As I looked up at eventually led him to a new theory of human the doctor who had revived me, I felt afraid to tell him of this very personal perception. And Seattle pediatrician Dr. Melvin event. To my surprise he asked me if anything unusual happened while I was Morse confessed to having been skeptical initially practically dead. I cautiously described what had happened to me and how I when children resuscitated by him described their had floated above my body and traveled far away, met a light being and later NDEs—but by now Morse has heard so many returned to my body. He said he had studied this phenomenon in medical such stories from his young patients that research- school, and that he knew of other patients with similar experiences. He in- ing the NDE has become a major focus of his troduced me to a nurse who provided me with information, resources, and career, and has fundamentally altered his locations of support groups where I could meet and talk about this if I wanted worldview.

  • Psychomanteum Research 1
    Psychomanteum Research 1 Running Head: PSYCHOMANTEUM RESEARCH Psychomanteum Research: Experiences and Effects on Bereavement Arthur Hastings, Michael Hutton, William Braud, Constance Bennett, Ida Berk, Tracy Boynton, Carolyn Dawn, Elizabeth Ferguson, Adina Goldman, Elyse Greene, Michael Hewett, Vera Lind, Kathie McLellan, and Sandra Steinbach-Humphrey. William James Center for Consciousness Studies Institute of Transpersonal Psychology Palo Alto, California, 94303 USA Psychomanteum Research 2 Abstract A Psychomanteum Process involving mirror-gazing was conducted in a research setting to explore apparent facilitated contact with deceased friends and relatives, and to collect data on the phenomena, experiences, and effects on bereavement. A pilot study with 5 participants resulted in strong experiences and 4 apparent contacts. The main study took 27 participants through a three stage process: remembering a deceased friend or relative, sitting in a darkened room gazing into a mirror while thinking of the person, and finally discussing and reflecting on the experience. Data were collected with pre- and post- questionnaires, a follow-up questionnaire at least 4 weeks after the session, interviews by the facilitators, and two personality measures, the Tellegen Absorption Scale and the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. Contacts with the sought person were reported by 13 participants. Participants reported that a variety of imagery appeared in the mirror, as well as experiences of dialogue, sounds, light, body sensations, and smell. Several specific messages were reported by participants who believed that they were from the sought persons. Twenty-one self report items relating to bereavement were analyzed for changes between pre- and follow-up questionnaires. Statistically significant reductions in bereavement responses occurred over the entire group using a Wilcoxon signed ranks analysis (p = .05 to .0008).

  • The Third Secret of Fatima
    Fatima Apparitional Experiences Dr James Paul Pandarakalam An apparition may provide evidence of the authenticity of its manifestation at a physical site by offering predictions that are to be fulfilled at a later date. One of the distinctive features of the events at Fatima in Portugal in 1917 is the fulfilment in our own time of the predictions made. Ever since the occurrence of these famous visionary experiences, among observers and believers there has been an exponential interest in the third secret. Voice phenomena observed during Marian apparitions such as those at Fatima have analogies with externally controlled recurrent spontaneous psychokinetic (RSPK) activity, and visionary experiences involving RSPK or RSPK-like activity may be instances of apparitions at a physical site. The voice extinction and sensory disconnection demonstrated in the Fatima percipients could be explained as psychokinetic-like activity on the part of the apparition. True apparitional experiences prove the existence of psi-like phenomena and discarnate survival. In general, paranormal phenomena involve non-physical, physical and social events. Only physical events are accessible to scientific study. Marian apparitional experiences may be subjected to scientific analysis, but Marian apparition is beyond the scientific realm. The Fatima apparitional events inform research into post-mortem existence and offer a complementary insight into our current knowledge of the discarnate realm. Marian apparitions may be regarded as an antidote to the afflictions of the present century. Introduction Several hundreds of apparitional experiences have been claimed to have occurred in the twentieth century. Marian apparitional experiences have been reported in nearly all the continents of the world in the later half of that century.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. THE IMPACT OF POST DEATH COMMUNICATION [PDC] ON BEREAVEMENT Brigid McCormick, B.A. Thesis completed to fulfill the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS MASSEY UNIVERSITY May 2014. “There are universal reports of these post-mortem phenomena . They are based in the main on psychic facts which cannot be dismissed out of hand. Very often the fear of superstition, which strangely enough, is the concomitant of universal enlightenment, is responsible for the hasty suppression of extremely interesting reports which are then lost to science” (Jung, 1964b, p. 316). ii Abstract Post Death Communication (i.e. perceived communication from someone who has died), has been part of the human experience since the earliest recorded history, and it is now known to be highly beneficial to almost all bereaved individuals who experience it. Despite the fact that PDC appears to be common to all cultures and is usually very welcome and very healing, it has been judged by Western society in a negative way and as a result, fear of negative judgment has meant that experients are hesitant to discuss it. Using Thematic Analysis, this study conducted a small qualitative investigation into the experience of PDC among New Zealand and North American populations. In a semi-structured interview, conducted face to face where possible, and by Skype where necessary, 14 participants aged between 52 and 80 years were asked about the nature of their PDC experience, how they felt about it, and how it impacted their bereavement.

