May 2012 saw the first sitting of a new mediumship development circle in Eastbourne, East Sussex.

We sit in Liz's fully blacked-out converted garage. I sit as the medium with Liz as sitter and we are sometimes joined by other guest sitters.

We treat each sitting as an experiment with no expectations from us and ask our Spirit Team to work with us in the most efficient way to produce evidential mediumship to help us understand ourselves and the bigger picture.

Each sitting is recorded, I transcribe the recording verbatim and include in the final report of the transcript any additional unrecorded experiences that Liz and myself remembered from the sitting.

I publish these reports to give people the opportunity to read or listen to the communications and hopefully increase their own understandings.

I welcome any comments or questions and my contact email is nickp7871@gmail.com

It's up to the reader to make up their own mind as to the source of the communications and phenomena reported and hopefully be inspired to set up a development circle to get their own experiences...

173rd Sitting 19/02/2016


We had the room setup as usual.

Liz did the opening prayer at 8.35pm, turned out the light and put the music on.

I didn’t lose consciousness this week as I recall hearing each tune but I still seemed to be in an altered state.

About 15 minutes after the start Liz reported cotton wool like shapes moving around the room.

50 minutes after the start I began to be controlled.
Liz turned off the music and welcomed the communication as it settled in…

Liz… ‘Welcome friend’

‘Welcome, good evening to you’

Liz… ‘Good evening to you’

‘To welcome, a new time to speak again with you, we always look forward to our opportunities in coming forward and speaking’

Liz… ‘So do we’

‘There is so much that we wish to bring through to you each week, we have a long list of subjects to cover, to break apart and give to you those points of interest which will give you that trigger which will make you think, which will make you consider other possibilities that are available to you. There are stories to be told and as we draw closer we settle on a story that will most interest you for we can feel how you react to each word as it comes through and we know that it will generate thoughts in your mind, ideas in your mind. We can present pictures to you as our words are heard for your mind is conditioned to put pictures to what you hear. You all have the ability to paint for yourself pictures representing the imagination for it is the imagination that we can most easily work with. We try to set it in motion; we try to ignite the imagination in all who hear these words, ignite it in a way that will give to you a platform on which to receive the words that we give to you for imagination can be built upon. Once the imagination has been stirred it will branch out, you will see pictures and ideas immerging. Some will be from your own mind while others can be of our own doing. Imagine a key and feel how it allows your mind to explore for you associate so much with the picture of a key. It can mean so much for you and that will create new pictures in your mind for your imagination has been aroused, you are looking into new ideas, you are looking into new possibilities. Each possibility is compared. See the picture that emerges; see how the key fits in with that what surrounds, that what supports, that what is put in place for a key on its own is merely a start. What do you associate with a key?’

Liz… ‘Opening, unlocking… A gateway, a doorway into a new understanding, into a secret room’

‘Then allow that gateway to open, hold it open, what do you feel is becoming a picture in your mind?’

Liz… ‘It’s a great space, a garden’

‘Imagine yourself in that space, venture forth and explore. What are the feelings that come to you when you are set free in this space?’

Liz… ‘I want to stay there… A place of potential, nothing seems to be fixed’

‘For you have entered into a condition, a condition that is unfamiliar yet at the same time you feel a dim recognition for where you are. You will feel that you have been there before yet this place holds no time, there are no constraints, nothing is holding you, you are free to travel, free to expand. You are unaware of the passage of time. Look up and see the stars for they are not distant they are within your reach. Reach out and grab hold of a shining star. Hold it in front of you, feel the energy that that star gives to you. Watch it expand and fill your vision with light. Become one with that star, allow yourself to shine bright for you are a part of everything, every thought, every picture that you can imagine is a part of you. There is nothing that you cannot touch, there is nothing that you cannot be, there is nothing that you cannot achieve, there is nothing that you cannot know.  When we observe your world we see the inadequacies of those who walk in a self-created fog unable to perceive all that is there, unable to reach out to all that surrounds them. Each person has the ability to do so much more’

Liz… ‘A question I would like to ask is why a great deal of our pleasure comes from our attachment to physical objects, to people or objects or other creations like a tree. A tree trunk is so solid and other people feel solid, other human beings and animals and the Earth and flowers and grass and trees it’s the sensations, the actual perception through the senses, forms such a solid and delightful picture and the sense of touch especially makes things feel solid and real and that a great deal of our appreciation of the physical and our identification with it comes from this and the attachments we form are very solid and very real and we cling to them and to be severed from these attachments, to break these attachments when people go away, when trees are chopped down, when houses disappear, when any of these things happen creates great trauma, great sense of loss and separation but if this is really a very transitory state for us and not at all what we think, not solid at all, why is it that we’re tricked, our senses trick us into this illusion of solidity and make us attached?’

‘You have made a choice, you have sent a portion of what you perceive as yourself, you have made that decision to immerse yourself in a reality, a physical reality knowing that you will become not only a part of that reality but you will become overwhelmed by the reality that you find yourself a part of and it will draw you in, it will become the prime attention of your focus for you will forget your true self, you will feel broken from your true self and that one fragment will reform into what for you is an illusion, an illusion generated by the senses, the physical senses. A tree will become a tree, a wall will become a wall, until you can reconnect with that what placed you inside of your physical world. You will find you will recognise the feelings, you will see a tree as a feeling for you will take from that tree, you will allow the tree to work on your feelings and trigger your imagination. Your physical senses are what hold you to the physical world yet you are also free to explore beyond your physical world’

Liz… ‘So presumably while we are in this physical world the logical assumption is that we are here to explore this physical world’

‘An assumption that has been made, an assumption that has built up since the moment you opened your eyes in your physical world, an assumption that has strengthened as you interacted in your physical world. An assumption that is weakened as you open your eyes beyond the physical world. You have a choice for there is much benefit to be had living a life in a physical world reacting only to the physical surroundings that you have for you can still do much, you can learn and you can teach. The physical world is a wonderful place to live and to learn, to put into play your core being, that what drives you, that what motivates you. You can use that to interact with all that is physical, all that is solid, all that you grow attached to yet at the same time you all have a feeling that there is more to life’

