As with the study of any natural
phenomenon, bringing mediumship into the regulated environment of
the laboratory allows for the controlled and repeated examination
of anomalous information reception by mediums. It also lends statistically
analyzed evidence regarding the survival of consciousness hypothesis
and addresses the relationship between consciousness and brain. Ideally,
laboratory- based mediumship research includes 2 equally important
factors: (a) a research environment that optimizes the mediumship
process for both the medium and the hypothesized discarnate and (b)
research methods that maximize the experimental blinding of the medium,
the rater, and the experimenter in order to eliminate all conventional
explanations for the information and its accuracy and specificity.
The Windbridge Institute for Applied Research in Human Potential utilizes
several methods that build upon historical as well as modern mediumship
investigations in order to meet these 2 research goals. The research
methods discussed include: detailed research reading protocols; the
pairing and formatting of readings; experimental blinding; the thorough
screening of all research participants; and a specific scoring system
used by raters.
___________
The analysis of information conveyed by mediums (individuals
who report experiencing regular communication with the deceased) is
important for several reasons:
- The survival of consciousness
- investigating the phenomenon of anomalous information reception
(air) by mediums is essential in understanding the mind’s perception
and processing of nonlocal, nonsensory information.
- An extensive understanding of the information mediums report and
the process by which they report it is necessary in order for such
information to be sensibly utilized by society.
- Providing empirical evidence on a topic historically linked with
religion (i.e., the afterlife) may greatly impact modern society as
well as contemporary western healthcare.
- Finally, survival and mediumship studies provide unique evidence
for an issue central to consciousness science: the relationship between
the mind/consciousness and the brain.
