laws of nature

Having recently explored the theme of paranormal investigations.  I thought I would write a little this month about how mediums can be used in a more positive way during investigations that follow someone’s death. I often get asked questions from people who want to know about the situations that their loved ones have left behind. Commonly these questions relate to wills, financial issues, family estates or adoption issues.

Very recently I was asked to try and find out where some missing money had been put. The circumstances are very sad, as the person who left the money knew their illness was terminal. A friend of mine had been made executor of the will, but was only told a percentage of what needed to be done and cleared up once the person had died. Fortunately, I have been able to connect with the spirit and have given details which have been useful regarding the unresolved financial affairs. The information has recently been verified with the family concerned and they are now able to benefit from it.

 

Although I have personally never been involved, mediums have been used in criminal investigations, including searches for missing people. It is something I would be interested in, but I am also aware of the level of responsibility that goes with it. Attention to detail and acute accuracy would be paramount, as there are potential legal implications to this sort of work. There are many TV shows on psychic criminal investigations at the moment and I do find them very interesting, as it is something that can be used in a positive way.

 

The subject does bring some emotive questions into the picture, however. I have been asked a lot why the spirits of murder victims don’t use a medium to tell their loved ones who committed the crime. This question is rarely answered adequately, but my belief is that the universe is governed by natural law (different to the human laws we operate by) and that these laws keep the universe in balance. As human beings, we can choose whether or not to live in harmony with this natural law. Ultimately, the spirit world cannot interfere in our daily lives as this would infringe on the natural path our life is taking. That’s why I don’t receive the lottery numbers from the other side; it would change my life ... although for the better, I may add!

 

It is also why the spirit world would not provide the names and address of all those people who had committed crimes, no matter how much we would like them to. The impact would be massive and would change the natural course of life not only for the family of the victims and the guilty individuals, but also for everyone that knows them. It’s never just about just one person and I feel at times we forget this. I don’t proclaim to agree with these natural laws, but I do accept them. A part of spiritual development is to look at the big picture; every thought, action and word creates and changes more than we usually imagine. Of course it’s not impossible for the spirit world to give information which will lead to a criminal prosecution, but it is uncommon. Regardless of that though, I believe that no one escapes universal law and karma. What we give out in life, so shall it be returned.

It is all part of the bigger picture. We are all on a spiritual journey to enlightenment and we have an eternity to complete it. Spiritual and human evolvements are totally separate and one of the reasons we exist is to learn to express our spirit and let it lead us in life, instead of being controlled by the human part of us - the animalistic side. It is this that causes so much suffering on earth, hence the importance of learning to allow our spirit to be master over our primal self.