Liz… ‘I think that’s triggered by the fact that the strong attachments we have get broken, we have to let go of them and that we know that our physical life comes to an end. I think those facts, they’re like the openings, the open doorways into other understandings, because that leads to a sense of unsatisfactoriness’

‘You see decay in all that is presented to you yet a part of you holds onto the understanding of everlasting life’

Liz… ‘Yes it’s the feeling that there is something more than just the physical, something goes on and then of course there are glimpses of these other realities but dreams and the other realities can seem very hazy, very insecure in comparison with the solidity of the physical’

‘When you are in a dream, when you are engaged in the unfolding of a story in a dream, then your focus has let go of the solid physical and has begun to explore a new way of interpreting, a new way of seeing, a new way of feeling’

Liz… ‘But much of the time the dream world or the dreams that I’ve had are very weak and insubstantial in comparison with the physical. They lack the vitality, they seem insipid a lot of them in comparison but I guess that’s because my consciousness isn’t fully focused in that dream reality’

‘It is only focused when you are taking part in that dream yet when you return, when you awaken to your physical world you look back on that dream and you will put a new interpretation on that dream for it is not possible to fully understand the structure of a dream when viewed from your physical reality’

Liz… ‘The dream world has the quality of… it’s similar to watching television or films but that they lack that… I suppose one is an observer whereas when you come back to the physical reality it’s like you’re completely, just much more real, much more present, it’s a different quality. If you’ve been watching films and television they can be very absorbing, fascinating but then you switch off the television and you step outside into the garden, into the open sky, into the road, into the street whatever and it has a presence, a dimensionality that the film or the television doesn’t have’

‘Your physical reality has a recognisable feel for it is what you are plugged into at this point yet when you think back to the dreams that you have had you are observing them from your physical reality, you are not in the dream, you are no longer in that dream reality. Only when you wake up in your dream can you begin to understand the conditions of that reality’

Liz… ‘Ah I guess that’s where lucid dreaming comes in, that experience of a heightened awareness in dreams when you actually do wake up in a dream’

‘That is what it is called yes’

Liz… ‘So I suppose by comparison we can be lucid in our daily life’

‘You are always lucid in your physical reality but lucidity in a dream reality can be only temporary and once you have let go of that dream and reconnected with your physical world then that dream can only be a dream’

Liz… ‘So when we let go of the physical, when we finally die, when we’re forced to let go of our incarnation in this physical reality presumably we have a new experience of lucidity in this more spiritual, this other reality, we wake up in another reality, is that how it is… or we begin to wake up in another reality since we haven’t got the physical to return to’

‘You will begin to remember, you will begin to remember fully the true state, the true state of mind where you belong and your physical world will then be the dream that will fade and die. You will become lucid to all that you have achieved, all that you have earnt for yourself, all that you had once before and all you have achieved in your physical lifetime. It will combine and you will see in clarity how you have benefited, how you have added to the greater consciousness’

Liz… ‘From the point of view of a soul who is in the non-physical reality, in the spirit world, the spiritual reality, is it as if those other souls who are still immersed in the physical reality, is it as if they are asleep. The question I’m asking is to the one who has died but who is now lucid, fully lucid and engaged in the spiritual reality, does it seem as if those dear ones, those souls to which it’s connected but who are still living and immersed in the physical reality, does it seem as if they are asleep?’

‘It seems as if they are dreaming’

Liz… ‘Yes, they are in a sleep and dreaming and it’s hard to rouse them’

‘The greater part of them would seem to be asleep from their point of view yet the greater part is very much awake. Try not to…’

Liz… ‘Would it be true to say that the soul that has departed, that is in the afterlife, in the spirit world is actually part of their greater self and it’s this that makes the strong connection, the sense of connection?’

‘Try not to separate these things for you are confusing your thoughts in separating the different states of mind, of one conscious mind, that one conscious mind which is eager to explore all possibilities, all states of mind. A physical reality is one way of exploring, of bringing back information, new information which can be used to generate creative thought. You see yourself as an individual yet you are a part of a greater self, a part that has been dipped into a new experience, a new opportunity for growth’

Liz… ‘It’s very hard as a limited being, as we perceive ourselves to be a limited being, to understand the radiance and the creativity of the whole, ‘the all that is’ We can get glimmerings of it but it’s so beyond our comprehension in our boundaried realities to understand the ‘All’ even the concept of ‘All’ is impossible because by the nature of concept there’s a boundary, it has an edge, it’s contained in something else, our experience in our limited reality in which our consciousness exists at present is one of boundaries, things within things within things, enclosed systems within systems infolded in something larger, contained. So even when we try to comprehend the ‘All’ it still has an edge, a form, a shape, a boundary but logically we know that’s impossible because it can’t be all if it has boundaries, it means there’s something beyond’

‘You are creating for yourself pictures of physical distance. You are creating unnecessary confusion for yourself’

Liz… ‘This doesn’t feel like confusion, this feels like thinking’

‘Slowly, slowly you will begin to understand but there is always a starting point in your mind. You will find you will let go of the physical pictures that you create and you will see beyond into a space that has no limits’

Liz… ‘No shape, no form, the formless. You use the term understanding and yet understanding, the nature of the word you are standing under, rather than entering into, becoming. That’s what’s difficult for us to do I think. Especially while being in the physical to actually let go and enter into the formless. I guess it’s a bit like someone standing on a rock in the middle of the ocean and then diving into the sea because at the moment we have to come back to the rock’

‘You feel safe on the rock as you feel safe with your physical structure that surrounds you. You have built before yourself a fear of letting go for the physical world is your safe home at this time. It is your comfortable place and you do not want to lose that comfortable safe feeling that you associate with the physical world that you see around you yet you are already living in a world beyond the physical. You are no different to us only your focus is different’

