Film screening and discussion

Well, here we are, on a Page of Introduction.  I want to tell you some things….

Some years ago, I presented a screening of a film at the National Association of Holocaust Survivors. It was the film made by my dear husband Joseph (of blessed memory)  retelling his life story and journey on screen – four countries, four different lives. He was born in Vienna, Austria, and after moving from country to country in an effort to escape the Nazis, Joseph’s parents were killed in Auschwitz.  They were deported from Southern France, and Joseph escaped in a harrowing way.  He eventually was hidden on a farm in southern France, joining the French underground and then the French Army. Joseph was awarded the Croix de Guerre, then joined the IDF in Israel, where he lived for 10 years, and there we met.  Then Joseph and I cameto New York, and  a new life began. 

After the film screening, there were naturally some questions from the audience.  Some of these questions, surprisingly, focused on myself.  I had been expecting discussions about my husband, of course, not  about myself.  Anyway, I proceeded to respond…

 I had spent a long time in the scientific world, having run an international scientific organization,  in charge of the development and promulgation of standards, both nationally and internationally.  Along the way, I was able to get various degrees, B.A., M.A., and then a doctorate in Public Health in the Department of Environmental Sciences at Columbia University, in New York.  

 Alongside this scientific  world, however, I was also interested in spiritual and psychic phenomena, and began studying the practice of Tarot, Pendulum Dowsing,  Reiki, Séance Conducting, Energy Healing,  Mediumship, and Focusing.  I took certifications in many of these modalities, and started to give Tarot and Pendulum Dowsing Readings in various places…………both individually, and for Events.  

 I do not find any incongruity between these fields, the scientific, and spiritual.  I feel they complement each other.  I enjoy giving Readings, and continually learning…………….

 Most important, I believe, is the matter of integrity and ethics. As I studied,  Ifind that these basic tenets guide the work best.  So there are rules which I follow as a matter of course, and they are  (as I see it), common sense,  similar to the ones you would use in the medical field.  That is, you don’t disclose anything about the person you have been consulting with to anyone else.  You do not answer questions during the Reading which are related to another person unless there is permission for that (from the universe), and  you do not read for anyone under 18.  You do tell the person you are reading for that he or she is the arbiter of their own destiny………………
