Evidences for Survival of Bodily Death
1. Mediumship
A medium is a person through whom spirits are supposed to communicate. The main counter argument is “psi capacities of the medium” as against communication from a genuine departed soul. Among the different euphemistic phenomena / the most important one is the “cross-correspondence experiments” where a dead psychical researcher is supposed to communicate using a language which is unknown to the medium and different parts of the same message coming through different mediums in different countries.
2. Possession
Possession is apparent possession of the body of a victim by a spirit without his wanting it.
3. Apparition
This is what is commonly known as ghosts. Many apparitions are telepathic or can be explained by the ESP hypothesis.
4. Reincarnation
This is the apprent remembrance of a past life by a person either through spontaneous recollection in early childhood or by past life regression methods.
5. OBE
Out of the body experiences can be natural and spontaneous or induced by voluntary astral projection methods.
6. NDE
Near death experiences are experiences of a person between clinical death and regaining normal consciousness through resuscitation.