Liz… I guess when you consider sea water flows through our veins, that we have the sea in us, we’re made of all things that are in the sea and actually there’s a delight in diving into the sea, just this sense of loyalty to this rock that there must be some reason why we need to come back to the rock but in actual fact the sea is calling to us all the time. We have this connection with the sea, with these deeper areas and our blood calls out to the sea because we know it’s where we belong, where we come from. So it’s as if part of us knows that we belong to the sea, that we have this sense of loyalty to the rock and it’s a hard choice that we’ve made. We have to stick with it, somehow we’ve dragged our self out onto that rock which is a pretty difficult thing to do and we’ve got some business there on the rock but there’s an innate knowledge that at some point we will return to the sea. It’s so much easier in the sea, quite difficult living on the rock’

‘You have created for yourself this rock and the sea that surrounds it. When you sit in your meditations bring this picture to your mind and expand on this picture. Take yourself away from the rock and feel how this affects the way you think, explore the sea, explore all that holds the sea and expand your awareness. Do this in your meditations and it will help with your understanding. It will help you to appreciate the non-physical world that you are a part of… We have reached the end of our session with you this evening, we hope we have built for you something to think about, something on which to expand your ideas for you have said much that interests us and allows us into your own way of thinking. It is always as interesting for us when we come to speak for we get an idea of how restrictive the world of physical matter can be, how it can drag you into a place where you cannot appreciate the true feelings that are building up inside of you yet you are slowly realizing and opening up new pathways to explore and expand your awareness. We give to you a piece of our love to help you with your explorations, widening your own understandings and awareness. Thank you my dear friend may God bless and keep you all, goodnight to you’

Liz… ‘Thank you friend, goodnight and God bless you all’


Liz put the music back on and I felt back with it after a couple of minutes.

Liz did the closing prayer, sent out healing and did our closing down exercise…
                                                                                                                               

172nd Sitting 12/02/2016


We had the room setup as usual.

Last week we had a crackling sound on the recording during the time that the communication was coming through. I thought it may have been caused by my shaking legs which touch the front curtain and could affect the recorder which sits in a pocket on the side curtain so before we started I sat with my legs shaking as they do during the communication for about 30 seconds but no crackling came out on the recording. Also during the communication this week there was no crackling on the recording so we still don’t know why it happened last week.

Liz did the opening prayer at 8.40pm, put the music on and turned out the light.

After about 20 minutes Liz reported moving long clouds in the room like long strands of cotton wool.

A strange noise came out on the recording, it's about 8 seconds in on this clip...


I lost consciousness soon after the opening prayer and woke up about 45 minutes later.

After another five minutes I began to be controlled.
Liz turned off the music and welcomed the communication as it settled in…

‘Good evening, good evening to you’

Liz… ‘Good evening to you friend’

‘Take a step forward on your journey through your physical life, take each step one at a time, pass the point of no return, stand still, stand in the middle of your thoughts, of your ideas. Stand tall, look around, observe all that you have achieved and be thankful that you have given yourself this opportunity, this opportunity to explore. Explore well, leave no stone unturned for you will benefit from a thorough search, a thorough exploration as your life unfolds. Experience everything; take note of how you get to each place, to each situation, to each thought in your mind. Feel how the thoughts in your mind are built up, are birthed in your physical brain to undergo the process of elimination, elimination of unnecessary thoughts until the true pure thought is able to step forward and energise your mind. There is much that is brought forward in your mind from many sources. You cannot tell the source of each thought as it rises to the point of attention for you are dimly aware of the words that come to your mind as you act upon them but when you stop, when you seize that opportunity to bring forward that what has inspired you, you cannot tell from where that thought arose. Always question each thought as it occurs to your mind. Question the feelings that surround that thought, understand for yourself how that thought makes you feel and you will begin to uncover the answer to where that thought has made its way, where that thought originated, the source of that thought. Many ideas surround your mind waiting for the chance to penetrate into your thoughts ideas that have been set in motion by minds that have an interest in your physical life, minds that you shared ideas with before your physical life’

Liz… ‘Do some of those minds make themselves known by dropping names into my mind?’

‘The names are your interpretation of their foot print embedded in your mind. The names are your association to the physical. It is the practise to give a name to all that you regard as entities, as friends, as helpers, as guides. A name gives for you a means of recognition, recognition of what for you is a feeling, a feeling that gives you memory, a feeling that puts you in touch with a controlling entity, an entity that can feed you with words and ideas. Your physical mind is conditioned to accept information as coming from another living, thinking entity. Consider that entity as a combination of you, your extended mind and the physical world that you are a part of. Release that belief that a communication represents another entity. Take your awareness beyond the physical truths; spread your awareness until it reaches impossible situations, impossible imaginings. Create for yourself a story, a story which will be your own story, a story which will explain to you how ideas and communications can and do spread their wings. Dissect the pattern that you have built for yourself and break it apart for you are moving into a new understanding, a new way of thinking. Much work is done each night that you sleep, much is remembered yet much remains untouched by your physical mind waiting for the opportunity to grow, to send down roots and allow your understanding to flourish for a new world of experience waits patiently, a world that you are building for yourself, a world unique to you where you can visit and sample the fruits of your labour. A mask is removed and the eyes will see. Whispers surround you and they will be picked up, they will be heard. Spring time is a time for the new born, the new understandings will hatch, will begin to seep into your mind and your thoughts. Allow each thought to grow strong and take each thought into a new understanding, a new way of thinking’

Liz… ‘What is new about this new way of thinking?’

‘A time will come when you will see the difference in all things. All that you touch, all that you see and all that you hear will have a new understanding, will have a new perspective. As you approach each situation in your life a bridge will form in front of you, a bridge of connection, a bridge of understanding. You will begin to recognise a tightening up of the way you think, of the way you interpret’

Liz… ‘A tightening up?’

