When mediumship appears spontaneously, how does one reassure the medium?

How should we explain the "GIFT" to be able to receive the higher vibrations from the spirit guide or loved one if they think they may be hallucinating or hearing things due to a mental imbalance instead of actually understanding and believing that they are "sensitive" to the frequencies that allow them to receive the vibrations and therefore can see, feel and/or hear spirit?


All human beings consist of three basic elements, body, mind and spirit and the mind and spirit move with us into the spiritual world when we ‘die’. The spirit is sensitive to atmosphere on earth through a mechanism known as the aura. Most people have experienced for instance the feeling that they will like or dislike a person they have met for the first time and know nothing about. Sometimes too, one feels the atmosphere in a room or an old building and it can feel very unpleasant. This is the aura interacting with the aura of the other person and in the second instance with the impressions of highly emotive events that have taken place and are imprinted on the auric field of the room. In a few people this sensitivity extends to being aware of ‘information’ communicated from people in the spiritual world. When this occurs the spirit, through the mind, makes our physical brain aware of this communication, sometimes in the form of words, sometimes pictures and sometimes feelings. Because only a relatively few people have this kind of sensitivity, they themselves naturally feel they are in some way weird or unbalanced, perhaps even in need of psychiatric counselling. It sometimes creates fear in them because of this. This type of sensitivity is called ‘natural mediumship’.

Just as the human spirit naturally survives what we call death, (everybody, not just those who believe in certain religious dogma.) communication between ourselves and those who have passed beyond our world into the spiritual world is equally natural and has been going on since man’s earliest days. There is nothing weird about it and it is a tragedy that the medical and psychological professions have given a different impression. This is due to the fact that their training takes account only of the physical nature of humanity and ignores the mind and the spirit completely. Psychiatrists say they study the mind but in reality they study the brain (which is physical) for they do not accept the reality that mind and brain are two entirely different things.

If you are a person who has this gift, for make no mistake it is a gift, try not to be afraid. Talk about your experiences with someone in your family or a friend who will be sympathetic and not condemnatory. You should also test the information you seem to have been given in this way. If it is genuine, there should be a way to confirm that what you have seen, been told or felt so keenly. Let me give an example:

A friend of mine who is a ‘natural medium’ became aware in her meditations of a Japanese man who claimed he had been a Samurai many years before on one of the smaller Japanese Islands. Knowing that Samurai’s were very well known within their communities, she decided to write to the island concerned and ask about this man, for he gave a name to her. Not only did the island authorities confirm the man had lived when he claimed but they sent a picture of him. This Samurai spirit had been seen by a clairvoyant friend, so my friend the medium decided on a test. When she knew the clairvoyant was about to visit her she displayed the picture in the room where they would meet. Immediately he saw the picture, the clairvoyant exclaimed. “That’s him! That’s the man I saw!

Be willing to talk, within your mind, to whoever appears to be giving you these impressions etc. If you are really too upset and frightened to do that and do not want to be involved then speak in your mind to the person and ask them please to leave you alone. In order to ‘talk’ like this to the people from the spiritual world, sit quietly where you are not likely to be disturbed and imagine yourself surrounded by a beautiful light. As this light becomes more real to you, start ‘speaking’ in your mind to the person concerned. Don’t worry that you do not know their name. Also do not worry that sitting in the stillness in this way might be dangerous to you, it isn’t. By using the light in the way suggested, you are ensuring that only those whose intentions are honest and genuine can draw close to you. Light is a wonderful thing – it completely dissolves darkness, which cannot exist in its presence. This applies to physical light and darkness and that of mind and spirit equally.

You have been chosen to be one of the few people able to bring true comfort to the bereaved by proving their loved ones live on and by your evidence, to persuade others of the truth that all life is eternal and of the spirit. People would be infinitely happier and healthier were they able to accept unconditionally that they are spirit as well as physical and live this life in the knowledge of the one that is to come. It is a service to your fellow human beings that is second to none.
