS A SIMPLE WAY TO HEAR A TRANSITIONED LOVED ONE'S VOICE? For more than 50 years, experimenters all over the world have been tape-recording 'paranormal voices'—voices that cannot be heard when a tape-recorder is playing but which can be heard when the tape is played back.
The experimenter turns on the tape recorder and asks a question, leaving a space for an answer. In the background they play a noise source - sometimes mashed up syllables of recorded voice, sometimes an electric noise. When the tape is played back, an answer to the question is sometimes heard. Many have very short messages that sound like loved ones who have died. These voices sometimes use the experimenter's name and answer specific questions.
Many people are already using this method called EVP or electronic voice phenomena to talk daily with their loved ones. No expensive readings, no major investment in equipment, just extreme patience and determination.
COMMUNICATING WITH OUR LOVED ONES IN SPIRIT USING EVP Vicki Talbott is a retired TESOL/Linguistics professor. When her only child Braeden died in a kayaking accident in 2000, they both already knew about the afterlife and EVP. 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. See her website for examples.
Vicki Talbott and Sheri Perl (see next item) will be our guests on the Zoom Global Gathering next Sunday/Monday to share what’s working for them, keeping it simple and encouraging with concrete advice those who are hesitant to try it for themselves.
SHERI PERL AND EVP Sheri Perl has been researching EVP and teaching others to record it since she lost her son, Daniel, to an overdose of alcohol and prescription drugs on July 1, 2008. As a tribute to him, she has started The Prayer Registry. In 2016 she began to record the voices of spirit through electronic voice phenomenon and now does readings for those who need to connect-up with their loved ones in spirit. Listen to some of her voice messages. She has also prepared THE EVP SLIDE SHOW as a guide to help others record their own messages.
EVP: A VALIDATION Successful voice correlations using computer analysis have been made of voices coming through EVP with the voice of the person while previously alive. In a discussion about EVP on Radio Luxemborg, Hans Otto König invited anyone present from the "other side" to say something. Next thing the voice of one of the greatest deceased EVP researchers boomed out, "I am Raudive. I have returned." Computer analysis of the vocal pattern revealed conclusively that the voices of both living and dead were identical. Read more about König's experiments.The evidence for EVP is very difficult to rebut - and with nineteen other areas of evidence it makes it absolutely certain that consciousness continues when the physical body dies. Read more.
CALLING EARTH - DAN DRASIN'S FABULOUS DOCUMENTARY Make the time to watch this wonderful documentary by media producer, filmmaker, photographer, audio producer, and writer Dan Drasin. It traces the development of electronic communication with the deceased through modern electronic technology, initially through voices on a tape recorder (EVP). Later some EVP experimenters received messages via radio, over telephones, on television, on answering and fax machines and computers (ITC).
The footage is incredibly valuable to afterlife investigators as, in many cases, the people who are featured were rarely photographed and have now crossed over.
PARANORMAL PHONE CALLS
During a period of several weeks in 1994, five American ITC researchers received phone calls from fellow researcher Konstantin Raudive who died in 1974. The researchers were George Meek, Mark Macy, Sarah Estep, Dr. Walter Uphoff and Hans Heckmann (a close friend and colleague of George Meek). In each case the phone call mentioned the previous phone calls. Listen to a recording of the call to ITC experimenter George Meek.
German ITC researcher, Adolf Homes, received a text file on his computer in Germany giving details of the phone calls. His computer was not connected to the internet and the message simply appeared on the screen. Read more on Mark Macy's World ITC website (click on Mark Macy and Konstantin Raudive in telephone.. on the right hand side of the page).
A PRIEST WHO RESEARCHED EVP AND ITC
Born in 1931, Father Brune was an expert in electronic voice phenomena (EVP) and instrumental transcommunication (ITC) and all areas of afterlife evidence.
87-years-old when he died, this Catholic priest, who held degrees in Latin, Greek and Philosophy and spoke several languages, wrote over 30 books, including a best-seller called ‘Les Morts Nous Parlent’ (The Dead Speak to Us) on afterlife communication. He was a close friend of all the European pioneers of EVP and ITC including Marcello Bacci, Dr. Ernst Senkowski, and Dr. Anabela Cardoso.