‘A clearer more pin-pointed focus on the information that is presented to you for it will no longer seem vague, loose, unorganised, you will see through that confusion, you will see through that mist that is clouding your sight, clouding your thought for you will have a tighter hold on reality, a tighter focus on that what is in front of you, that what you walk towards. Picture yourself in a place surrounded by sounds, sounds that confuse you, sounds that irritate you. Imagine you have a control box that you can operate and change those sounds. Rotate the knob and the sounds will change, you will reach a sound that is harmonious to the way you think, a sound that does not distract you, a sound that enables clearer thoughts, clearer understanding to enter your mind. You will then establish a connection, a connection to your greater self and all minds that share your life. (pause) You are never alone, you are never truly alone, you are always a part of a group, you are always a combination of minds. Each aspect of yourself forms each mind that surrounds yourself yet your focus is on one being, one life, one single awareness. Think of your achievements as joint achievements. Think of your thoughts as joint thoughts. Think of each picture that comes to your mind as a window out of the confusion where you can see the totality of your own self…’


There was a long pause.
Liz put the music back on.
I started to feel back with it and I told Liz I was back but we decided to play two more tunes and see if I became controlled again.
Liz felt very cold.
I was warm.
After about a minute I started to be controlled again and Liz turned off the music and welcomed the communication…

‘We return… we return back to you for we have not finished, we have not finished our communications to you, we merely took a break, took a break from proceedings. We needed to realign our energies, they were getting very thick, intense. We have lightened the energy to come back to you and speak once again, speak to you’

Liz… ‘Welcome’

‘Do you have any questions on your mind from what was said at the beginning of our session to you?’

Liz… ‘Yes, a question about the source of communication and inspiration that sometimes I get names coming into my head that seem to connect with discarnate entities, people who have lived but have passed on’

‘How do you feel when you get the names in your mind?’

Liz… ‘The names just appear, sometimes without any particular feeling attached, but perhaps the feeling at the time when those names appear is one of a slightly elevated feeling, a connection to spirit in general’

‘For you are indeed picking up the thoughts that motivated the characters that you recognise, those characters that once walked your Earth that are now stored in the libraries that can be accessed by you, that will make themselves known to you when you least expect it for you are putting yourself in a frame of mind, a receptive frame of mind. Once that receptive frame of mind has been achieved then the memories of the characters that once walked your Earth will be able to impinge on your receptive mind. Sometimes they will be characters that have been in your thoughts but occasionally a character will make itself known to you, someone who has not been the attention of your thoughts for many years. When this happens pay particular attention to what is given to you, relax your mind further and allow thoughts to come through for this will give you evidential communication. It will give you something that will trigger an open pathway that you will look into and you will discover for yourself connections that you knew, that you recognised but you did not have these on your mind. There are also names which will come forward which form the clutter of your mind but they have to come through and they take with them that clutter, those confused thoughts and clear a passage for you to look through and see the true communications, they are clearing the way but it is important to recognise each thought and each name that comes through to you when you have put yourself into a receptive state of mind for each thought serves a purpose. It is not for you to analyse the thoughts as they come to you for your job is to give out those thoughts’

Liz… ‘Thank you, that’s very interesting what you said because the name that came into my head came in very clearly and it was followed by a feeling that I was driving along a clear road, a road that was clearing, a clear way which is almost just like what you said. The road was clearing as I was driving along it into a clear space. That was my image, that was my sensation’

‘Then you have answered your question and we have confirmed for you’

Liz… ‘Yes thank you’

‘You will often find after you have sat that you will be taken to situations that will remind you of the thoughts that have come through to you. These are clarifications to you that you have indeed received words beyond your own mind. You may be reading a book and you will come across something that reminds you of thoughts that came to your mind when you were in your receptive state. This is our way of giving you comfort, giving you your evidence, allowing you to feel good that you have achieved a strong link with your spiritual world… Now the time has come where we have reached the end of our session this evening, we have taken a step forward in the contact that we have through the mind of the link that we use. We have been able to bypass some of the complications, some of the frustrations and bring to you a clearer message. We will continue to work on this until we are satisfied that what you receive represents the words of spirit, the words of greater understandings in a way that is understandable not only to yourself but to those who also listen and read these words for it is important that the message is received by all who have the interest in uncovering the mysteries of your world and our world and all that surrounds, all that surrounds and is also within. Thank you my dear friend, take from us a piece of our love. Take it into your world and illuminate each person you meet so that they too in their own way can see beyond your physical world. May God bless and keep you all’

Liz… ‘Goodnight friend and God bless you too’

‘Goodnight to you, thank you’

Liz… ‘Goodnight thank you’

Liz put the music on and I felt back with it in about two minutes.

Liz then did the closing prayer, sent out healing and did our closing down exercise…

171st Sitting 05/02/2016


We had the room setup as usual.
Liz did the opening prayer at 8.35pm, turned out the light and put the music on.

After five minutes Liz reported feeling presences in the room.
She saw moving shapes and noticed the room became a pale green colour.

Liz felt a juddering effect.

I lost consciousness just after the opening prayer and woke up about 20 minutes later.
After another ten minutes I started to be controlled.

Liz turned off the music and welcomed the communication as it settled in…

‘Good evening, good evening’

Liz… ‘Good evening to you’

‘Step outside of your familiar routine and observe the way that you can receive the inspirations that come to you. Step outside of what you feel you need to keep hold of, what you feel comfortable with. Step outside of this comfort zone and you will recognise the fragile connection that you have with your physical world. You will recognise that only one small part of that what you call yourself is truly engaged with physical reality for there is much more, there is a greater part of yourself waiting to be recognised, waiting to be set in motion, set free, given the chance to work for itself, work in its own way, creating and modifying all that it perceives. Step beyond the familiar and your creating powers will be enhanced. You are like a small dot on a page of writing. You all concentrate on that one dot yet there is much that surrounds that dot. That dot makes up but one section of a page of writing. Recognise that you are more. Recognise that you have been placed on this physical world in your entirety, your full self, every part of yourself can be used; can be the focus of your attention. You do not need to focus your attention on that one dot. There are many ways, many pathways to allowing your focus of awareness to spread out across the page of understanding. You can allow this to happen in a natural way, you can step out of yourself, you can reach out’

Liz… ‘Is it just habit that keeps us going round in these mental circles of worry and concern over mundane activities and problems. What is it that keeps us going round and round with these familiar thoughts?’

