A Letter from the Founder

Dear Friend,

One of the major influences on me and my spiritual practice was the late Arthur Ford. Arthur was a famous medium from Ft Pierce, Florida who initially struggled with his spiritual abilities and experiences, but was later taught how to harness and express his spiritual gifts by the Indian mystic Yogananda. In his life, Arthur maintained a deep connection with the other side and was a master of spiritual communication.

Perhaps Arthur’s most famous claim to fame was in connection with the famous magician Harry Houdini. It was Arthur who carried Houdini’s proof of life after death message back to his wife Beatrice who confirmed that it was the exact same message upon which she and her husband had agreed before his untimely death. Houdini had promised then that, if indeed there was an afterlife, he would find a way to get word back to her to prove it.

Arthur Ford was a spiritual pioneer who spent his life entire life expressing and developing ways and means of spiritual communication. In 1971 he made his transition to the other side. I had worked with Arthur the last five years of his life as his personal assistant and was with him at his passing.

In 1974, Arthur came to me in a psychic vision. In that moment, I saw the process, method, and direction for a new concept of mediumship. The new concept was introduced to sensitive individuals selected from a cross section of the country. Those first students experienced a spiritual reality that far surpassed their greatest expectations.

This training method, In-Depth Channeling, is timeless, and continues to prove most effective, empowering, and inspiring. The experiences and methods of spiritual communication learned have significant value in the daily lives of our students, many of who choose to continue their studies with our school to further develop and use their spiritual gifts and intuitive abilities professionally to help others.

Science is coming to understand what mystics have always known. We can use our spiritual gifts to be of greater service to our fellow man. The gifts of healing, wisdom, and spiritual communication can be developed to help us live our lives with greater depth, purpose, and direction. We can choose to develop our intuitive and spiritual abilities to share greater love, peace, joy and healing with all who are in our presence, or who step upon our paths.

In Love and Light,
Patricia Hayes