He claimed that he had in his possession thousands of accounts from deceased persons who had communicated with their loved ones through a variety of modern electronic devices. He wrote: "The dead speak and can be taped. I have no doubt about the survival of life after death. Therefore, the day I die shall be the loveliest one of my life". Read Dr. Cardoso's article on Father Brune.
THE POWER OF PRAYING
Scientists slid praying nuns and monks into a brain scanner and watched one region roar to life while another went completely dark. What they found may be one of the most powerful (and completely free) forms of protection against memory loss and dementia ever studied. Some fascinating scientific findings.

Exploratorium - Grief and Growth with August Goforth
August, a licensed psychotherapist recently retired from private practice in New York City, leads a participatory "Exploratorium" where readers of the book "The Risen" will be encouraged to offer ponderings and ideas on grief and growth. Free PDF copies of the book are available here. This group meets on the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of the month.
THE FUTURE IS NOT FIXED
NDE experiencer Howard Storm was told that the future is not fixed:
“We have free will. If we change the way we are, then we can change the future which they showed me. They showed me a view of the future, at the time of my experience, based upon how we in the United States were behaving at that time. It was a future in which a massive worldwide depression would occur. If we were to change our behavior, however, then the future would be different.”
“All it takes to make a change is one person. One person, trying, and then because of that, another person changing for the better. They said that the only way to change the world was to begin with one person. One will become two, which will become three, and so on. That’s the only way to effect a major change.”
Dannion Brinkley also gives the following advice on how people can change the world:
“The quickest way to change the world is to be of service to others. Show that your love can make a difference in the lives of people and thereby someone else’s love can make a difference in your life. By each of us doing that and working together we change the world one inner person at a time.” (Dannion Brinkley)
FINAL EXAMS FOR SPIRITUAL TEACHERS Carefree medium Susanne J. Wilson writes:
"If
Earth is the soul's classroom, then spiritual teachers are now taking final exams. There is a moment where using your voice is a profound act of alignment of your mission with your soul.
Didn't Jesus teach that how we treat the vulnerable is how we treat Him?
When we look at the immigrant, the refugee, the hungry child, or the chronically ill person, we are looking into His eyes.
To speak up for "the less than" is to recognize we are all one spiritual family.
Jesus wasn't silent. He didn't count followers, or client retention, or even money for that matter. He showed us Christ Consciousness as this:
'Love-as-Compassion-in-Action.' Get to it."
FEEDBACK
1) "Thank you. It is always great to have 'confirmation' and hopefully inspire other people to learn the knowledge of what happens after we pass." Lori
2) "I been doing research on Life After Death for many years now, but the highlight of it is your newsletter every Friday. Every week. It reconfirms that I'm on the right path,doing valuable research and the AfterLife is as REAL as Mt.Everest, it is not an hallucination."
Vijay (from Malaysia)
3)
"The skeptic interviewing Jeffrey Mishlove was so typical in finding any way, however ludicrous, to try to say there was another possibility to everything than survival of death. He turned the 'one white crow' theory back to front, even with a whole load of 'white crows' he was not convinced." Tony
and a very special message in Spanish:
"Gracias señores y amigos Víctor y Wendy, porque lo son de verdad, en esto más de 10 años, todos los viernes a cualquier hora los visito con toda mi alma, para aprender un poco más de sus enseñanzas y también la de sus colaboradores tan especiales como el señor William Buhlman, les comento leyendolos esta mañana temprano mis seres amados estuvieron conmigo un ratito me abrazaron con ese amor que arropa todo, lágrimas de emoción, gracias los AMO señores Zammit" Jose.
INSPIRATIONAL MUSIC - FOOD FOR THE SOUL!
"We Consciousness" Shawn Gallaway (Lyric Video) featuring Karen Noe.
After best-selling author Dr. Wayne W. Dyer left the physical plane in 2015, psychic medium Karen Noé began receiving very profound and specific messages from him for his family—and for the world.
Wayne and the We Guides share 33 concepts that make up the We Consciousness —and they all point toward your becoming an instrument of peace. In order to extend peace outside of yourself, you must first feel peace within yourself. You must expect to see peace everywhere, and acknowledge the infinite peace that you are. Then you must live that identity to the fullest. ́
