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.

Notice Board for this Area

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".

Is that what compassion is?

Yes. Compassion is the awareness of a deep bond between yourself and all creatures. But there are two sides to compassion two sides to this bond. On the one hand since you are still here as a physical body you share the vulnerability and mortality of your physical form with every other human and with every living being. Next time you say "I have nothing in common with this person remember that you have a great deal in common: A few years from now - two years or seventy years it doesn't make much difference - both of you will have become rotting corpses then piles of dust then nothing at all. This is a sobering and humbling realization that leaves little room for pride. Is this a negative thought? No it is a fact. Why close your eyes to it? In that sense there is total equality between you and every other creature. One of the most powerful spiritual practices is to meditate deeply on the mortality of physical forms including your own. This is called: Die before you die. Go into it deeply. Your physical form is dissolving is no more. Then a moment comes when all mind-forms or thoughts also die. Yet you are still there - the divine presence that you are. Radiant fully awake. Nothing that was real ever died only names forms and illusions. The realization of this deathless dimension your true nature is the other side of compassion. On a deep feeling-level you now recognize not only your own immortality but through your own that of every other creature as well. On the level of form you share mortality and the precariousness of existence. On the level of Being you share eternal radiant life. These are the two aspects of compassion. In compassion the seemingly opposite feelings of sadness and joy merge into one and become transmuted into a deep inner peace. This is the peace of God. It is one of the most noble feelings that humans are capable of and it has great healing and transformative power. But true compassion as I have just described it is as yet rare. To have deep empathy for the suffering of another being certainly requires a high degree of consciousness but represents only one side of compassion. It is not complete. True compassion goes beyond empathy or sympathy. It does not happen until sadness merges with joy the joy of Being beyond form the joy of eternal life.

Toward A Different Order Of Reality

I don't agree that the body needs to die. I am convinced that we can achieve physical immortality. We believe in death and that's why the body dies.

The body does not die because you believe in death. The body exists or seems to because you believe in death. Body and death are part of the same illusion created by the egoic mode of consciousness which has no awareness of the Source of life and sees itself as separate and constantly under threat. So it creates the illusion that you are a body a dense physical vehicle that is constantly under threat. To perceive yourself as a vulnerable body that was born and a little later dies - that's the illusion. Body and death: one illusion. You cannot have one without the other. You want to keep one side of the illusion and get rid of the other but that is impossible. Either you keep all of it or you relinquish all of it. However you cannot escape from the body nor do you have to. The body is an incredible misperception of your true nature. But your true nature is concealed somewhere within that illusion not outside it so the body is still the only point of access to it. If you saw an angel but mistook it for a stone statue all you would have to do is adjust your vision and look more closely at the stone statue not start looking somewhere else. You would then find that there never was a stone statue.

If belief in death creates the body why does an animal have a body? An animal doesn't have an ego and it doesn't believe in death....

Clairvoyance Oxford

"We plunged into the jungle and had walked on for about an hour without much success when Cameron who happened to be next to me stopped suddenly turned pale as death and pointing straight before him cried in accents of horror:

"'See! see! merciful heaven look there!'

"'Where? what? what is it?' we all shouted confusedly as we rushed up to him and looked round in expectation of encountering a tiger- a cobra- we hardly knew what but assuredly something terrible since it had been sufficient to cause such evident emotion in our usually self-contained comrade. But neither tiger nor cobra was visible - nothing but Cameron pointing with ghastly haggard face and staring eyeballs at something we could not see.

"'Cameron! Cameron!' cried I seizing his arm 'for heaven's sake speak! What is the matter?'

"Scarcely were the words out of my mouth when a low but very peculiar sound struck on my ear and Cameron dropping his pointing hand said in a hoarse [Page 129] strained voice 'There! you heard it? Thank God it's over!' and fell to the ground insensible.

"There was a momentary confusion while we unfastened his collar and I dashed in his face some water which I fortunately had in my flask while another tried to pour brandy between his clenched teeth; and under cover of it I whispered to the man next to me (one of our greatest sceptics by the way) Beauchamp did you hear anything?'

'Why yes ' he replied ' a curious sound very; a sort of crash or rattle far away in the distance yet very distinct; if the thing were not utterly impossible I could have sworn it was the rattle of musketry'.
