The Sanctuary


In 2007 a small group of interested people decided to set up a
home circle dedicated to learning and understanding more about Physical
Mediumship.
This circle was named the Bristol Spirit Lodge - as Chris, whose home
hosted the circle and who created the idea, lived in Bristol at the time.
The BSL grew and evolved over time with many sitters and mediums coming
and going. I myself developed my own abilities as a Trance and Transfiguration
medium but the hoped for physical phenomena didn't appear to be on the agenda.
Much of the early development records as experienced by myself are
recorded in this blog up to the point where I really felt I was unable to add
anything new to the record.

In May 2013, some 5 yrs down the line, the BSL has relocated to Clevedon
and gone from strength to strength. Numerous new home circles have spun off and
have set up on their own and links to many others have been created
6 months ago, a young lady, wife and Mum contacted Chris to enquire
about physical mediumship. One thing led to another and she has now been sitting
in her own circle within the BSL for development with some amazing results. The
speed and level of her development has been stunning.

A few months ago, her spirit team who have been communicating through
direct voice whilst Emily has been in deep trance, told us that they wished to
form a small closed circle to sit weekly with a handful of dedicated sitters in
support to start what they called the “serious work”.

Last week was the inaugural sitting of the closed circle and what
follows below will be my own subjective account of my personal experiences
during this and subsequent sittings.
Chris will continue to update her own account of course on the BSL
on-line diary. My own diary in no way replaced these, this is just my own
personal record for my own interest and for anyone else who wants to follow.

March 23rd 2007

This is an extra post recording a communication from a Spirit person identifying himsekf as 'Brother John' that happened during the Friday night circle. Friday night's are orientated around the development of two trance mediums (David & Brian).

I thought I'd post his here becasue the content relates directly to the work we are doing within the Tuesday Physical circle.

I wasn't present myself. The text below is a transcript of the audio recording made of the sitting.
Chris' comments are in italic.




Sitters: Christine. David. Dave. Helen.

Good evening
Nice to see you again

Thank you
As I come close the brother is um….
We welcome you

We welcome you too…
Thank you
There is a healing energy here tonight, it is an energy which you all need. As we have said many times there is a blending process and it is important that you remember that many energies will be incorporated into this Sanctuary. It is not that it is of a random nature you must understand it is necessary for the different bodies and functions that this Sanctuary will be used for.

Thank you for your help
You must understand that within the universal field there are many many energies. There are energies that are not used on the earthly plane. And these energies can be incorporated into this earthly system
There are times when you are very very impatient, but we understand your human frailty
There are things happening all of the time. Many things you have already noticed. There are many things which you have Not noticed and it will come to pas that much more will happen.There is an understanding. There is a great debate upon this Sanctuary

What is this debate?
The debate is taking place within your experience and the debate is taking place from your vision and from your hearing. The debate is taking place among ourselves. It is necessary that the correct energy is incorporated, and this can take awhile.
And as I say awhile, you must understand the times we have spoken about your perception, and your perception of Time.

The trouble is I am living in physical form and I’m afraid I might leave physical form before I finish this job!
You must not have those sort of thoughts, those are negative thoughts. I know that you jest but you must not think that way.

Will we have more sounds in this building, because those are the things we….
You are going to ask me for a time scale and I am not able and I Will Not give you those sort of thoughts. It is for you to understand that the energy IS here and it IS being blended and as I have said before there will be unexpected experiences which you may not understand. But that is not to say that it has not happened.

Will we have physical phenomena here, will beings be able to move around here with us
They Have…and you Know they have don’t you! You have heard, You are trying to move forward too much. You seem to forget the things which Have happened here.

Yes. Yes!

Will we be touched by physical beings….?
I will not be drawn on that! We know what you expect, for you talk about this often.

I am a pain in the butt …
You are enthusiastic. But we know.

Is the dome on the table of any use, is spirit going to use it at all? Is it useful to them?
There are two different energies. Once again, you must remember that in places where this has happened those energies did take awhile and once again you are trying to move too fast. When these energies are ready you will See! Yes! You hesitate? You doubt?

Yes…well..no…now and again!
More than now and again! I speak on behalf of others who you talk to, so you must have patience. You must have understanding. You must have acceptance. These are qualities that you find difficult.
You must know that your thoughts are received. Yes? Yes?

Yes…ummm…
You have doubts! It does not help your cause to have those negative thoughts….they are negative. You must endeavour to have positive thoughts.

Right.
Right!
