Popularity of Paranormal Investigations Motivates Mark Russell Bell to Share Insights The metaphysical author and blogger is offering pointers about what is important to remember concerning research into unexplained phenomena. In my youth, I'd read books about poltergeists and ufology without accepting anything as unquestionably valid. It was only after my experiences chronicled in Testament that I began to understand what manifestly was the basis for the phenomena. Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) July 9, 2010 -- Mark Russell Bell has shared his unusual experiences in a 1997 nonfiction case study and an Internet website. Now he is offering paranormal investigators some important insights. Mark Russell Bell blogs at http://metaphysicalarticles.blogspot.com Bell reflects, "Many decades of popular supernatural horror films and novels have cultivated for some people a mind-set that craves the sensational and the frightful. You might say that fictional depictions of unexplained phenomena require a suspension of disbelief for entertainment purposes while encountering any such events in your own life requires careful analysis for understanding the meaning of what has happened." At http://metaphysicalarticles.blogspot.com Bell helps readers find noteworthy sources of information relating to metaphysical and spiritual topics. Bell's 1,100-page book Testament derived from tape-recorded interview transcripts and journals to present a record of his responses to startling events at a time in his life when he had only a superficial knowledge of the variety of chronicled cases usually categorized as 'paranormal.' He comments, "In my youth, I'd read books about poltergeists and ufology without accepting anything as unquestionably valid. It was only after my experiences chronicled in Testament that I began to understand what manifestly was the basis for the phenomena." Here are some of Bell's observations for investigators of unexplained phenomena. 1. Perceived instances of psychokinesis / telekinesis in relation to a specific individual should not be attributed to the individual alone but to an unseen intelligence manifesting in proximity to the person. 2. It is often the personal response of someone observing the phenomena that associates the experience with a particular word or familiar concepts such as 'poltergeist,' 'demon,' 'angel,' 'spirit,' or 'alien.' 3. Paranormal investigators should consider how their 'supernatural' beliefs about ghosts and unexplained phenomena correlate with their entire metaphysical orientation that has evolved during the full course of their life experience. 4. Regarding anomalous occurrences involving mystics, psychics, mentalists, etc., consider the concept of a Superconsciousness manifesting through or around specific individuals to expand people's spiritual awareness of what is possible. Eastern wisdom traditions offer words signifying 'Oneness' to remind that all living things are interconnected and each is linked with an all-creative Life Force. 5. I recommend you read my own book (available in a free Internet edition) as well as extensively documented cases of people who've experienced different forms of unexplained or 'psychic' phenomena during previous epochs. Some of these people include Dr. John Dee, Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, Edgar Cayce, and medium Leslie Flint. 6. Concerning legitimate trance channelers, the perspective of entities speaking through a person should be understood as being 'more-knowing' rather than 'all-knowing.' Each individual consciousness unit has a unique perspective based upon one's own life experiences. 7. 'Electronic Voice Phenomena' (EVP) may be obtained anywhere with all varieties of recording devices. Listen closely to unedited radio or TV broadcasts / recordings and you may be surprised.

LOS ANGELES, Calif., – (Marketwire - January 6, 2009) – Mark Russell Bell’s case study book Testament was first published twelve years ago in January 1997. A paperback edition is available and a free Internet edition may be read at http://testament.org

The book resulted after the author interviewed an Oklahoma family experiencing so-called ‘talking poltergeist’ phenomena in 1995. These Q&A transcripts became the first portion of Testament. The family was seen on television in the 1995 ABC special “Ghosts, Mediums, Psychics: Put To The Test” and this footage also aired in the summer of 1996 on “20/20.” Among the phenomena filmed for the special was a diningroom chair moved by an unseen presence.

Upon returning to Los Angeles from Oklahoma, the author continued having unexpected experiences while conducting further interviews. Interview participants included friends and acquaintances working in the Southern California entertainment industry. Bell found his professional background useful in gaining insights about consciousness and creativity. Born in Culver City, he majored in cinema at USC, worked as a talent agent and then as a studio publicist for Paramount Pictures before becoming a metaphysical author.

Another source of interviews for Bell’s book was the Philosophical Research Society in the Los Feliz district of Los Angeles. Founded by Manley Palmer Hall in 1934, the Society has a motto of “Honoring the Wisdom of All Traditions.”

Bell’s upcoming book is My Unexpected Path of Spiritual Discovery, an autobiographical account of his research that includes overviews of famous cases involving ‘paranormal phenomena.’ In his new book, Bell considers surprising evidence for a ‘Spiritual Force’ or ‘Oneness’/‘Superconsciousness.’ Bell suggests scientists err when interpreting findings under the assumption that such a Being as ‘God’ doesn’t exist when instead they should consider that familiar concepts of God are inadequate.

The Internet edition of Testament has a diverse readership throughout the world via the noncommercial website http://testament.org

Mark Russell Bell of Testament.org Will Participate in the Internet's First-Ever Virtual Body Mind Spirit Expo July 27, 28 and 29

LOS ANGELES, July 2, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Mark Russell Bell of www.testament.org will present a streaming lecture about his experiences and research involving unexplained phenomena for The First-Ever Virtual Body Mind Spirit Expo on July 27, 28 and 29 at www.bmse.net/vbmse2/ with free worldwide attendance.

Bell's lecture is entitled "The Paranormal -- Superconscious Manifestation." He will also host the New Consciousness Research Organization virtual booth in the Expo's Centers and Publications virtual hall.

His nonfiction book Testament is available to be read online without charge. The book is a case study presented via question and answer interview transcripts, journals and photographs. Bell's upcoming book is Hollyweird, an autobiographical account of the author's unexpected yet revealing path of spiritual discovery. Before Bell became a metaphysical author, he worked in the entertainment industry as a publicity writer for Paramount Pictures.

The author interviewed an Oklahoma family experiencing 'talking poltergeist' phenomena in 1995 and published these transcripts in Testament. The family was seen on television in the 1995 ABC special "Ghosts, Mediums, Psychics: Put To The Test" and this footage also aired in 1996 on "20/20."

Bell comments, "My experiences and research have shown me that all living things are continuously interacting with an intermediary Superconsciousness or Spiritual Force that may be recognized through circumstances often described as coincidences and synchronicity, intuition and telepathy, prophetic dreams and visions, mediumship and trance channeling, healing, as well as events associated with such expressions as 'hauntings,' 'talking poltergeists' and 'electronic voice phenomena.' This predicament might be articulated as all living things having a shared Subconscious Mind and 'Thought Conductor.' Such expressions as 'Oneness' and 'Christ Consciousness' are also useful."

Testament was published in January 1997. The book's ISBN is 0-9654916-0-9 and the Library of Congress Catalog number is 96-71184. The Internet edition of the book is available without charge at www.testament.org/. The Oracle Press edition is available at www.bn.com/