‘It is an internal conditioning, you have much experience, much build-up of experience as you go about your daily tasks, your mundane tasks but at the same time your interest has been sparked, your interest into discovering that greater reality, that greater understanding that surrounds you, that is within your grasp. Having that wanting to explore creates connections with those who are eager to help, eager to assist, eager to share in your discoveries but only you can make that decision to open and expand your awareness and only you can discover how. For the discovery of how to expand your awareness is the key, the key that unlocks your mind from this one narrow focus, this pinpoint of focus, you are encouraged to find it yourself. Always observe each unusual sensation, each unusual feeling that you have. When something happens that makes you think, that makes you question, that makes you question the solidity of a physical world, focus your awareness on this. Appreciate the importance of the subtle inspirations that occur to all on your world for you all are trying to get the attention of your greater self. You and you alone will recognise this. It is very easy to over complicate something which is simple; something which is within your grasp will be pushed away by complications. Keep it simple, keep it real, try not to look for what is not there, try to encourage that what is there to bring itself into your awareness’

Liz… ‘It feels sometimes as if the normal everyday awareness is a very cluttered and restricted and low energy awareness and it feels very difficult to operate more effectively with more energy and more openness. It’s as if a physical fatigue cramps everything and slows it down, makes it feel obscured and limited’

‘You have unlimited power at your disposal’

Liz… ‘Feels like being in possession of a possibly very high fidelity instrument but that it’s only working at a fraction of its real efficiency, its tuning is imperfect, not operating on all cylinders. I suppose one way of looking at it is as if the driver, me being the driver, has been interfering with the controls, fiddling around with limited understanding and has messed it all up somehow’

‘Step out of the driving seat, let go of the controls, take yourself into a new frame of mind, forget the unnecessary irritations in your life’

Liz… ‘This is where the idea of being able to go on retreats seems to be perhaps a very good way of doing this’

‘Think of your life as a retreat, a constant retreat free from all the complications, free from all the distractions. Keep your mind focused on that thought and you will see how you can indeed create for yourself a new reality’

Liz… ‘Can you do that even while you’re engaged in all the normal everyday obligations and tasks?’

‘Indeed you can. Teach yourself to do this, teach yourself to rise above that what causes you to believe that you have complications in your life, that you have disturbances in your life. Think of all of these as opportunities, grasp the opportunities and allow them to help you rise further above the complications of a physical life. There is nothing that can be thrown at you that will prevent you from living a wonderful uncluttered life. Only you will let that what comes to you cause confusion or irritation. The more that you consciously work at this each day of your life the easier it will become. Each time you stop working at this you will sink back down into the familiar, what for you has become the comfortable and the more that you do this that comfortable feeling will move away from the irritations and the complications of life. You will feel yourself rising above, you will feel yourself not allowing the complications to cause you worry for you will see the opportunities presented to you and you will grasp them with a smile upon your face for you will recognise the good in all of this, the love in all of this. Teach yourself to walk tall, walk above the underlying currents with a clear head and a clear mind. Only you can do this, only you can motivate yourself to keep on going, to keep on working but the benefits will be seen as a widening of your awareness’

Liz… ‘It’s almost paradoxical to think of keeping on working at letting go of working. You talked about the two different types of work as if you’re saying to keep vigilant but to let go of attachment’

‘To walk tall is to raise your mind, raise the way you think, raise the way you see, raise the way you interpret each situation. The work involved is in maintaining this, is in holding yourself up’

Liz… ‘I guess you’re saying a certain sort of vigilance, an attentiveness too’

‘As you rise, your attention will be heightened. That way you will see more in each situation, you will see what to reject and what to hold onto. You will see what it is that can drag you down and you will become wise and not allow yourself to be dragged down and the beauty of this is that it will spread out to others, those who you have become friends with will see how your own life can change and they will be attracted to how you are achieving this. They too will be raised up, they will follow your lead, they will want what you have, what you have achieved and they will be inspired to work on themselves in the same way’

Liz… ‘Sounds as if the achievement is equanimity’

‘The achievement is but one more step, one more step towards that what shines bright in the centre of your being’

Liz… ‘Yes there’s a lovely saying that what your saying has brought to mind… that life isn’t about hiding from the storm it’s about learning to dance in the rain’

‘A saying that was inspired for the very same reason that that light which shines within can indeed spread itself and shine throughout each part of each person, each mind, each consciousness. Many have seen, many have made that next step, they have achieved that next step and they have opened themselves up to further inspiration’

Liz… ‘It’s very difficult when one becomes aware even trying to do as you’re saying, how the bad habits and niggles of aversion, irritations, judgments, anger. All these negative emotional responses arise quite easily, one can catch oneself caught up in a situation reacting to it in this limited way. One can be aware of the negativity of this and of the limitations of those sort of responses and yet they’re still there even when being aware that these antithetical responses are not helpful responses to a situation they still arise. I guess the thing is to be aware of them to observe them but not to hold onto them and perhaps that’s the trick to lessen their grip by watching them like you watch clouds dispersing, you see a negative emotion form like a cloud’

‘Recognising that these emotions do indeed exist and can push you in different directions is the first step. Then to observe them in practice as they are brought upon yourself, as you feel yourself in angered situations, in sad situations, recognise these emotions; recognise how to lift yourself from these emotions. It will be a difficulty to all on your side’

