Recap

Messages from a Medium

Hans King (hansking.com) an internationally acclaimed direct voice medium, was George's main guest on Monday night. As a boy, King was first visited by a Native American spirit guide who helped him to become aware of his spiritual gifts. King has maintained his contact with this guide throughout his life, as well as adding three other "master spirits," all of whom once lived on the earthly plane but now voice answers to him from the Other Side.

King consulted his guides for a Q & A session about our future. Among their revelations:

• There will be a nuclear incident in the U.S. within the next three years and 75,000 to 125,000 people will die.
• There was never an intention to capture Saddam Hussein.
• 70,000 to 80,000 years from now mankind will be destroyed by an asteroid.
• 26 million inhabitants fled from Mars when their planet's core died. Some came to Earth.
• Sasquatch is not real. "There are anomalies in vibrationary patterns that can create visions."

The spirit world, King said, "is where we come from." Our lives here on the physical plane are only a facet of a greater existence in the spiritual dimension, he explained.

Spotlight on: Mediums

Tonight's guest, Hans King, gleans knowledge from the Other Side through his mediumistic abilities. Mediums are "those who are able to tune into the faster vibration of the spirit body after death," writes James Van Praagh in his bestseller Talking to Heaven. This differentiates them from psychics, who don't necessarily have the ability to communicate with discarnate spirits. Another well-known medium, John Holland, refers to himself as a drawbridge: "I raise my energy, and the spirits lower theirs. A bridge is then built and using the power of love, we have a connection that flows, with feelings, words, and memories."

Mediumships fall into two categories: mental and physical. Mental mediums typically receive their communications telepathically, but among the forms physical mediumship can take are: rappings, levitation, apports (appearance of objects) and channeling. In the case of channeling the discarnate spirit will speak directly through the medium, often in a voice that is distinctly their own.

Mediums often work with spirit guides. These entities are generally always available to them, and can act as intermediaries between the medium and other spirits. Everyone is said to have their own spirit guides and Van Praagh suggests a couple of techniques for getting in touch with yours. One is through meditation, where you mentally ask for your teacher to be revealed in your mind's eye, and the other is by focusing on this request before going to sleep, so that this being will appear in your dream.
