The Windbridge Institute is an independent research organization dedicated to investigating human potential. One of their lines of research is anomalous information transfer received through ‘mediums’, and how this may provide proof of the survival of consciousness after the physical death of the body (see my interview with Dr Julie Beischel of the Windbridge Institute for more).
As part of their on-going research into these areas, the Windbridge Institute is currently seeking volunteers to act as sitters who will receive and score mediumship readings. If this interests you, head to their website for more information, and a secure, on-line pre-screening questionnaire.
Separately, Dr Beischel’s former colleague Dr Gary Schwartz is recruiting for the Sophia Project Entity Communications Study:
Numerous individuals in various cultures throughout history have reported an ability to communicate with non-human entities, deceased people, and other-worldly beings. Over the past few years, an increase in the reporting of these types of experiences has been seen in popular American culture including books, websites, and television shows. The rational scientific investigation of this topic is necessary to either validate the experiences or elucidate the psychological mechanisms behind these phenomena. This study is intended to investigate this controversial topic in a thorough and objective manner.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the experiences of people who claim to channel or communicate with Deceased People, Spirit Guides, Angels, Other-Worldly Entities / Extraterrestrials, and / or a Universal Intelligence / God. The ultimate objective is to investigate if these communications can be validated under controlled conditions.
Zener cards seem so quaint by comparison…
