It is believed that before we developed speech, our prehistoric forebears communicated their thoughts and feelings telepathically. In fact, 19th century playwright and mystic, Maurice Maeterlinck, once wrote, we only developed the art of speaking so that we could tell lies. Whether or not the latter is true, the fundamental principle of mediumship is telepathy; that is mind to mind communication, albeit, one disembodied mind. Mediums are greatly misunderstood, and even today there is a lot of ignorance surrounding exactly what they do. The majority of those who dismiss psychics and mediums as farfetched and fanciful really base their opinions on their experiences with those who are not genuine and not very good ambassadors for this wonderful skill. There are many of these around today. In fact, the majority of these have become so good at deceiving those who consult them, they very often come across as genuine, and even the methods they employ frequently appear as genuine mediumship, which, of course, they are not. If you have no understanding of what and what mediumship is not, it is very difficult to discriminate between what is genuine and what is not.
In fact, to a sceptic, mediums are damned if they do, and damned if they don’t. Regardless of how good a genuine medium is, the opinion of a sceptic will never change.
