MODERN MEDIUMS

THE DYNAMICS – A HYPOTHESIS

The reader by now must wonder, what are the physiological and psychological dynamics involved in producing
this phenomena called channeling if indeed it is a fantasy of the imaginative/creative resources of the mind
experiences of solely human origin.
(If channeling is real one can throw out this entire discourse)

I can present two appropriate analogies that immediately come to mind to illustrate the phenomenon of
channeling, based in part on the extensive research that Sadler has personally experienced, which I hope will at
least partially contribute to an understanding of the dynamics involved with the subconscious memory bank of
one’s acquired personal information.

OUR PERSONAL TAPE LIBRARY

The collective subconscious is merely that complex level of mind below the level of immediate awareness (the
unconscious, embracing all stored memories). Those experiences that one is not immediately aware of are
stored in a vast warehouse (library) of information in the shallow recesses on one’s own mind. Think of a
personal mental library of thousands of video tapes stored and classified on shelves of your personal mental
library. You may have them classified or catalogued under personal experiences – cars you may have owned,
pets you have had, grandparents, girl friends, boy friends, etc. All are presently below the level of awareness, but
the experiences are recorded and stored somewhere in the recesses of the mind; to bring a tape to the surface
one has only to think of a particular tape; let’s say a past friend, for example Barbara, a life long friend. When the
name Barbara comes to mind almost automatically a  picture comes to mind and we bring up the awareness of
an experience; from there we can mentally fast forward or rewind to any memorable event, and can even
consciously create scenarios of what we should have done or could have done during any social interaction of
the past. In other words we can fantasize in any direction we wish to go – the experience being manipulated by
the conscious mind. Unbeknownst to us in our subconscious library Barbara’s tape might be on a shelf next to
Betty, Brenda, Camille or Carol, etc. When we think of anyone, or thing, or event, a video tape emerges and the
mind can then direct the images to the area one wishes to recall – one can go backwards or forwards in time as
one wills. The same is true with any event experienced in one’s life as long as we can recall it. By the time one is
only a teenager there are already thousands upon thousands of mentally recorded tapes. We are essentially a
living computer. In 1934 when our revelation came through there were no computers of any kind – therefore the
Book describes the Frandalanks and Chronoldeks as living machines. They classify and store information, but
apparently are alive. My computer is getting a little rusty - hopefully will get a better one on the mansion worlds. In
today’s world, in some respects, our mechanical satellite computers are actually better than our own brain –
memory. Everything is recorded and retrieved as it was placed in the memory bank.

Now what is peculiar and quite different from the satellite computer (at least in their present state – according to
Sadler) is the capacity to invent. Sadler maintains that on a level below our awareness this subconscious
storage bin entirely bypasses our conscious clearing house of the images emerging into our consciousness. It
possesses on its own the capacity to create related images – to invent things that have not really been
experienced, giving rise to a reality feeling that in the case of channelers might be entirely unreal.

SYNOPSIS

As previously mentioned in part three under THE PSYCHOLOGY OF SELF DECEPTION more specifically the
imaginative powers of mind, and in the same section THE REALITY FEELING – TRANSFERENCE AND
PROJECTION these mental impressions from an outside source of information (celestial beings, etc.) actually
emanate from a somewhat deceiving aspect of an individual’s own mind – a level of interaction easily attributed
to a celestial entity, but according to Sadler comes entirely from within, from a mind fabricating its own thoughts;
thoughts obviously confirmed by the conscious clearing house of that mind, based entirely on the pseudo-reality
that since they have not been consciously experienced and recorded they must have come from another source.
Being that these sensory images (spiritual messages) remain outside the purview of the channeler, his/her
limited understanding convinces them of the reality of an external source – something Sadler discounts and has
aptly defined, and something that has been made clear throughout this report. This is a quite common mistake,
an almost ubiquitous mistake among all channelers according to psychological investigators. This sort of self
delusion usually appears, as has been noted above in individuals who have a deep desire to reach out to the
mysterious world of the spiritual unknown in order to activate their own desires for confirmation of their own
spiritual existence and an inordinate self generated need to express their own acquired spiritual needs to others
via their associations with what they believe to be valid sources of spiritual information – celestial beings from
on high.
