God Spot Activity
January 2, 2009 on 5:19 am | In Spiritual Experiences, The God Spot | 4 CommentsMelvin has recently shared an email with me from our friend Lance, wondering if the God Spot was fantasy, or an open channel. Well I can begin by simply saying, I am 100% sure without even a shadow of a doubt that the God Spot is an open channel. (as an aside, I believe all things that exist have movement- if it didn’t move then we wouldn’t have any sense of it)
Lance is grieving the loss of his daughter. Melvin is writing an essay about it, and it will be in the articles to download section. Lance shared a spiritual experience he had recently: (Lance, I’m going to just summarize, let me know if it is inaccurate)
He had fallen asleep on the couch one night and was alone. He heard a voice that sounded like his daughter but not at an age he ever heard, and she sounded happy. He woke up, but fell asleep later, and was in that sort of barely asleep stage (I am familiar with it and I believe I once had an out-of-body experience during that time- I’ll explain it in another post maybe). So anyway he saw a light on and there was a young woman, not his daughter, and she sort of “brought out” his dog who died 3 weeks before his daughter. He was alive and licked him and Lance could smell him. When it was over, he could still smell his dog.
The smell is a very good sign. Melvin will tell a story about spiritual smells, when he comments on my blog. I have a very sensitive nose too, and I smell spiritual things. Often times I smell flowers when there is a good spirit or maybe an angel nearby. I smell my grandma’s house sometimes (I actually thought once that our house smelled like hers, but her house was very old, from the 1800’s and our house is only 5 years old) and then I got a message from her. This is kind of a side story, but I must share it. Melvin and I and our kids went to a Spiritist Conference in Florida, and there was a woman I never met before, who was walking by, coming out of the conference room and I was just standing outside the door. She just stopped and told me my Grandma said that everything was alright and (the woman pointed at my toddler Melody) said that I now have what I lost. Another woman walked up to me and said she had a vision that I had a miscarriage in the past. I had, it was the pregnancy before I had Melody. She said that Melody was the same child.
So to make a long story short, I’ve learned a lot of spiritual things that are very good evidence of the reality of it, one of them is that smell is a very good indicator.
Okay one more story. We used to have like 7 or 8 smoke alarms all through the house. We also have a heat detecting fire alarm connected to our alarm system, and we also have a plug in carbon monoxide detector that came with the house (I suppose because we have gas heat). Anyway we have taken down all of the smoke alarms except the one connected to our alarm system and the CO detector. When I was a child there was a fire in our apartments. Half of our building was burnt down completely, we were the second from the end that didn’t burn. The very next apartment towards the burnt half had to be evacuated because of smoke and water damage. We didn’t have to move, but for a long time you could smell that wet burnt smell and it haunted me. I was very young, but I think someone died in the fire. Our apartments had the kind of fire alarms that were big red bells in each stairwell. There was one just on the other side of my bedroom wall. That one had a short in it, and sometimes it would just go off for no reason. It became the object of a lot of anxiety when I was a kid. My mom still lives in that apartment, 30 years later. They have fixed that bell and replaced parts, and even changed the whole system to where you have to call the fire department (It used to be automatic, but there were too many false alarms). And to this day it still shorts out sometimes. Anyway back to our smoke alarms in our house. One night I had some kind of dream, I can’t remember now, but I smelled smoke, and that old burnt smell. Then we were woke up by all of the alarms going off, and there was no fire. They weren’t steady going off, they were all just beeping and beeping. The last one Melvin took down, still beeped after he took the battery out! After I got over being so shaken by it all, we talked about it and I realized there really was a boy that died in the fire. I even wonder if he was around, or with me for all these years. I can almost say I know what it feels like to die in a fire. It seemed like he was satisfied after that day and I haven’t felt him around anymore.
I hope this isn’t too much. I have had a lot of spiritual experiences in my life. I guess that might have something to do with my soul mate ending up to be the leader in near-death studies, and spiritual science.

Pauline,
Thanks. Yes you got it right, very good summary. I wish I could get to the point of the matter sometimes quickly. But as I stated to Dr. Morse, we seemed to be so programed to be doubters of these experiences that you should be proud he works so hard to be scientific about these matters. I see with both of you the future of joining science back up with the spiritual world we come from. I just got a email from Dr. Morse this evening and thought I would look up your Blog site and amazed you must have just written this. Thank you. Thank you both. Happy New Year Lance

Unusual smells are a sign of right temporal activity. Patients with right temporal lobe seizures, for example, often smell foul, fragrent, or other unusual smells (of things that are not present).
It was Vernon Neppe MD, former director of Neuropsychiatry at the University of Washington who first made this connection between right temporal lobe experiences and paranormal experiences. He noticed that people who reported what he termed “subjective paranormal experiences” (ESP scrambled, get it, Vernon is very funny), often reported unusual smells, prickly feelings along the back of the neck, cold chills, and other well known right temporal lobe based experiences. He and I did a study of people who reported paranormal experiences, and of those who could actually validate their experiences (for example, wrote something in a diary before it occured) they had clusters of these symptoms on standardized questionnaires of right temporal lobe experiences.
Vernon tells the following funny story illustrating his absolute confidence in this association. He was visiting a lighthouse on the coast of Washington State, and was chatting with the lighthouse keeper. The keeper told him, “I love working here, there are always wonderful fragrent smells of flowers, all the time!” Vernon looked around, and he saw no flowers.
He immediately said to the man “tell me about your dreams that come true”, and the man turned white, and said “how did you know about them! I have never told anyone about them!”
Indeed, fragrent smells have been assoicated with the paranormal throughout history, and an old English expression for those who are “psychic” is that they “smell lavender”.

Hello Pauline,
This is Lance Beem’s “Medium”, Tanya Montague, I am so happy to have seen this posted. I encourage people on a daily basis to continue to open their minds to the “unknown”. My persanal NDE’s not only an amazing journey(s), they gave me the guidence to teach other’s cope with loss, and over all became the stregnth of my ability to connect with the “other-side” and with the living who can not commmunicate on their own. Thank you and Dr. Morse for continuing this journey. I wish you nothing bu the best in all you do!
Blessing’s,
Tanya Montague

Hi Tanya,
Thanks for the above post and I thank you for your kind words. However. . . . .
You are my first “test case” to see if I can apply the principals of controlled remote viewing to mediumnistic experiences. Controlled remote viewing is a system of sorting thoughts into various catagories. It has been proven to be very successful at identifying what perceptions are coming from the Universe at large, and which are our own mental processes.
My speculation is that by applying the same sorting protocol to the medium, we can see what is true insight and vision and what is analytic overlay from the medium.
So, please don’t be mad at me if it turns out I find that your medium visions with regard to that one particular case are analytic overlay and not “real”. Please keep in mind I am testing a protocol, not trying to validate the “reality” of the experiences, which are ultimately a matter of faith.
Melvin
