Review of: A Voice From The Light (Magnus Guides, Vol. 2)

This video presents a fascinating insight into the mediumship of Colin Fry and the overall subject of successful physical mediumship. At the beginning, Colin says the video is to develop, extend and expand upon what had been presented in the previous one, and this is certainly achieved.
The video not only presents Colin working as a medium, but Colin as a person, including photographs of him as a youngster with his family. This serves as an important reminder that mediums are persons rather than merely information-relaying machines as some would appear to view them.

There are also several lengthy pieces of Magnus talking, some of which are occasions of 'question and answer sessions' with audience members. In these, Magnus is asked a wide range of questions, and he deals with the relevant subjects: these cover a wide range of issues such as reincarnation, suicide, animal survival, unacceptable mediumship and euthanasia, to name but a few. In one of his talks, Magnus discusses the passage from this world to the next and how some are unable to accept this transition due to obsession with the earth and the physical realm. In this respect he mentions the work of rescue circles and how Spirit works in co-operation with circle members to assist those who have gone astray.
Part of the video has Magnus recalling his earthly life and with obvious sadness he describes how he was governed by materialism. Having described his earthly life as a 'waste', he warns that we should not waste those opportunities which arise. As Magnus speaks of his mistakes, the video presents imagery of the period when Magnus lived. During this time, and others, there is a pleasant musical background.

As in 'Magnus Guides', the video includes a clever alternation between Colin and Magnus. On one of the several occasions when Colin speaks about his mediumship, he refers to his work overseas and mentions how on these travels he has realized the good fortune of Spiritualists in Britain with their history, writers, and network of churches lacking in so many countries overseas.
He stresses that such journeys overseas are not glamorous but hard work and undertaken to spread the message of Spirit with the reward of knowing he has been able to provide evidence to sitters. He adds that wherever he goes, he encounters the same type of person - those who are receptive, or sceptical, or wholly cynical and unwilling to accept any form of evidence.

The video, lasting 89 minutes, does not suddenly end as so often happens with recordings, but gently finishes with a series of photographs and imagery which cannot fail to move anyone who is watching. I cannot do anything but warmly recommend this video.
