SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook A few weeks after this I again invited Mr. Beard down and, on resuming our investigations, I was again favoured with even more conclusive evidence of the continuity of life on the plane beyond this, but which indubitably interplanes with it. Mr. Beard was in his normal condition, and, after sitting in the music room for a few minutes in silence, said, ” There is again your Eastern friend standing near the piano and he…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook I then added—” Can my dear mother give me some evidence of our parting on the occasion of my leaving home for India. It was the last time I saw her on earth, and as there were peculiar circumstances connected there- with, it would be interesting and convincing if she could show me some of the incidents. ” Mr. Beard said ” Your mother is showing me a scene of your parting in a room…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook Mr. Beard then said, ” Is this intelligible to you? ” I replied, ” I think it must be the spirit of my old Khansamah, of whom I was very fond.” Mr. Beard at once said, ” What is a Khansamah? ” I replied, ” A butler or head servant.” My friend at once said, “No! this is no servant, but one in a higher position; one who was your friend. I say this because…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook It will, moreover, be discovered that this power, although latent to-day, will change its potentialities into a mighty, compelling, living force which will do more to uplift the human race than anything that has heretofore transpired in its long history. It is a power that, throughout the ages, has always been held by the few, but when man realizes that it is part of his mortal heritage, that it belongs to every human being, and…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook Not being possessed of clairvoyant powers, or rather, as I have since learned, not having developed those clairvoyant, clairaudient, or other spiritual gifts which it is conceivable are immanent in every human entity, the evidence I earnestly and reverently sought for had necessarily to be communicated to me through a Medium who had developed his own power, in precisely the same manner that those who have not learned to become telegraphic operators have to employ…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook Questioned as to the meaning of these, to me, miraculous manifestations, my friend explained that there was nothing superhuman or supernatural about such phenomena, which are, in reality, nothing but the operation of one of God’s natural laws, as yet but imperfectly understood by man. Each one of us, he said, possesses, whether he knows it or not, a psychic aura in which such spirit experiences as those just referred to can and do take…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook I will pass over a number of minor manifestations of the actual existence of several other friends included in that number of spirit-forms which my friend told me were about me when he first informed me of their presence, for the reason that I have so much to relate that, unless I confine myself to but one or two of the more prominent features of these spiritual manifestations, I shall prolong this narrative indefinitely. Connected…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook I would here add that I was so ” taken aback,” in common parlance, that I had no fitting word to say, and I fear I let my dear wife drift away, so to speak, without asking any questions. At any rate I cannot remember if I said anything or what I said, beyond the reply above given in response to Mr. Beard’s question: ” Does the picture convey any meaning? “ So that this…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook Following immediately on this, to me, supernatural phenomenon, came another startling discovery. My friend said, ” I see another female form. She is of a taller and fuller presence than your mother; a handsome, commanding woman with a full open brow, large, clear, blue-grey eyes, straight nose, beautifully shaped lips and mouth, and a full, rounded chin. Her hair is luxuriant, dark brown, streaked freely with grey, and worn so as to show a high…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook It is true that my friend, who was describing these events to me, most clearly delineated my mother’s form and features, particularly a somewhat remarkable feature, my mother’s eyes, which were large, brown and liquid and full of love and pathos, and which he described as ” stag-like ” eyes, full, clear and brown; but as it is difficult for one person to convey to another an accurate description of form, feature and expression by…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook Naturally enough this additional proof of what to me, at that period, appeared to be a manifestation of superhuman power was astounding beyond measure, particularly so as it occurred to me that the only costume or articles of attire, head-dress or what not, that I remember my dear mother ever wearing were, singularly enough, the very cap with its peculiar flat shape and broad ribbons or lappets at the side falling to the shoulders, together…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook I made some remark to the effect ” Is it possible that such things can be? ” and my friend replied— ” Certainly, there is no doubt that acts done in this life live on, and that their results are visible and well understood in the next life.” My friend then said: —” Among the many spirit-forms I see about you is one apart from the rest.” He then described a beautiful female figure, her…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook That He has, aforetime, so used part of this spirit force in manifesting Himself in a similar manner to the sons of men, through His chosen spiritual instruments, history freely testifies. That He similarly manifests Himself to the human race to-day, by and through the means of those who have developed their clairvoyant and clairaudient powers, is beyond dispute or doubt. That He has manifested Himself to me during the last few months by His…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook Man, through that immortal part of him known by the name of Conscience, not infrequently becomes his own judge, even in the flesh, warped, constrained and entirely subdued as it often is by earthly considerations; but, freed from the trammels of its gross material body, and purged of its carnal covering, by passing through the mists of death, the imperishable spirit stands revealed. It is then that the real work of expiation, of redemption, commences,…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook In other words, the incessant giving-off of spirit- essence by the souls of men becoming discarnate, and the prodigious accumulation of spiritual force as a necessary result of human dissolution, is wasted. Think of it! Think of what it means! On the one hand we have knowledge of the ceaseless energy of the Productive Principle always operating, always constructing, eternally evolving and ever energising, and, on the other, the antithesis of it all in the…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook Lastly, as I plainly perceive that the investigation of psychic phenomena, or the quest after Truth, not only does not take a man one step away from God and His Christ but, on the contrary, brings him many steps nearer to Him—” Straight into the Everlasting Arms “—it follows that this fragment of the Indestructible Truth should also be carefully gathered up, preserved, and built into the great structure of God’s mighty purpose towards mankind.…

That as many of the great men who have moved across the world’s stage during the last few thousand years have been richly endowed with psychic powers of a nature that enabled them to ” walk very near to God,” it would be a pardonable ambition if the sons of this age sought to emulate those great heroes of ancient times. The greatest of these was Jesus the Christ; and, although He performed works the like of which the world had never beheld, yet He laid claim to no powers…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook I have added nothing to, nor substracted anything from, these experiences, but record them word for word, as far as I can remember, just as they occurred. For these reasons, as also for those I am about to give, I deem it advisable to make known these manifestations. Here are a few other considerations which urge me to this course: I find that a vast number of people, while desirous of knowing something of psychic…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook The world was old before the Saviour’s advent, and it is older to-day, yet Pilate’s famous aphorism is ever upon the lips of men. Christ Himself stood for Truth; was, indeed, its very incarnation. His Apostles affirmed it; the early Christian Fathers died for it; prophets, seers and sages have expounded its principles these many thousands of years, and even to-day do those spirits, from what men term the ‘ Shadowland,’ come to declare it…

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATIONS A BRIEF RECORD OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES By Sir WM. EARNSHAW COOPER, CIE.Audiobook In recounting to friends certain psychic phenomena which it has been my fortune to experience during the last few months, I have been urged to place on record all that has occurred to me for the benefit of those interested in the study of spiritual manifestations.On giving the matter due consideration, I am confronted by several questions that seem to require careful thought before I commit to writing, and therefore, possibly, to eventual publication, certain…