Liz… ‘Yes, there’s a tendency to justify them because it’s difficult for somebody who’s on a spiritual path to catch themselves in what is basically a very unspiritual and ungenerous state of mind and the human tendency, I catch myself then trying to justify it by thinking of all the reasons why one should be feeling like that which isn’t helpful because then you get caught up in a story and this is happening all the time so I guess the trick is to recognise quickly that that’s happening and to let go of it’

‘Focus on the present, do not allow yourself to be drawn back to the past for the past remains in the past and you are in the present, you are operating in what for you is the present and your emotion at that time is what…’

Liz… ‘Triggered by memory… association’

‘It is what you are working on at that time. You are lifting yourself out of that emotion, you are recognising that emotion, you are telling yourself that you are in the wrong state of mind and you are teaching yourself how you can free yourself from that state of mind’

Liz… ‘Yes, I guess forgiving oneself is an important component isn’t it’

‘Forgiveness is a very valuable tool’

Liz… ‘To forgive others but also to forgive oneself for the lapses’

‘This is the work that you can undertake; you can work on yourself every moment of every day but see it as a wonderful opportunity. Be thankful for the negative emotions that you will feel, they are helping you to understand that you are more than what you appear to be. There are many circuits that make up your mind, make up the mind that is immersed in the physical world, circuits that spread out, that connect’

Liz… ‘I suppose the next question in my mind is what happens to all of that when you’ve let go of the physical because some of those habits, those thinking habits, must still be there, must carry on or does one just shed them like an old skin and step out as a butterfly?’

‘When you leave, when the physical world is extinguished in your mind you take with you all that you have achieved. You do not shed what…’

Liz… ‘So you take as well the negative habits?’

‘If that is what you have achieved yes. You do not change, you remain the same core energy, there is no difference yet you will…’

Liz… ‘It’s said that… people who talked about the afterlife have said that it is far easier for us to change those bad habits while we are in the physical than it is after we die’

‘The physical world gives more opportunities to work at this yes. Beyond the physical there is less opportunity, there is less concentration of opportunity, there is less structure to work with’

Liz… ‘So in a way the will power which we have in the physical, that focus of intention, is maybe slightly diluted… is that what you’re saying?’

‘The will power remains the same but the structure that the will can work on will fluctuate, will change its form. You yourself will remain intact with all your qualities, all your beliefs, all your fears but in a lighter environment, in an environment where structure is more fluid. You will be unable to work at releasing the fears and the beliefs. You will be given opportunities to return to a more structured environment but it is up to you, up to you to see the advantage or disadvantage of taking on another physical life for there are other opportunities available to you. Opportunities which you in your current state of mind cannot fully understand for you are currently fixed in the framework of your physical world’

Liz… ‘The negative habits that arise in each individual are they merely the arising and constructions from this lifetime or are they the product of many previous lifetimes. Has the soul brought those habits with them, are they echoes from other lives?’

‘The products of previous lifetimes remain with you’

Liz… ‘So emotions like pride or anger or resentment or hatred may actually have echoes from previous lifetimes, they may be etched into the soul’

‘The products of previous lifetimes’

Liz… ‘In which case it would take quite a lot of work and understanding, realisation to release them, to paint them out as it were’

‘You come to this life, this physical life with a page from a book, with possibilities that have been built up from previous lifetimes yet it is up to you to fill in the gaps of these possibilities’

Liz… ‘I can see the value for someone who has maybe been very proud, arrogant, dominant, judgemental in a life to find themselves brought low, humbled, to find themselves in a situation where all that prestige and pride crumbles, where they’re suddenly made to feel very small as if they’re stripped naked and realise that they’re no better or worse than anyone else, maybe even worse. That could be a way of overcoming that conceit or realising how false that self-regard was’

‘The human mind has the ability to recognise in itself the faults that it has built up, the fears that it has built up and when the opportunity to immerse in a physical world is brought to it then preparations are made to assist that mind to be subjected to situations which will help, help that mind to break free of those fears, of those wrong doings, those mistakes. Situations will be set up’

Liz… ‘To help with the beginning of wisdom, I guess that is the beginning of wisdom isn’t it to benefit from those situations and begin to see things as they truly are, warts and all’

‘There is a great pretence that governs your world, a great pretence that is subject to interrogation by the minds of those who have sampled, who have had a taste of many physical lives. They have grown accustomed to the patterns that are presented during a journey through a physical life. They have grown tired of the repetitive situations that are presented time and time again and they have seen the pretence in this and they have been able to uncover the secret, they have seen beyond the pretence, the illusion. They have indeed seen the true reality, the true experience that is happening to all of you. They have taken one layer from that what blinds you. You too will see your life as the great illusion, a form of pretence that covers you all, that keeps you all in order yet it allows you all to walk tall and see the truth. Watch your world, watch your worlds grow and evolve. See how each moment creates a new way of thinking and grasp that new way of thinking, hold it, imagine it, take from it that what drives you, drives you to understand what you truly are. Let go of illusion, take hold of truth but do not forget those around you for your true purpose is to help each other. Your own spiritual awareness will only blossom as a result of the help you can give to others. Think of others, see yourself in others for you are all one consciousness, one mind, one beautiful reality… Thank you my dear friend. We have spoken much this evening. We have opened your eyes and the eyes of many and we wish to continue each week in developing the thoughts of all who inhabit your physical world. All who have the ears to listen and the eyes to see. The work you do here has a great benefit to the world and the worlds beyond. Never forget the importance of your weekly sessions. A light has been turned on and it will continue to illuminate. You sit in darkness yet you are creating illumination throughout your world, throughout your universe, throughout many worlds, worlds within worlds, homes within homes. Create a box and open it, create a song and then sing it, create  a vision and paint it. Do not let go of your imagination and the possibilities that lay ahead. There is much to achieve and much has been done, thank you, take a piece of our love and strengthen the bond of friendship of all who you meet. May God bless you all, may God keep you all and may God guide you all. Thank you my dear friend, goodnight to you’

Liz… ‘Goodnight and God bless you all, thank you’

Liz put the music back on and I was feeling back with it after a couple of minutes.
Liz then did the closing prayer, sent out healing and did our closing down exercise.

