Old technique revisited: Many of you are aware of the method of spirit photography in which a sheet of photographic film is held against the solar plexus and then developed to reveal pictures from the other side. While this is a relatively old idea, we have seldom seen it effectively executed, we believe, because few people have the necessary chemicals or know the actual procedure. We recently found with interest that Maryse and John Locke of France have used this technique with success. Here is their procedure: “We use glossy black and white photographic paper (Ilford 5 x 7 inch, multi-grade IV paper; Catalogue #176 9881-66 B570). In a darkroom illuminated by a darkroom light (maybe a red light in a bathroom), place a sheet of photographic paper in an envelope made of black art paper and seal so that no light can reach the paper inside. For a group, place names on the paper and on the envelopes. Then place the envelope next to the skin over the Solar Plexus and leave for four to six hours, after which you should remove the paper in the darkroom, and develop and fix the paper using standard chemicals. Again, we used Ilford.”

 

An example of one of the Locke’s work is shown here. The picture on the left is the whole piece of paper, while the one on the right is just the upper-right portion of the paper. In it, you should be able to make out what appears to be a face looking to your right. The Locke’s believe the feature is of one of their guides.

 

Table Tipping. It is rare to see an article on Table Tipping. However, the October 2003 issue of Fate Magazine ran an excellent article about how this method of spirit communication was first used by the author to contact the spirit of a man who had died in her store, and then later, to contact friends and family members on the other side. The author, Debra Johnson, tells how you can learn to “Table” at home.

 

Zero Point Energy. According to Tijn Touber, one of the first scientists to recognize that the Zero Point Field could be the missing link for our understanding of the universe was the Hungarian systems expert Ervin Laszlo. In his book, The Creative Cosmos, Laszlo writes that the field is more than a mass of shimmering energy in the background of our existence. According to Laszlo, the Zero Point Field is an information carrier. “This quantum vacuum is the origin of mind and matter – a blueprint of the universe. Even our own memories are not stored in our brains, but are stockpiled like holographic information in the field. Our brains are mainly receivers and processors of this information. When they resonate with certain frequencies they gain access to specific information.”

Comment: Zero Point Field (ZPF) is much the same concept as Einstein’s Universal Constant and is seen as the energetic difference between the zero energy expected to be found in an absolute vacuum and the energy actually found there. In living systems, the ZPF bears a strong resemblance to the Morphic Field, which is thought to permeate reality and govern the formation of objects of reality, including our physical body. Edgar Mitchell, founder of IONS, proposes a Quantum Holographic field that is at least a kissing cousin to ZPF. Scientists are increasingly recognizing that there is a field of “influence” permeating reality that holds past present and future, our memory and tells our cells how to arrange themselves into our living body. We, as Self, are part of this field and are able to influence its operation even as we are being influenced.

 

While the scientific community is grudgingly sidestepping into accepting the concept of a universal intelligence, few amongst them have embraced the existence of Infinite Intelligence or personal survival, two concepts that are the inevitable result of the existence of the TPF.

 

Advancement of Science Annual Meeting. You may recall from the February 2004 DPE Report that Peter Fenwick has asked twenty-five hospitals to place pictures around their cardiac units to try and prove that Out of Body Experiences are real. At the annual meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, he has told reporters about a scientific study in which the number of women in a clinic in Korea, who conceived after being implanted with fertilized eggs, doubled when groups elsewhere prayed for them.

 

In the same article, it was noted that Robert Morris, a professor of parapsychology at the University of Edinburgh, said that there was evidence that voice, touch and sight were not the only means of communication and that experiments had shown that people who were particularly sensitive could communicate mind to mind.

Meditation is Good Medicine. Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco have evidence that Buddhists are happier and calmer than other people. Tests on their brains showed that the parts associated with good moods and positive feelings are more active, because of the meditation they do. Researchers say that meditation that the Buddhists do can change the amygdale, an area of the brain which controls fear memory and this is why they are less likely to be as shocked, surprised or angry as other people.

 

At the University of Wisconsin, scientists scanning Buddhists’ brains found activity in the left prefrontal lobes. This area of the brain is linked with positive emotions, and self-control. The tests show this area of their brains is constantly lit up, and isn’t just affected when they’re meditating, meaning the effect lasts for a long time afterwards.

Learn to Be Lucky –  We told you last year about U.K. researcher Richard Wiseman who has spent 10 years studying lucky and unlucky people. Wiseman gave lucky and unlucky people a newspaper and asked both groups to tell him how many photographs were inside. He placed a large message half way through the newspaper which read, “Tell the experimenter that you have seen this and win £250.” The lucky people tended to find the message while the unlucky ones did not. Wiseman found that lucky people encounter chance opportunities, while unlucky people don’t. He determined that unlucky people were more tense and depressed and thought that this might be because they expected the worst and that this disrupted their ability to notice what was going on around them.

 

Wiseman has been able to train people to be luckier. He trains people to be open to new experiences and the breaking of their normal routine. He advises, “Spend a few moments each day remembering things that went well. Visualize yourself being lucky before an important meeting or telephone call. Luck is very often a self-fulfilling prophecy.”

It’s more than Laughter. A Japanese study conducted by Dr. Keiko Hayashi shows that diabetics can process sugar better if they laugh during a meal. Laughter has also been shown to help high blood pressure, stimulate the nervous system, heighten the immune system, release natural painkillers and make the heart stronger.

AA-EVP Conference. The American Association of Electronic Voice Phenomena is sponsoring a conference in Reno, Nevada, June 3-6, titled, “Communicating with the Other Side.” Speakers include American EVP pioneer Sarah Estep, The Reverend Robert Egby, publisher of the Parapsychic Journal, Dennis Hauck, author of such books as Haunted Places: The National Directory, The Emerald Tablet: Alchemy for Personal Transformation, Mark Macy, ITC pioneer and author of Miracles in the Storm. There will be workshops, including one lead by The Rev. Barbara Thurman, and of course, we will speak and lead a workshop about Video ITC. Expect to learn how to record Electronic Voice Phenomena and how to use it in your life for spirit communication.
