My experiences while out of my body : $b and my return after many days
Richmond, Cora L. V. (Cora Linn Victoria)
Astral projection; Spiritualism
I could but marvel at the wonderful workings of these principles that
govern the influence of “mind upon mind”--really _spirit upon spirit_;
so much more complex yet more potent than the “forces” and operation
of the “laws” of the material universe--“laws” so little understood,
“forces” so dimly perceived.
“Most of the people on the Earth-plane know so little even concerning
the things and forces most intimately connected with their bodily
existence: the sunshine, the air they breathe, the earth beneath them,
the sea, and the heavens of _Stars_; we must not wonder over-much that
they know little or nothing of this inner, though more real, realm of
Spirit.”
This was from the Guide. Anticipating the question that was welling up
from the mind: “Why do not those on Earth know more of these spirit
states, more of their own conditions spiritually?” The answer had
already been given, and as we passed on the Teacher said:
“Growth, unfoldment, waiting, working.”
CO-WORKERS
Among the groups and assemblages whom I met and with whom I was most
frequently in communication during this surpassing sojourn were the
arisen co-workers in the “_Movement_” with which my life-work has been
most identified:
“SPIRITUALISM”
In the work of a life-time as a chosen “instrument” to bear “glad
tidings,” to promote the knowledge of spirit existence here and beyond
the change called death, and the ministration from and communion with
the arisen ones, I had met in outward existence every leading mind and
every worker (medium) known in the Spiritualistic movement.
We were always friends, always co-workers, sisters and brothers bearing
forward a great Truth. Very frequently during this wonderful visit in
the realm of spirit I saw them--either alone or in smaller or larger
groups, renewing the companionship that had been so beautiful and
delightful when we had worked side by side in human forms.
In your memory, dear reader, or in your reading scan the list of names
who were first known as “Investigators” then as “Spiritualists,” and
the names of those known as MEDIUMS (there were no “Psychics” in those
days.) I knew and loved them all. I met them all. Each one in spirit
life is still engaged in imparting this knowledge--most important
of all that human beings can receive--concerning Spiritual Truth.
Existence, life, love, work beyond the change called death;
SPIRITUALISM AS A MOVEMENT,
I had ever been instructed by my Guides, was given to the world when
_needed_, and when there were those upon the Earth who were ready, when
the “ages were ripe” for its coming.
In spirit states of Earth and in the realms far beyond were those who
knew the “day and hour” had come for “moving upon the minds of Earth
with this new illumination.”
