Evidence for Life After Death. Bigelow 2021 Essay contest runner-up Michael Tymn

 “I tell you with all the strength and conviction I can utter that we do persist, that people over there still take an interest in what is going on here; that they still help us and know far more about  things than we do, and are able from time to time to communicate with us.”  Sir Oliver Lodge

Evidence of Life After Death

In the podcast archives, my interview with Michael Tymn. I have followed his blog for a few years and appreciate the tremendous amount of research he has done over the past couple of decades.

I managed to catch him on a good day. He agreed to a rare interview

https://audioboom.com/posts/8269824-does-consciousness-survive-death-bigelow-contest-runner-up-michael-tymn-submits-the-evidence

He clarified for me that he is not a scientist, academician or researcher, per se, and says his interest in psychical research is as a historian. His primary efforts in this regard over the past 20 years has been to make the old research – between 1850 and 1930 – known to the public.

Mike was one of the runner-ups, awarded a $50,000 prize, in the Bigelow Essay contest of 2021, on the subject of evidence for life after death. His essay is available to read here. Link. Info on the most recent contest. Link.

Michael’s Question: “Is finding evidence of life on another planet more important than finding evidence of life after death?”

BioMichael Tymn (Tim), a retired insurance claims manager, has been a freelance writer for nearly 70 years. He has written more than 2,000 articles for more than 50 newspapers, magazines, and journals.

He is the author of several books, including The Afterlife Revealed: What Happens After We Die. Amazon.

In his essay, “Long Concealed, Now Revealed – Overwhelming Evidence for Life After Death,” Tymn asserts that there is overwhelming evidence for life after death, citing the work of early psychical researchers, such as Sir William CrookesSir Oliver LodgeGovernor Nathaniel P. Tallmadge and Professor Hare, who conducted experiments with mediums that produced evidence of spirit communication.

Example: Witness: Governor Nathaniel P. Tallmadge.
With another medium, Calhoun asked Tallmadge to bring
a guitar to their next meeting. He did so and placed it on a drawer, no one touching it.

Tallmadge testified: “The guitar was touched softly and gently, and gave forth sweet and delicious sounds, like the accompaniment to a beautiful and exquisite piece of music. It then played a sort of symphony, in much louder and bolder tones.
 P 14.

In other works, Tymn also discusses the work of contemporary researchers, such as DrRaymond Moody and Dr. Bruce Greyson, who have studied near-death
experiences and past-life memories. Tymn concludes that the evidence for life after death
is overwhelming and it can help us to live our lives with more purpose and meaning.

Consciousness beyond physical embodiment

Here is a short video example of my interactive nightlight. I channel and this is the counterpart of that. Activity has been ongoing for 25 years. The frequency is now more intermittent as there is an intentional effort by ‘the Energy’ to maintain the life of the bulb.



I delayed cleaning the power strip because I was worried it was worn out. And, sure enough, I cleaned the power strip and it died [September.23]. The nightlight is now on a new power strip. I find it fascinating to have been able to have this interaction continue for decades now – when I initially expected it to stop at any moment.

Beyond what we think we know – we are surrounded by unknown wonders. Normal? Paranormal? Supra-normal? Unexplained. I hesitate applying a name or label because I think we have more to learn about what is possible.

As we evolve our awareness, we will discover some of our experiences and encounters have been mislabeled, misinterpreted, and, as a result, entirely misunderstood.

Random thoughts and random links - Paranormal and miscellaneous

Thinking you have to read all the unread books on your shelves before buying new ones is like thinking a wine connoisseur should drink everything in their cellar before buying any new bottles. Some books just need a bit of shelf-time before they (/you) are ready. - Shakespeare & Company via Twitter.

All thought is telepathic, whether in the conscious, subconscious, or supraconscious realms. It is impossible to shield our thoughts/beliefs against their radiating outwards since, “all that is” is definitely interconnected in manifold forms, ways, and byways.

From a DVD of John Keel giving a lecture at a FortFest in the 1990’s where he describes watching from a hilltop on the West Virginia side of the Ohio River, as boatmen flashed their bright lights up into the sky at the strange lights that were skittering about.

He describes how the lights would dash away from the beams of the boat’s lights. Then, Keel tells how he used his own powerful flashlight to signal the aerial lights, in Morse code, telling them to flash, or descend or ascend, and they would do as requested. Which gave him pause. use.

They either knew Morse code, or were reading his mind. In order to see which possibility was correct, he made up his own code on the spot, and signaled them—and the lights reacted appropriately.

The way ahead 2022 – foretelling

The guides are prompting me – my night dreams have shifted with the day. Clocks are stopping. Lights flashing. Computers freezing. Tingles on my body.

I am given the instruction to use [color] light blue to assist in healing – whatever method applies – meditation or surrounding my environment with shades to reflect the tones and elevate my being.

Seating myself in the dream to watch the dancers come to the floor. Something magical this way reveals – in being. Aloft and flowing – dancing the dream to light. 2022 has a few surprises in store.