There was a crackling sound on the recording which started when the communication began and stopped when the communication finished.
It sounded like static electricity or the scratches on a record being played.
The recorder sits in a pocket on the inside of the cabinet curtain to my left. My knees touch the front of the curtains so it’s possible that my legs that always shake while I’m being controlled caused the recorder to shake in a way that produced the crackling sound but I sit in the same way and with the same setup each week and this is the first time the crackling has come out on the recording…

170th Sitting 29/01/2016


We had the room setup as usual.

Liz did the opening prayer at 8.35pm, turned out the light and put the music on.

Liz sensed a golden light building up in the room.

I lost consciousness about 15 minutes after the opening prayer and woke up 30 minutes later.
I started to be controlled two minutes after waking up.
Liz turned down the music and welcomed the communication as it settled in.

‘Good evening’

Liz… ‘Good evening’

‘Place your thoughts at the heart of each developing situation as it presents itself to you. Time brings forward opportunities as you live your life, as you travel a linear pathway. The clock ticks, the calendar is marked off, you become older, you watch as the passage of time unfolds. You feel you are not in control yet what you think, what you take from the situations and opportunities is what creates that what is brought forward, that what is worked towards. You see future events as happenings that have not occurred, situations that have not happened yet you are creating them, you are setting up your own situation by the way you think, by the way you interpret that what is presented to you each day. Use this to your advantage for you can create your own happenings, your own situations’

Liz… ‘This does seem to be very true and I’ve noticed this as it works in my life. I’ve watched things that I’ve imagined, that I’ve envisaged, potential creative situations and I’ve slowly watched them years later as they’re come into being and it often amazes me’

‘There is much in your mind now that you feel would take miracles to achieve yet you are already working towards that achievement, you are putting in place by your own thoughts and your own interpretations, putting in place land marks that will indeed present themselves. Always take care on how you think, on how you interpret, allow your mind to explore, allow your awareness to widen, to seep into each possibility that is presented to you. Do not make foolish decisions, guard your thoughts, reach for the highest, do not let the negative actions and thoughts of others sway your own decisions. Think with a positive mind, explore with an open mind, do not cast doubt on your own abilities for each and every one of you has the ability to change the world, change the physical atmosphere for the good or for the bad. As understanding unfolds and is grasped more will look for the good, look for the good in all situations and create opportunities that will enhance the loving thoughts as they are produced’

Liz… ‘Friend, with that in mind I would like to ask your advice. I’ve been asked by someone whether they might use this dedicated space, this room in darkness in order to practise a spiritual technique for opening up to the greater awareness and self, the no self, an egoless state and I’m wondering whether allowing somebody else to use this space for their own spiritual practise would be advisable or whether it would interfere with the work we are doing here as a dedicated space or whether it might enhance it?’

‘This space has been created by loving minds who have been inspired by spiritual thoughts. Your friend also is looking at expanding the spirituality in their mind, they are trying to eliminate the darker thoughts, the darker thoughts that create the obstacles which hold you back, prevent you all from lightening up the physical vibration. All work that is done that will ultimately bring love into your world is welcomed by us and we see no reason why it should not be encouraged and this space made use of for the development of spirituality’

Liz… ‘Thank you friend, thank you for that support’

‘We encourage all development of this kind and we are pleased that the space you have created can be used, can be more widely used. Each individual when they make the decision to raise their spiritual vibration, engage with their spiritual awareness, has to find the best conditions in which to enhance the development of spiritual awareness. If a darkened séance room will help them then this space can and will be used’

Liz… ‘Thank you’

‘Over time as the spiritual awareness is developed it will be found that a dedicated space and a darkened atmosphere will no longer be necessary. All development moves forward, each person evolves and a new environment will be seeked and will be found. We can see a time when more individuals will seek to develop their spiritual awareness in whatever conditions they feel at ease with. The light within the physical vibration is a powerful energy, an energy that is felt by all and a desire to strengthen that energy resides in the minds of all who take up physical bodies in a physical world. Your world is making great advances in the use of technology by a greater number of people. You have your World Wide Web, a wonderful tool for the bringing together over vast distances people who normally would never have communicated. Information is able to spread, is able to reach the homes of those who tune into your World Wide Web. We can see how this will work, how it will spread the understandings that will spark the curiosity in each mind that is connected. Never before has such a huge opportunity been available to so many. A time will come when nothing can be hidden. A time will come when each individual will have a greater choice. Each event will be seen for its merits and its failures’

Liz… ‘It almost seems as if the Internet has become, is like an externalisation of the subconscious mind of humanity, everything that’s contained there, all the knowledge and understanding and the feelings and emotions seem to find their way out. They are mirrored in all the information and communication that goes on in the Internet. The dark stuff and the high enlightened spiritual stuff it’s all there’

‘A coming together of each mind, each individual mind and a realisation as to how connected you all are and how connected we all are. More questions will be asked and the answers will be found. More questions will come from the answers that are found. More will be shared. Those who fight to supress the greater knowledge will find themselves unable to work in the way they once enjoyed for their power will be taken from them’

Liz… ‘You’re referring to freedom of information’

‘Each person will have an equal opportunity to explore for themselves and create their own interpretation untainted by those who seek to control, those who feel the power in the ability to control, they will have to give way and become one with all the residents of your physical world. Once the secrets that are held in your physical world, once they break free, once they become available then greater understanding will find an easier path into the minds of each individual. Greater understanding that will help to open the eyes and the minds of many and allow them to see the benefits of working with the light in your world’

