DIRECT VOICE - THE MEDIUMSHIP OF JOHN C. SLOAN

Today I want to continue talking about the first book from my collection:


ON THE EDGE OF THE ETHERIC, OR SURVIVAL AFTER DEATH SCIENTIFICALLY EXPLAINED  BY ARTHUR FINDLAY

I want to point out to you that this book is about the Author's experiences with what is known as a 'direct voice' Medium.  This is where actual voices other than the medium, are heard by people present.  These 'voices' are purported to be those of  spirits and are recognised as friends or family that have died and that are known to the audience. 
The Author, Arthur Findley, satisfied himself that these phenomena were genuine. He regards himself to be very fortunate to have met Mr. John C. Sloan, a 'Direct Voice' Medium.
In the presence of Mr Sloan, 'when conditions were suitable, voices quite extraneous to the medium,' he states,'spoke to me, claiming to be those of friends who, in my ignorance, I had looked upon as dead. These voices are not produced by the medium,and they occur, not only when others are present, but also when he and I ARE ALONE TOGETHER.'

'They are not produced by any means of trickery, and I have come, after years of thought, to believe that those we call DEAD LIVE ON AS MEN AND WOMEN in a duplicate etheric body, and are able to manifest their presence again in this material world of ours....'

He then continues in detail to describe the process that enables the spirits to manifest.

Its mind boggling stuff !!! But fascinating.
Mr Findlay is meticulous in his explanation of the science behind the phenomena, and also takes the reader into a historical background surrounding the subject.

He ends his introduction by stating ;

I WISH TO SAY, WITH ALL THE STRENGTH AT MY COMMAND, THAT THERE IS CONTINUITY OF LIFE, THAT NOTHING IS LOST, AND LIFE IS NO EXCEPTION.'
COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THOSE NOW LIVING IN BODIES COVERED WITH PHYSICAL MATTER, AND THOSE WHO HAVE DISCARDED THEIR PHYSICAL BODIES IS NOT ONLY POSSIBLE, BUT TAKES PLACE UNDER SUITABLE CONDITIONS.'
