RELS 3811 Outline
R.S. 3811 Contemporary Alternative Spirituality – F2013 Fall 2013 Instructor: Dr. Jennifer Porter Time Slot 20: Tues/Thurs 3:30-4:45 Email: [email protected] Room: A3017 Office: A5009 Office Hours: Wed 9 - 10 am; Tues/Thurs 9 – 10:30 am, or by appointment Course Description: This course provides an in-depth examination of one or more forms of contemporary alternative spirituality as practiced in North America. In order to gain understanding of these alternative spiritual movements, we will draw upon social scientific studies of these groups, as well as explore images of these groups and their religious practices in both history and popular culture. This year, we will be focusing on the religion of Spiritualism, with a focus on the theme of "Spirits, Spirit Possession, and Spirit Communication." Spirit possession and talking to the spirits of the dead represent age-old religious themes that are undergoing revitalization in the modern world, with what appears to be a mainstreaming of Spiritualist beliefs within popular culture. This course will explore both the historical roots of Spiritualism, and the modern prevalence of Spiritualist themes in television shows such as Ghost Whisperer, Medium, and Ghost Hunters. Texts: No textbook: required readings are available online. Requirements: Assignment and Discussion #1 15% Assignment and Discussion #2 15% Assignment and Discussion #3 15% Final take-home exam 55% Assignments and Discussion: This class is going to follow a mixed lecture/discussion format. Although I will be giving lectures to cover the topics we will be studying in the class, these lectures will be interactive: you are encouraged and expected to come prepared by having read the assigned readings, and to have comments and questions relevant to the topic ready to contribute in class. -
Virtual Spirituality: the Negotiation and (Re)-Presentation of Psychic-Spiritual Identity on the Internet
Virtual Spirituality: The Negotiation and (Re)-Presentation of Psychic-Spiritual Identity on the Internet Tamlyn Ryan Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2012 Department of Sociology University of York Abstract This research is an examination of how people engaged in psychic and spiritual interests use the internet to participate as a group through social media. Exploring how individuals take advantage of the opportunities afforded by the internet to pursue their interest in psychic spirituality reveals different ways of participating and interacting online. The ways in which individuals present their psychic-spiritual selves online, how they negotiate their online identities and make sense of their culture, is also examined. Using an eclectic methodological approach, this research used a combination of ethnographic methods and autoethnography to explore online psychic-spiritual culture. Documentary analysis of website text and images, together with participant observation, both covert and overt, were used to examine websites. Facebook interaction and psychic readings in online discussion board forums based on psychic-spiritual interests were analysed using discourse analysis. Autoethnographic self-reflections were also collected and analysed in order to capture an intrapsychic perspective of psychic reading culture. It was found that psychic practitioners use their websites to communicate the message that they are credible psychic readers whilst Facebook was found to be a site in which, through a delicate interplay of activity and performance, identity is constructed through interaction between the psychic reader and their Facebook friends. Psychic-spiritual discussion board forums meanwhile are sites of situated learning in which learner psychic readers learn to become appropriate members of the psychic- spiritual milieu. -

Havant Spiritualists
Volume 3, Issue 4 Psychic News—the end? Autumn 2010 Psychic News has been reporting on spiritual and psychic matters since 1932, and is the world's longest-published newspaper of its kind. First published on 28th May 1932, it had subscribers in 28 countries. The newspaper was founded by Maurice Barbanell, who was reported to have been inspired by spirit guides to call it Psychic News. Also involved at the start were famous Fleet Street journalist and Spiritualist Hannen Swaffer, and Arthur Findlay, Spiritualist, scholar and stockbroker. The last issue was published at the end of July, but is not known if there is likely to be a re-launch in a different format. It is also not known if PN’s publisher, Psychic Press (1995) Ltd will continue to sell its other publications, as it will go into liquidation on 15 September. Early in 2009, PN received a generous donation from the Arthur Findlay College so that it could expand and, in the words of editor, Susan Farrow, “… return to its rightful place as a vibrant and committed international ambassador for Spiritualism”, but in a little more than a year PN is no more. It has been difficult to maintain sales over the years, the costs involved in producing the weekly newspaper exceeded the profits made from its sale. So, even after the recent changes, the familiar IRITUALISTS’ NATIONAL UNION paper will no longer appear in churches and other outlets around the world. Hopefully the SNU, nationally or regionally, will consider filling the void with information and news being made available to those, like us, who produce our own newsletter. -

Philosophy of Life - General Page 1 of 14
17.0 Philosophy of Life - General Page 1 of 14 17.0: Philosophy of Life - General A Philosophy of Life, in an informal sense, is a collection of those ideas which we have about the process of living. Collectively, these generate a significance and meaning to our life. It helps us to have a view on questions such as "Why are we here?", “ Why am I here?”, "What is life all about?", and "What is the purpose of existence?" and topics, for example, covering God, the soul, reincarnation, karma, good and evil, the spirit world, free will, and subjects such as religion, science, and philosophy. Paul Brunton expressed his dilemma as: 1 'When I look abroad, on every side I see dispute, contradiction, distraction. When I turn my eye inwards, I find nothing but doubt and ignorance. What am I? From what cause do I derive my existence? To what condition shall I return? I am confounded with these questions. I don’t propose that you will be able to put precise answers to all these fundamental questions but you will, with the help of the sections and chapters in this book, be able to have a real view on each of them – and many more. I have used the term ‘Philosophy of Life’ rather than ‘Faith’ or ‘Belief System’ because what we all need is an integrated set of truths which cover every aspect of life and which guide us in everything, whether material or spiritual, that we think, say, and do. As the Rev. Henry Keane wrote in the introduction to ‘A Primer of Moral Philosophy’: 2 Philosophy is an attempt to explain things by their causes or first principles. -
09 Mediumship Powerpoint.Pptx
Mediumship in Spiritualism Mediumship or “message work” • Mediumship is the raison d'être of Spiritualist religious services • The mediumship por;on of the service is frequently referred to as the "proofs" por;on of the service. • Spiritualist services frequently last 2-3 hours. Healing usually takes up less than forty minutes, followed by a lecture, hymns, announcements, and then finally "message-work." • The length of ;me spent on message work varies depending on the number of working mediums, but usually consumes half of the total ;me spent at the service. • While people frequently arrive at the service late to miss the healing por;on, congregaon members almost never leave before message work begins, and almost never leave before it is over. Spiritualist messages • Directed messages • General messages • Asking permission to “come into your vibraon” • Asking confirmaon of the spirit iden;ty • Content of messages – proof of con;nued existence; expressions of love, concern, advice, etc. Mediumship development • Learning mediumship involves three things: – physical exercises in breathing and posture • Feet flat on floor, hands open and up on thighs, back straight • Breathe in for count of 4, out for count of 4 – mental exercises in visualizaon and concentraon • "Just pretend you are imagining your spirit guide. Just pretend you are imagining, and look with your third eye. What do you see? Do you see a man? A woman? What does he look like? What do you see?” – verbal exercises in ar;culaon The language of mediumship • Manifestaons of the Spirit