Liz… ‘Yes it seems to be true nowadays that more and more ordinary people are becoming aware of how power has been concentrated in the hands of the few and that withholding information and of truth has allowed the few to get away with controlling and limiting the resources for the many. I think more and more people have become aware of that and that awareness has made them ordinary people braver in appropriating truth for themselves, seeking it for themselves not just being content with the myths and the illusions that they’ve been fed, things that they’ve been told, it’s making them question more the grounds and the basis of the reality that has been presented to them. It seems that novelists and writers who write fiction in their accounts of how the world is run and behaves have come very close to the truth, portraying things in such a way that people begin to see that this fiction is actually representative of how things are’

‘The novelists were indeed inspired and opened up to the greater understandings. Many could see through the fabric of your physical world. They understood the patterns that held your physical world; they understood how that hold could be released’

Liz… ‘It takes courage it seems to step through the illusion of the mind into reality. To allow one’s self to experience things as they are rather than as we’ve been taught that they appear’

‘Courage drives out fear. Courage illuminates the pathway to the light of your world. Illuminates each situation giving the impression that the love within truly is the answer to further understandings. See how control has no hold on a mind that is free. Nothing can stop the advancement of a free thinking mind inspired by love for it can only grow stronger and brighter filling the hearts of all, inspiring others, teaching others, helping others, holding out a helping hand to those who have the courage to walk tall’

Liz… ‘…and to walk through the looking glass. I think one of the most difficult things and maybe one of the bravest is to strip away the illusion, to go back to first principles, to basics, to actually go back, to become naked, to let go of all the information, all the worldly knowledge and to re-establish ground zero. It’s a difficult thing, a humbling thing to do but sometimes circumstances force people to do that, to let go of everything and go back to square one because it’s like we grow up and the more we learn the more we act in the world, the more investment we have in our beliefs and everything that’s happening to us and to actually let go of that investment, to go back to square one and discover what was real in all this, what is real by admitting that it might all have been erroneous, mistaken, on a false premise takes an incredible amount of courage and I think sometimes that’s the only way for people to actually re-establish the connection with spirit. It’s a little bit like the saying in the bible… except you become as little children again you shall not inherit the kingdom of God. Almost as if you have to go back to square one to re-establish what was real at the beginning because so much that we’re given are red herrings and false leads that condition a reality that’s based on error’

‘You have all clothed yourself with beliefs as you walked through your physical pathways. Each step brings forth new beliefs until you are stifled with fear, unable to see, unable to hear, for you have built for yourself a prison cell. It does indeed take courage to break free from that prison cell and once again see the world through the eyes of a child stepping out into a new adventure unaffected by the negativities, seeing only good, seeing only light’

Liz… ‘It’s very true when you look into the eyes of a baby there’s that incredible openness, a wonderful sense of connection, uncontaminated, just love, trust. To get back to that is a wonderful thing. Every child faces a new opportunity, every baby that’s born a new opening, a new opportunity’

‘The physical world was initially designed to take each new born child on a journey of discovery, a journey of unlimited discovery, limited only by the physical structure that makes up your world’

Liz… ‘I guess those who betray that trust of the new born need to be forgiven that in their ignorance they failed’

‘Forgiveness is a powerful energy, an energy that can break down walls, walls created by beliefs’

Liz… ‘I guess we’ve had millennia of betrayal of the child’

‘The child still exists in each person. The child is merely hidden from the awareness. The child still has the ability in each individual to motivate, to bring forth awareness, to bring forth recognition of how life can be beyond the build-up of illusion. Illusion brought on by beliefs governed by fears’

Liz… ‘How wonderful to think that we can recapture that state, be reborn’

‘Years of illusion has brought upon the mind the belief that it is truly separate, unconnected to those who share the physical world. The connections are misunderstood. There is darkness and there is light and the misunderstandings create the illusion’

Liz… ‘I have to say in this room earlier tonight the darkness seemed very light. I was aware the darkness had a golden quality and was full of light which sounds paradoxical’

‘The physical world paints the picture that darkness can only be dissolved by light yet each individual can take a dark situation and see it for what it really is, for it is an illusion, it is a complication in the fabric of the physical world, a complication that can be resolved by loving thoughts, by elevated thoughts. Use your eyes to see the true beauty of love in each dark situation then watch the darkness dissolve. Nobody has to live with darkness in their life. Everybody has an equal opportunity to raise the vibration of your physical world and realise that nobody stands alone for you are all one. Nothing separates the human mind. Do not allow the illusion to build up in your mind, the illusion of separation. Spread the truth of connection and understand how your World Wide Web is truly spreading that truth of connection. Rejoice in the fact that a greater understanding will be shared by many as your years go by and help each other with your elevated thoughts and your loving minds, reaching out to the weaker, looking out to the stronger, to the strength that we can provide. The time is coming when wonderful opportunities will be seen by the majority but it is still up to each individual to grasp or deny those wonderful opportunities. Play your part, play your part well and the balance will favour the good, will favour the light, will allow the spiritual understanding to once again take hold and mould the minds, the minds that make up your world and the minds that will go on into greater worlds, greater opportunities, greater situations, ever expanding, fulfilling the mission that was started when your world was created and set in motion. The time when those who watch stepped back and allowed the free will of individual units to shape and reshape what had been created with love’

(pause)

Liz… ‘I think we must have come to the end of our session now’

‘The time has come once again yes, the passage of time. We hope we have given to you more to think about, more to put into your world, your world of understanding limited by physical structures and journeys. We appreciate the time you give us to put words into your world and create for you understandings that will help you to free yourself from the beliefs and fears that govern so many. Please take from us a piece of our love, spread it around your physical world, watch as it lightens the hearts and minds of all who it touches. Recognise the power in love and work with love each day of your life. Thank you my dear friend, may God bless and keep each and every one of you’

Liz… ‘Thank you friend, goodnight and God bless you all’

‘Goodnight to you, we will take a few moments to withdraw’


I felt back with it after a couple of minutes.
I had seen a lot of light during the communications and at one point it was almost like a camera flash in front of me.

Liz did the closing prayer, sent out healing and did our closing down exercise…
