061 - Dancing with Spirits with Gary Moody
Manage episode 413637845 series 2847263
My guest today is Gary Moody, mediumship apprentice, spirit artist and anthropologist. All of these attributes are combined in Gary’s anthropological research which is focused on his own development as a medium within a global spiritualist community. One of the things that fascinates me is the way non-physical consciousnesses interact with physical consciousnesses, the way we perceive and are influenced by them and how this process changes as we make it more conscious. This is a topic Gary is exploring in his own body and mind and provides some practical insights about. One of the guiding principles of this podcast is that of disbelief - don’t believe in anything, experiment, have your own experiences. One of the interesting things about Gary’s approach is that despite having many experiences some of us - myself included - would interpret as interactions with non-physical consciousness, he maintains a scientifically admirable ambiguous attitude, at once open to the possibility that spirits are real, while allowing for the possibility that our experiences of them arise from deep psychological material. Ultimately Gary’s focus is on how we can improve people’s well-being and mental health rather than the reality of the experiences. We eventually turn to questions about studying mediumship including spirit art in an academic context with Gary introducing several academic fraemworks applied to the study of mediumship