  • THE AFTERLIFE AS a PATHWAY to a MORE PURPOSEFUL LIFE by CARLTON J. BULLER a Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the R
    THE AFTERLIFE AS A PATHWAY TO A MORE PURPOSEFUL LIFE by CARLTON J. BULLER A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF METAPHYSICAL SCIENCE July 14, 2015 On behalf of the Department of Graduate Studies of the University of Metaphysics this submission has been accepted by the Thesis Committee. _________________________________________ Thesis Supervisor _________________________________________ Dean _________________________________________ President Acknowledgements From the tender age of five, until I was eleven years old, while suffering multiple types of abuse at the hands of perpetrating adults, my spirit somehow knew that it had to separate from my body in order to protect me from the physical and emotional pain. And I began traveling out of my body in my dreams and while awake. The abuse had forced me through the doorway of astral projection and into the reality of other parallel existences. As I grew up and matured, my natural curiosity about these and other related topics moved me to further investigate possibilities beyond our physical reality. That ultimately led to multiple paranormal experiences. These culminated with a dream where I traveled out of my body and witnessed an event in real time as it happened. This ultimately convinced me that there is indeed life beyond our physical manifestation, and for that I am extremely grateful. Am I grateful to my perpetrators for the abuse they precipitated upon me? That is an extremely difficult case to make. But everything is connected. There are no accidents. And there is no longer any doubt in my mind that everything that has unfolded in my life happened the way it did in order to make me who I am.

  • Editor's Note
    EDITOR’S NOTE Exploring the unknown via new or re-newed paths in order to better understand the human trajectory is often fraught with challenges. How appropriate or meaningful are our avenues of inquiry? How can we stay open to possibilities yet exercise scholarly acumen? All authors in this volume are aware of such issues yet invite us to think with them and dialogue about such matters. As always, we provide contact information for direct communication with authors and, as mentioned in earlier volumes, are open to creating a forum space for further inquiry, especially on articles that generate much dialogue and varying responses and perspectives. Arthur Hastings, our book review editor, opens this issue of the Journal with a report of his ongoing and extended research on an assistive means (a restricted sensory environment called a psychomanteum booth) to ease the bereavement process and help healing from a loss, possibility facilitating the experience of after-death contacts with the deceased. Accounts of making contact with the deceased are reported in the research findings, as are statistically significant healing benefits (reduction in measures of bereavement). Such shifts, however, did not seem to always require presence of the deceased. Stressing the phenomenological (rather than purely objective) nature of such experiences, he urges the reader to think with him in further pursuing this terrain. From Australia, Karl Hanes then accompanies us into the unfolding of a case of an unusual experience which he invites us to ponder. For this feat, embracing many forms of knowing may be called upon. Charles Tart, respected author and long-time editorial board member, in offering a postscript of his reflections and experience while reading the article, reminds the reader about the importance of honoring, studying, and evaluating what might challenge one’s sense of the ways things are … or supposed to be.

