Have you ever wondered what took place when Gordon Higginson demonstrated in some of the largest halls around the country? In this article written by Maurice Barbanell for Psychic News, we are given an insight into the quality of Gordon’s demonstration to 2,000 people at the City Hall in Newcastle in 1973. Maurice Barbanell was the speaker at this event and Gordon was the demonstrator. Here is the article in full:

WHEN A CLAIRVOYANT KNOWS HE MUST BE RIGHT – BY MAURICE BARBANELL

I still found it fascinating, despite having seen hundreds of public demonstrations of clairvoyance, to watch one of its finest exponents at work at Newcastle-upon-Tyne last week. SNU president Gordon Higginson’s display must have impressed even the toughest sceptics among the nearly 2,000 people in the City Hall.

His clairvoyance combines the accumulation of striking details, reminiscent of Estelle Roberts, and the warmth of Helen Hughes. Long years on the platform have given Gordon a mastery of style that is intriguing to watch because of the way that seemingly unrelated items all fit perfectly when the right recipient is found. It is impressive to see his refusal to make anything fit. It has to be all or nothing.

Meditation and Lecture on Oneness with God (Sitting for Spirit)

September 1, 2019 by Martin Twycross Leave a Comment

This is a wonderful meditation and short lecture by Gordon Higginson all about Oneness with God and sitting for spirit. It was recorded at Stansted Hall and runs for 28 minutes. In it, Gordon gives us the wonderful spiritual key that to develop ourselves, we need to spend time sitting in the presence of spirit and achieve oneness with God.

In this powerful meditation, Gordon talks us through the 4 stages needed to achieve Oneness with God. These comprise entering the silence, moving to awareness, touching the presence and finally achieving oneness with God. It is up to the sitter to work through these stages in silent meditation. The silent meditation that follows lasts for 10 minutes. However, many sessions of meditation will be needed to achieve this.

The short lecture that follows on “Oneness with God” is one of the best I have heard. It should be required listening for all those interested in spiritual development. In it, Gordon explains that to become a better medium, we need to spiritualise ourselves and develop a relationship with God. By spending time sitting in the presence of God, we develop the spiritual aspect of self and unfold the spiritual qualities inherent within us.Continue Reading

Interview with Jean Bassett 1989

August 9, 2019 by Martin Twycross Leave a Comment

This is an interview that Gordon Higginson recorded with Jean Bassett in approximately 1989 at Stansted Hall. It runs for 1 hour and 4 minutes.

This interview formed the basis of the chapter on Gordon Higginson in Jean’s book “100 Years of National Spiritualism”. The book was published in 1990 and looks at the history and first 100 years of the Spiritualists National Union (SNU) of which Gordon was the President.

In the interview, Gordon discusses the fascinating story of how he became President and went on to save the Union and the Arthur Findlay College for future generations. He also talks about his early life, his wartime experiences, his work as a demonstrating medium plus the development of his physical mediumship.

This is one of the best interviews about Gordon himself and is of significant historical importance. It was recorded on a hand-held tape recorder so the quality is not that of a professional recording, and there is some handling noise. Nonetheless it is of good quality, and is well worth a listen as it gives us great insight into Gordon and the legacy he created.

Radio Interview From 1990

July 27, 2019 by Martin Twycross Leave a Comment

This is a radio interview that Gordon Higginson did on 19th January 1990 with Bill Heine for a local radio station. It is of very good quality, and it runs for 49 minutes.

In this powerful and wide-ranging interview, Gordon discusses what Spiritualism is and what Spiritualists believe. He talks about how mediumship works and the benefits it brings to those in this world and the spirit world. He then goes on to explain how Spiritualism can help us in our lives. He ends the interview by discussing his own physical mediumship.

This is another excellent interview with Gordon as he covers so much and the quality of the recording is very high. It is well worth a listen and it gives us greater insight into Spiritualism and mediumship.
