🥳APPORT MEDIUMSHIP🥳

[BigJohn]

I have witnessed Apport Mediumship.

Has anybody else had such experiences?

What is that?

[Native spirit]

Apport mediumship is the transportation of an inanimate object done through the medium.
some have proven to be true but some have also been proven to be false.


Namaste

Thank you for that.

In 'our realm', some have claimed some things have disappeared and reappeared somewhere else. Some have claimed some things have appeared all by them self and they were not somewhere else. Apport Mediumship is considered by some Spiritualist to be the highest form of Mediumship. Even before Modern Day Spiritualism, this kind of activity was common in the various religions by different names.

Apportation of living flowers has also been reported and apported objects are said to be sent as tokens, small gifts, from friends in the
so-called world of the spirit.

Apports may be a characteristic of the mediumship of certain individuals and are certainly of interest and curiosity value but as with other phenomena they should not distract us from the primary purposes of mediumship.

The expression "with other phenomena they should not distract us from the primary purpose of mediumship' might not hold water. The reason I say that is that in some versions of Modern Day Spiritualism that might be true but this subheading is not under Spiritualism.

To support my position, the Hebrews had their manna which might be considered one of the greatest apports of all times.

And then if we look into some of the other religions, you might be surprised how 'apports' have played major roles in their respective religions.

What should be remembered is that the production of apports doesn't show evidence of life-after-death, one of the most important two attributes of mediumship. I'm speaking about the present day, of course, and not about ancient historical times.

Indeed the point can be argued - and I often have - that experiencing the production of physical phenomena may be of more interest to certain individuals than their finding evidence of life beyond the grave...... Many years ago the President of the Noah's Ark Society (physical mediumship) and I fell out about that point. (later we became great friends)

I hope you won't misunderstand what I've said. I would be VERY interested to learn how our friends unseen can de-materialise a solid object, move it and then cause it to re-materialise in a different place. That's what happens with an apported object - apports are not objects brought from another dimension.

I'm sure you realise I'm already totally on-board about survival? I know that it's our spirit friends who do this for our pleasure and entertainment. I see apports as trivia, something done for fun.

Reflecting on the thread title over a gin I got to thinking that I hadn't ever heard of a term 'apport mediumship'......

I've heard of mental mediumship, physical mediumship, evidential mediumship, clairvoyant mediumship, healing mediumship and a few others; but not 'apport mediumship'. Thinking about things further I'd really only heard about apports (and occasionally asports) in connection with, and as a side-issue to, physical mediumship. Evidential mediumship is by far the most helpful form of mediumship as far as I'm concerned, no matter what form of mediumship brings about persuasive evidence of survival and identity of the spirit individuals communicating.

As always I'm speaking about recent times and not about historical events.

Following the quirky road 'backwards' in time, an interesting 'person' shows up on the road. His name was Doctor Guillaume Pascal Billot. He might have been the person Blind-fold Billet/Billot may have been named after, which is something Spiritualists seem to enjoy demonstrating as part of their Mediumship. This chap witnessed Apports during a séance on March 5, 1819. This was almost 3 decades before the Fox Sisters and Mother reinvigorated Spiritualism which later became known as Modern Day Spiritualism.

On the other hand, billet also means ticket, note, etc. in French. To get a feel for Blindfold Billets, I have posted a link to a blog that goes into great detail on how it is done. You can read it here: http://spiritcommunion.blogspot.com/...t-reading.html

If you look at other religions/belief systems, Apports show up but are not labeled Apports. They can be recognized as Miracles and in some cases, 'recognized' as a normal occurrence in their particular religion as it is in Hinduism.
