"Tonio, Sie sind hart wie Stein, wenn Sie treffen wollen." Agnes E. Meyer. Sie war seine Gönnerin, er war ihr Briefpartner von 1937 an bis zu seinem Tod 1955. Obwohl Thomas Mann von der nahezu grenzenlosen Bewunderung erheblich profitierte, die ihm Agnes E. Meyer entgegenbrachte, sah er ihre Hilfe bisweilen als störende Einmischung in sein Leben. Im Gegenzug erwartete Agnes E. Meyer ein gewisses Maß an Aufmerksamkeit und nahm für sich das Recht in Anspruch, ihn zu kritisieren und ihm Ratschläge zu erteilen.

After exploring a few other religions, I eventually tried Spiritualism even though Christianity had misled me with its teachings against it. In Spiritualism, I found a simple religion, one accepting of all people, one ...

Spiritualism is not about fraudulent psychics and fortunetellers. It’s not about communication with demonic spirits as I was taught by other churches. It’s about the reason we are here, proof of continued life, and it’s about following the Laws of Nature: God’s laws. It’s something that, if fully understood and practiced by all, would bring peace to our world. The Christian Church introduced me to The Way. Spiritualism has revealed so much more to me about the Spirit.

Life is full of mysteries, the afterlife chief among them. But what if there were answers to be had?

Swinging With the Spirits explores the use of a dowsing pendulum for communication with the Spirit World, offering suggestions and instructions for selecting and using a pendulum, and even sharing many of the answers the author has received from his own Loved Ones in Spirit, or "LOIS", as he calls them. After a concise introduction to the use of a ...
