In recent years, the paranormal has gained new footing as
reality television has grabbed onto this research and created a
cultural frenzy around it. There are those who are skeptics, those
who believe, and those who seek to prove the existence of the
paranormal. In The Double-Blind Ghost Box, authors Shawn Taylor and
Daniel Morgan share their research and personal experiences with
the paranormal, focusing on the development and use of the ghost
box, a device that can establish a two-way communication beyond
death's veil.
The Double-Blind Ghost Box reviews the process of Taylor and
Morgan's studies of the device, along with how they determined its
usefulness in researching the paranormal. They explore the history
of the ghost box and the issues arising in today's ghost box
methods, and they offer methods for conducting an objective ghost
box investigation, processing ghost box evidence, analyzing the
findings, and presenting the results to clients. Taylor and Morgan
also discuss the different spirits an investigation might uncover
and future ghost box applications and technologies.
Sharing actual transcripts of investigations, The Double-Blind
Ghost Box works toward communicating the existence of the
paranormal through objective research.
Shawn Taylor has a technical background in computer hardware,
software, programming, digital media, Six Sigma problem solving,
statistical analysis, psychology, and counseling.
Daniel Morgan earned degrees in behavioral science and
electrical engineering.
Ranging from the 18th century to the present and from Beacon Hill
to windswept Cape Ann, Holly Nadler's collection of true ghost
stories from Boston and its environs offers a varied sampling of
supernatural phenomena. Many of these tales offer a satisfying dose
of ghoulish and frightening details; others are colored with a
certain poignancy or even humor.
Archangel Michael taught interactive healing to author Rekha
Vidyarthi; through this technique, she has assisted the healing
process in people for sixteen years. Michael said to her "You need
to heal yourself in order to heal others." Written with Jesus's
guidance, Healing Hands of Jesus illustrates how you can choose to
change the karmic things and past lives that are happening right
now. Angels heal many lives at once by healing one personality and
integrating one fragment at a time into the higher self, shortening
the incarnation of a troubled past and present. Every experience in
life is created by unconscious thoughts. Your outer situation
triggers your innermost emotions and feelings. The mind requires
answers in order to change one's perspective. Because most answers
lie either in childhood or in a past life, it is necessary to look
within. The angels trigger our memories to identify the connection,
which is when healing begins. Such things as parental imprinting,
family karma, ego, anger, fear, guilt, sadness, depression, or
learned behavior perpetuate from one life to the next. These issues
repeat themselves through many lives until we learn how to heal the
issues. Healing Hands of Jesus explains that we must ask
forgiveness for the negative things that are happening to us now in
order to heal ourselves.
This is book two of a trilogy. The first book titled; Awake, Arise
and Triumph and subtitled Book 1 - God's Original Intent spoke of
the period from Genesis 1: 1 of the Holy Bible through the time
that man fell (Genesis 3: 6) being decieved of Satan. This second
book titled; Awake, Arise and Triumph and subtitled Book 2 - God's
Road to Redemption reviews creation, the fall of man and the
mechanism by which Satan worked to decieve Adam. And how he
contines to work in our lives to our detriment. Than praise God we
see how our Redeemer, our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ is revealed
in the Old Covenant on the Road of God's mercy.
