The reliability of psychic transmissions and the testing of the spirits

- 20 - • Contact with the world of the hereafter can furnish valuable insights into one’s survival after one’s terrestrial, physical death and remove doubts, if it is conducted based on religious and moral standards, with the required care and attention and a constant plea for God’s help. • But if the rules are not abided by, it can also be the bane of people. The decision of conscientious people to establish contact with the hereafter furnished us with the certainty that our terrestrial demise does not constitute the end of life altogether. But all such attempts must be guided by the commandment: Test the Spirits! A serious prayer to God or Christ asking for their protection prior to any attempt is virtually imperative. 4. The deception practices of otherworldly entities The parapsychologist and author Wilhelm Otto Roesemueller (1902-1978) also reports at length about the deception practices of otherworldly entities. He writes (8, P. 8): “In as far as occultism and spiritism furnish experimental evidence through undeniable phenomena that human beings can consciously exist and act ‘out of body’ as it were already during their life on Earth as well as after their demise, they have dealt materialism a death knell. • Our own experience must however impel us to warn others to not immediately engage in spiritistic experiments without preparations or prior knowledge of the subject. A legion of books exists that provide instructions for the establishment of a spiritistic circle, but only a few amongst them give expedient instructions about how to get rid of spirits in case they get bothersome. The consequences can under certain circumstance be very sad: Possession, insanity, suicide etc. Real spiritism, actually real spiritualism , is an august science and requires experienced teachers, one would not allow a layman hungry for knowledge to deal with chemicals in a laboratory of their own accord or allow him to experiment with highly-charged, life-threatening electrical circuitry. One is therefore justified to demand some kind of preliminary training prior to conducting metaphysical experiments! • We must therefore warn you about blindly hammering away at some experiment. – Apart from elementary beings, only the souls of base, earthbound spirits, those that committed suicide, victims of accidents and an army of shameless lying spirits come to these meetings and they envelop themselves in unctuous talk. This truly beseeching warning comes from no other than my highly regarded, fatherly friend G. W. Surya , a conscientious pundit and mystic graced by God, ergo from a practical man! The naturalist Dr. Fritz Quade had the same experiences as Surya and my friend Dr. Herbert Fritsche , an expert in parapsychology, assessed this as follows: ‘He was universally educated from a natural-science point of view and precise to the last detail and he wasn’t just an avant-garde in respect to the hereafter – not somebody that speculated in contrast to researching metaphysics – he was a representative of a universal, academically refined occultism, the like is very hard to find in Germany. One cannot imagine the history of occidental occultism without the merit he gained over decades in regards to strict and critical research into mediumships.’ Well, this sharp and critical thinker personally told me about his experiences with the world of spirit. During the time he was clairaudient he became convinced that otherworldly beings are constantly around us. They are very pleased when they are able to talk to people. They were highly interested in everything that dealt with philosophy, they questioned and also contradicted Dr. Quade when he talked about the development of spirits, ergo for them to adopt a better attitude and show greater love. They disputed the existence of very good and also very evil spirits and also disputed that they harassed Dr. Quade because they were influenced by evil spirits and acted on their behalf. Dr. Quade said this concerning this matter: ‘They were at their most malicious at the beginning of the period (Dr. Quade’s period of clairaudience) when I heard everything without actually listening. They said that they hated me because I was genuinely honest and didn’t wanted to harm others, something spirits that can read all minds hardly ever come across and because I believed that there was a wise creator and good, eminent spirits; all they wanted to do was engage me in an experiment to
