Mediumship resources request

I have to say I haven’t - and I have visited a few, some of them highly recommended.

As for trusting other people’s opinions on particular mediums, unless I know the person well or can properly talk to them about their experience I find it hard to consider their opinion conclusive or much more than ‘interesting’ at best. You may have a different way of evaluating them which is of course perfectly fine. That’s not to say their experience wasn’t conclusive for them of course but I’m not keen on relying on the judgement or evidence of a complete stranger without something to corroborate it.

The people who appear to have been very good mediums haven’t usually acquired their skills by deciding that they wanted to do this and then attending courses and reading books on the subject. They seem to have had a natural aptitude which was perhaps honed by mentoring, tuition or in a  development circle of some kind.

That said there are some examples of apparently competent mediums who did just that - ie set about establishing communication with no idea whether they had any ability or not - but it seems to have taken a very long time and a lot of dedication to get quite meagre results.

I agree that the Windbridge research looks very interesting, if it is what it appears to be. However when one reads reviews apparently written by people who  sat with the mediums tested by Windbridge the results look somewhat variable (which was true for some of the best mediums of their day in fairness). 

Personally I find it difficult to reach a firm conclusion. I’m confident some people can do this, but I haven’t met one (yet) who could do it for me.

Fair enough. I don't personally have to believe in mediumship to want to try it, a bit of a self verificationist I suppose.
