Spiritualism
Discussing the
future of the Spiritualist movement
Spiritualism:
Spiritualism is a rational
religion based on the knowledge, proven through mediumship,
that the human spirit survives physical death.

This
section of the site is specifically about Spiritualism
as a movement and presents some of my controversial
views about what I believe Spiritualism should do
in order to progress to become the world movement
that it's pioneers envisioned. Most of the articles
here were published in the Psychic News- Spiritualism's
own newspaper and address issues such as:
Spiritualism
- Is it dying because of our conservative views?
Spiritualism
- Are Spiritualist mediums serving the movement or
their own self interest in the media?
Spiritualism
- Should Spiritualism drop its links with Christianity?
I hope
what follows will inspire you, enrage you, amuse you
but most of all encourage Spiritualists to make changes.
And if you would like to talk about these subjects
why not drop into our free psychic
chat rooms that are staffed and visited by many
well known Spiritualists.

ARE
YOU NEW TO SPIRITUALISM?
You may have found
this page because someone you love has died and you
now hope that a Spiritualist Medium
may be able to help you to overcome your grief by
proving that life continues. We hope this will be
the first step on a journey that will not only bring
you the comfort you need but also lead you to towards
a fuller understanding of the purpose of life and
death.
It is best to wait
for the pain of your grief to settle before you have
a one to one consultation with a medium. We suggest
that as a first step you seek solace at a Spiritualist
Church. This will not only give you insight into how
mediumship works but will also surround you with people
who have trodden the same path and had personal proof
that death is not the end. You will find hope, comfort
and friendly non-intrusive support. You will smile
again but it will take time before the healing process
is completed.
Spiritualist
Religion
Many people are put off because
Spiritualism is a religion. Some people love religious
ceremony, hymns and so on. As you will read on these
pages, I dislike the religious aspect of Spiritualism.
But don't let this or my comments put you off because
Spiritualism has so much more to offer. Yes, Spiritualism
has prayers and hymns at their services but it is
not an evangelical religion that wants to thrust its
beliefs down your throat. In fact it is extremely
tolerant and easy going and attracts a multi-faith
congregation.
But what makes Spiritualism
so very special and different to any other religion
is that during the the service the medium gives a
demonstration of mediumship to give proof that we
survive death. This is similar to what you see when
you watch people like John Edward or Jane and me working
on TV. To get a feel of what a church is like you
can see a example
demonstration of Craig working at Billington Spiritualist
Church near Darlington on the movie section of this
site. On the same site you can also find out about
how to be a guest at Craig's
Spiritualist Circle.
So
how do you visit a Spiritualist Church?
In the UK there are
Spiritualist Churches in most towns. You can read
a full list at the Spiritualist's
National Union Website. A country specific search
in Google will reveal other Spiritualist Churches
around the world. You do not have to 'join' or make
arraignments to attend. Just turn up on for the Sunday
service that usually start at 6.30 in the UK. Sit
down and enjoy the service. There is a collection-
most people put about a pound in the plate. Towards
the end of the service the visiting medium will give
a demonstration of mediumship and, if you are lucky,
you may be one of the people he or she gives a message
to.
