Charles Richet, PhD received The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1913, in recognition of his work on anaphylaxis – Nobel Lecture. Another subject he did tremendous research on was Metapsychics. Read his book “Thirty Years of Psychical Research, being a Treatise on Metapsychics” to gain a better understanding of phenomena of the seance room, the meeting place between this world and the spirit world.
Thirty Years of Psychical Research
Being A Treatise on Metapsychics –
Excerpt from page 599 of his book.
Testimony is abundant and proofs innumerable. Decisive proofs are repeated daily. In this book, which is a collection of facts rather than an exposition of doctrine, I have intentionally multiplied instances at the risk of producing weariness and boredom. The authority of the witnesses and the mass of repeated proofs are such that doubt is not warranted. Cryptesthesia, Telekinesis, Ectoplasms, and Premonition seem to me founded on granite; that is to say, on hundreds of exact observations and hundreds of rigorous experiments. The thing is a certainty; and even though among these thousands of observations there may be defects, gaps, errors, and illusions, sometimes mistakes of testimony, occasionally trickeries, more often casual coincidence, still more often ill-considered assertions, still the thing is certain. It is not possible that all these observers should never have made mistakes, but the whole constitutes a sheaf of testimony so large and homogeneous, that no criticism of details, however acute, will be able to disintegrate and disperse.
Therefore:
1. There is in us a faculty of cognition that differs radically from the usual sensorial faculties (Cryptesthesia).
2. There are, even in full light, movements of objects without contact (Telekinesis).
3. Hands, bodies, and objects seem to take shape in their entirety from a cloud and take all the semblance of life (Ectoplasms).
4. There occur premonitions that can be explained neither by chance nor perspicacity, and are sometimes verified in minute detail.
Such are my firm and explicit conclusions. I cannot go beyond them.
To admit Telekinesis and Ectoplasms is not to destroy even the smallest fragment of science; it is but to admit new data, and that there are unknown energies. Then why be indignant, when, on the basis of thousands of observations and experiments, we affirm one of those unknown energies?
Everything that is not in formal contradiction with known facts is possible. Well, materializations and Telekinesis do not contradict one single established scientific fact. That a hand having all the attributes of a living hand should be formed from a whitish cloud in no way nullifies the laws of circulation, nutrition, and structure of a normal hand. It is new fact but not a contradictory one.
Medicine was my expertise and the background for my Psychical Research. So many years actively engaged in this universal investigation: where did we come from? why are we here on earth? and where are we heading after the physical flesh is gone? ‒ the ultimate question for every intelligent human being on earth. We are given a mind, a brain to evolve, to find answers, to find ourselves, the spirit that drives our physical bodies.
We are alive, we who once walked our steps on earth. Yes, even we who questioned the norms, the belief systems, the doctrines of religions, we who did not take part in anything other than scientific research.
Presented here on this website is my 30 years of psychical research, indeed an experience for you to build on, for you to explore through quantum physics. Consciousness is a vital part of quantum physics. There you are at the core of exploring the thin veil that separates us, the veil between the spirit world and the material world, the barrier that is there for you to conquer, for you to solve the mystery of. Prepare the ground for scientific research within quantum physics, and you will be guided from this side of life by scientists who have the same objective as yourself: to give the glorious message to the world that there is no death.

Mina Crandon was scrutinised to such a degree that she even nude gave evidence of Ectoplasm materialising spirit-hand from Solar Plexus.