  • A Search for the Truth of Near Death Experiences
    A Search for the Truth of Near Death Experiences Dr James Paul Pandarakalam Introduction The existence of so-called Near Death Experiences (NDEs), in which dying people report having mystical sensations before being resuscitated, is now widely accepted by cognitive scientists as a respectable research idea. Over the years, various explanations have been put forward for the positive variety of NDEs. Early investigators attached the importance of the transcendental aspects of this experience but these views were challenged by biological explanations. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the different interpretations from a biological and parapsychological perspective as well as in the light of the newer observations of particle physics. Selective survey of the may also help to form a framework for future research. Features of cluster analysis and a case example are given. Cultural differences are noted. Biological and transcendental interpretations have obvious pitfalls. An intermediate position is advanced here – that the NDE is a combination of individual hallucination and true extra sensory perception. The current models of mind are inadequate to explain NDEs. Study of NDEs is useful for a deeper understanding of mind. NDEs can be better explained if the existence of an extra-cerebral component is conceptualised in association with the brain even though this non-physical aspect is unobservable with the present day instrumentation. Characteristics of the NDE NDEs are experienced at the moment of imminent or anticipated death but before biological death. They are triggered by various situations such as accident, life-threatening illnesses, suicide attempts and operations or births. Near-death experiencers (NDErs) are quite often clinically dead.

    NeuroQuantology | June 2015 | Volume 13 | Issue 2 | Page 154-159 154 Parra and Villanueva., Psi-conductive state of consciousness Exploring Psychomanteum as a Psi-Conducive State of Consciousness Alejandro Parra and Jorge Villanueva ABSTRACT The mirror gazing procedure termed the “psychomanteum” was developed by the world renowned psychiatrist Dr. Raymond Moody. It was designed to facilitate reunion experiences with deceased individuals, as a means of addressing the feelings surrounding bereavement. Although the modern psychomanteum is not normally employed to seek extra-sensory perception (ESP) information about the future, it may be that the psychomanteum is psi-conductive. For example, there are many similarities and differences between psychomanteum experiences and accounts of hypnagogic/hypnopompic imagery, which is conducive to ESP. The aim is of this paper was to explore whether the psychomanteum technique encourages a psi-conducive state of consciousness, which would result in scoring that is significantly above mean chance expectation (MCE). One hundred and thirty participants (92 females and 38 males; mean age= 47.44) were recruited by announcements in newspapers and our web site. Under psychomanteum condition, psi-hitting was obtained (30.8% above MCE); however, under no-psychomanteum (control) condition, 29.2% was obtained (where 25% was expected). The results differ slightly from MCE in the psychomanteum condition (p= .02, one-tailed) in comparison with no- psychomanteum condition, but no significant differences were found. A number of positive correlations were also found, for instance, participants who attained higher scores on auditory and visual hallucinations tended to demonstrate psi-hitting.

  • Unusual Perceptual Experiences and ESP Under Psychomanteum Stimulation: Imagery/Hallucination Proneness and Schizotypal Personality Measures
    © 2010 AIPR, Inc. Australian Journal of Parapsychology ISSN: 1445-2308 Volume 10, Number 1, pp. 41-59 Unusual Perceptual Experiences and ESP under Psychomanteum Stimulation: Imagery/Hallucination Proneness and Schizotypal Personality Measures BY ALEJANDRO PARRA AND JORGE VILLANUEVA Abstract: Although the psychomanteum, originally designed to facilitate reunion experiences with deceased individuals, is not normally employed to test ESP, it may be that it is psi-conducive. This study aimed to test psi performance in high-scoring participants on measures of unusual perceptual experiences and unusual thinking styles. One hundred twenty eight participants were asked to verbalize their mental impressions as much as possible after psychomanteum stimulation. A number of significant results were found. Participants who scored high on visual imagery, visual, auditory, and tactile hallucination, tended to psi-hit. Only the high-scoring visual imagery, visual and tactile hallucination groups (but not the auditory hallucination group) scored significantly higher than the low-scoring groups. Given that suggestion may have a causal role in the experience of anomalous perception, it is plausible that the incidence of psi in the psychomanteum is a function of explicit suggestions for such experiences presented during the facilitation procedure, which may be augmented by restricted stimulation and dissociation. Keywords: hallucination proneness, hypnagogic experiences, imagery abilities, psi, psychomanteum, schizotypy, unusual perceptual experiences. INTRODUCTION The mirror gazing procedure termed the “psychomanteum” was developed by the world renowned psychiatrist Dr. Raymond Moody. In recent years, a number of researchers have employed psychomanteum chambers to try to facilitate reunions between participants and their deceased loved ones (Hastings et al., 1999; Moody, 1994; Moody & Arcangel, 2001; Moody with Perry, 1993; Radin & Rebman, 1996; Roll & Braun, 1995;).
