Below is information regarding C.E.R.T, the seven principles and also reading guidelines
C.E.R.T
For those developing their mediumship abilities it is a good idea to follow the guidelines of C.E.R.T.
This is a good way to stay focused and I and many other mediums were taught to use this. By using this
tool a medium can provide the four major requirements and information thus so giving a genuine communication from spirit.
Using C.E.R.T will help teach people that the true bond of love never dies and our loved ones personalities carry on after
that transition that we call death.
C – Communicator
This is the spirit that is communicating to the medium. It is quite often a relative or friend and
is known by the sitter. (sitter is the living person receiving the information via the medium)
The communicator is asked to give as mush information as possible. Like their name, age, height, colour
of skin, colour of eyes, their clothes style, how they passed, any information that only the sitter could verify.
E – Evidence
Once the identity of the spirit has been established, more information is necessary to prove that the
spirit is indeed aware of both past and recent events in the sitter’s life and circumstances. The spirit (communicator)
could provide some further information. This could include Hobbies, past memories, shared memories, mannerisms, illnesses,
recent events that have occurred in the sitter’s life. Events occurring around the sitter and their family members at
this time.
R – Reason
This covers why the spirit wishes to communicate, reasons given can be: To give comfort to the grieving,
give support, reassurance, to prove that they are aware of what has happened or happening. To prove that there is existence
after death.
T – Tie It Up
Tie up all the information given by the communicator. A mediums role is to provide evidence of the
survival of the human personality after the physical state we call death. It will also prove that the true bond of love never
dies.

The seven principles of spiritualism
Our Seven Principles are legally accepted and a lawfully recognised definition of the religious philosophy
of Spiritualism. A brief explanation of each one follows:
The Fatherhood of God
By the study of Nature - that is, by trying to understand the Laws of Cause & Effect which govern
all that is happening around us - we recognise that there is a creative force in the universe. This force, or energy, not
only created the whole universe, but also life itself in its many forms and is continuing to create today. The effects of
this eternal creation can be seen around us and this leads us to the evidence that 'God' - 'The Creative Force' - manifests
directly, or indirectly, in all things. We know this power as God and as we are part of the Life created by God, we acknowledge
God as our Father.
The Brotherhood of Man
Because we all come from the same universal life source we are, in effect, one large family, small
individual offshoot from the whole. This means that all mankind is part of a brotherhood. A brotherhood is a community for
mutual support and comfort. We are all members of the same divine family. We need to share our joys as well as our burdens;
we need to understand the needs of other individuals in order to assist them as part of our service to each other. As we learn
to give so must we also learn to receive thereby achieving the necessary balance for our life. We must look not only to the
material necessities of our fellow creatures but also to their spiritual needs and help those in need to become strong and
worthy of their relationship in the Family of God.
Communion of Spirits and the Ministry of Angels
All religions believe in life after death but only Spiritualism shows that it is true by demonstrating
that communication with departed spirits can and does take place. Spiritualist Churches provide one of the venues where communication,
through mediumship, is possible and many loved relatives and friends take advantage of this opportunity to continue to take
an interest in our welfare. There are also spirit people/teachers who are dedicated to the welfare and service of mankind.
Some (e.g. Silver Birch) bring inspiration and teachings whilst others work within the healing ministry.
Continuous Existence of the Human Soul
It is scientifically proven that matter (being part of the creative force, or energy) cannot be destroyed;
it merely changes its form. Spirit, as part of the Creative Force is, therefore, indestructible. On the death of the physical
body, the spirit continues as an integral part of a world, which interpenetrates our world but in a different dimension. This
world is referred to as the Spirit World. In spirit life we have a spirit body, which until we progress far enough, is a replica
of our earthly body. We are the same individuals in every way with the same personalities and characteristics and we change
only by progression, or otherwise, as a result of our own efforts. Our personal responsibilities do not stop at death.
Personal Responsibility
This principle is the one which places responsibility for wrongful thoughts and deeds where it belongs
- with the individual. It is the acceptance of responsibility for every aspect of our lives and the use to which we place
our lives depends entirely upon ourselves. It is not possible for any other person, or outside influence, to interfere with
our spiritual development, unless we are willing to allow this. No one can put right the wrongdoing except the offender. As
we are given freedom of choice (freewill) so also are we given the ability to recognise what is right from what is wrong.
We are totally, as well as personally, responsible.
Compensation and Retribution hereafter for all Good and Evil Deeds done on Earth
As with all the other Principles, the natural laws apply and this one echoes the law of Cause and Effect
(as you sow, so shall you reap). One cannot be cruel and vindictive towards others and expect love and popularity in return.
It must be understood that the compensatory or retributive effects of this law operate now -on earth - they do not wait until
we begin to live in the Spirit World.
Eternal Progress open to every Human Soul
In every heart there exists the desire for progress and to every human spirit belongs the power to
progress in wisdom and love.
All who desire to tread the path that leads to perfection are able to pursue it. The rate of progress
is directly proportional to the desire for mental and spiritual understanding. If we do our best in earth life to follow our
inward prompting or intuitions; we shall find progress very easy, on earth as in spirit; if not, every step in advancement
will follow a struggle against imperfections, which we ourselves will have worked into our natures. Within the Family of God,
with all the advantages that our realisation of that state can give us, we are all given the opportunity to be responsible
for our own eternal progress.
