Sadly, combined pressure by materialist science and dogmatic religion in Western society has created a "taboo" or prohibition on publicly investigating, or even talking about, psychic phenomena (PSI) or the afterlife, even though it is a topic of vital interest to every human being.

We repeatedly hear from people now living in the astral dimension that those who take the trouble to learn about the afterlife are doing themselves a huge favour. They suffer far less from grief while alive and make a much better adjustment when they cross over. We are told that dealing with masses of people who have no knowledge of spirit is creating a huge amount of work for those who receive them.

The great spirit teacher Silver Birch said: "You send millions who are unprepared, unfitted and ignorant. It is much more difficult to teach an adult the lessons he should have learned in school... Do not blame us for the existence of millions of souls, many of whom are unaware of the fact that they are dead physically, and almost dead spiritually. That is the work you have to do in your world, to prepare people for the life that inevitably awaits them when death comes to their physical bodies." (More Philosophy of Silver Birch p. 69)

DEAN RADIN AND THE WOO WOO TABOO

Dr. Dean Radin points out "It is generally believed in the scientific community that spirituality has nothing to offer science. However, some of the iconic figures of science, Thomas Edison, Isaac Newton and Madame Curie, were all actively interested in 'non-scientific' endeavors such as alchemy and contacting the dead."
