Montague Keen - Society for Psychical Research

featuring Montague Keen


This was the last major interview with Montague Keen before he passed away. Within one month of Montague passing away, his wife reported to American parapsychology expert Gary Schwartz that the spirit of Montague had spoken to her.

This event was evidence in itself that our personalities survive the death of the physical body.

Montague Keen is here talking about the Society for Psychical Research (SPR) which was formed in 1882 by a group of scientists, philosophers and poets assosciated with Trinity College Cambridge. Together with a group of spiritualists they set about to investigate the paranormal.

This partly came about as a reaction to Darwin's Origin of the Species, and was an attempt to bring objective, scientific discipline to the investigation of the paranormal.

Topics include cross correspondances, extra sensory perception (esp), telepathy, psychic communication, séances, mediums, messages from the dead, death, the soul, the afterlife, orthodox scientific materialist view vs alternative spirituality.
