News on Physical Mediumship in your area.

Pathway to Spirit, via Joan Hughes is committed to promoting physical mediumship.  Over the coming months we intend to expand the website to include articles on physical mediums, some well known, for example , and other mediums, less well know.

These county pages will be devoted to local groups where physical mediumship is of interest, and also provide a place for publication of physical circle activity.

Please feel free to send us an update from you circle's activities and let us have any news or articles you think relevant to physical mediumship.  Contact Joan Hughes for advice on sitting in physical circles.

Nothing to post for this area as yet.  In the meantime here is an extract from one of my favorite books, "The Power of Now".

What is the greatest obstacle to experiencing this reality?

Identification with your mind which causes thought to become compulsive. Not to be able to stop thinking is a dreadful affliction but we don't realize this because almost everybody is suffering from it so it is considered normal. This incessant mental noise prevents you from finding that realm of inner stillness that is inseparable from Being. It also creates a false mind-made self that casts a shadow of fear and suffering. We will look at all that in more detail later.

The philosopher Descartes believed that he had found the most fundamental truth when he made his famous statement: "I think therefore I am." He had in fact given expression to the most basic error: to equate thinking with Being and identity with thinking. The compulsive thinker which means almost everyone lives in a state of apparent separateness in an insanely complex world of continuous problems and conflict a world that reflects the ever-increasing fragmentation of the mind. Enlightenment is a state of wholeness of being "at one" and therefore at peace. At one with life in its manifested aspect the world as well as with your deepest self and life unmanifested - at one with Being. Enlightenment is not only the end of suffering and of continuous conflict within and without but also the end of the dreadful enslavement to incessant thinking. What an incredible liberation this is!

Identification with your mind creates an opaque screen of concepts labels images words judgments and definitions that blocks all true relationship. It comes between you and yourself between you and your fellow man and woman between you and nature between you and God. It is this screen of thought that creates the illusion of separateness the illusion that there is you and a totally separate "other." You then forget the essential fact that underneath the level of physical appearances and separate forms you are one with all that is. By "forget I mean that you can no longer feel this oneness as self-evident reality. You may believe it to be true but you no longer know it to be true. A belief may be comforting. Only through your own experience however does it become liberating.

Thinking has become a disease. Disease happens when things get out of balance. For example there is nothing wrong with cells dividing and multiplying in the body but when this process continues in disregard of the total organism cells proliferate and we have disease.

Note: The mind is a superb instrument if used rightly. Used wrongly however it becomes very destructive. To put it more accurately it is not so much that you use your mind wrongly - you usually don't use it at all. It uses you. This is the disease. You believe that you are your mind. This is the delusion. The instrument has taken you over.

In the same class we may put those - chiefly Orientals - who gain some temporary sight only under the influence of certain drugs or by means of the performance of certain ceremonies. The ceremonialist sometimes hypnotizes himself by his repetitions and in that condition becomes to some extent clairvoyant; more often he simply reduces himself to a passive condition in which some other entity can obsess him and speak through him. Sometimes again his ceremonies are not intended to affect himself at all but to invoke some astral entity who will give him the required information; but of course that is a case of magic and not of clairvoyance. Both the drugs and the ceremonies are methods emphatically to be avoided by any one who wishes to approach clairvoyance from the higher side and use it for his own progress and for the helping of others. The Central African medicine-man or witch doctor and some of the Tartar Shamans are good examples of the type.

Those to whom a certain amount of clairvoyant power has come occasionally only and without any reference to their own wish have often been hysterical or highly nervous persons with whom the faculty was to a large [Page 47] extent one of the symptoms of a disease. Its appearance showed that the physical vehicle was weakened to such a degree that it no longer presented any obstacle in the way of a certain modicum of etheric or astral vision. An extreme example of this class is the man who drinks himself into delirium tremens and in the condition of absolute physical ruin and impure psychic excitation brought about by the ravages of that fell disease is able to see for the time some of the loathsome elemental and other entities which he has drawn round himself by his long course of degraded and bestial indulgence. There are however others cases where the power of sight has appeared and disappeared without apparent reference to the state of the physical health; but it seems probable that even in those if they could have been observed closely enough some alteration in the condition of the etheric double would have been noticed.

Those who have only one instance of clairvoyance to report in the whole of heir lives are a difficult band to classify at all exhaustively because of the great variety of the contributory circumstances. There are many among them to whom the experience has come at some supreme moment of their lives when it is comprehensible that there might have been a temporary exaltation of faculty which would be sufficient to account for it.

In the case of another subdivision of them the solitary case has been the seeing of an apparition most commonly of some friend or relative at the point of death. Two possibilities are then offered for our choice and in each of them the strong wish of the dying man is the [Page 48] impelling force. That force may have enabled him to materialize himself for a moment in which case of course no clairvoyance was needed; or more probably it may have acted mesmerically upon the percipient and momentarily dulled his physical and stimulated his higher sensitiveness. In either case the vision is the product of the emergency and is not repeated simply because the necessary conditions are not repeated.

There remains however an irresolvable residuum of cases in which a solitary instance occurs of the exercise of undoubted clairvoyance while yet the occasion seems to us wholly trivial and unimportant. About these we can only frame hypotheses; the governing conditions are evidently not on the physical plane and a separate investigation of each case would be necessary before we could speak with any certainty as to its causes. In some such it has appeared that an astral entity was endeavouring to make some communication and was able to impress only some unimportant detail on its subject - the useful or significant part of what it had to say failing to get through into the subject's consciousness.

In the investigation of the phenomena of clairvoyance all these varied types and many others will be encountered and a certain number of cases of mere hallucination will be almost sure to appear also and will have to be carefully weeded out from the list of examples. The student of such a subject needs an inexhaustible fund of patience and steady perseverance but if he goes on long enough he will begin dimly to discern order behind the chaos and will gradually get some idea of the [Page 49] great laws under which the whole evolution is working.

It will help him greatly in his efforts if he will adopt the order which we have just followed - that is if he will first take the trouble to familiarize himself as thoroughly as may be with the actual facts concerning the planes with which ordinary clairvoyance deals. If he will learn what there really is to be seen with astral and etheric sight and what their respective limitations are he will then have as it were a standard by which to measure the cases which he observes. Since all instances of partial sight must of necessity fit into some niche in this whole if he has the outline of the entire scheme in his head he will find it comparatively easy with a little practice to classify the instances with which he is called upon to deal.
