Arthur Findlay

    Arthur Findlay war eine bedeutende Persönlichkeit in der Geschichte des Spiritismus, tätig als Buchhalter, Börsenmakler und Friedensrichter in Essex. Seine Schriften tauchten tief in das spirituelle Reich ein, erforschten die Natur des Lebens nach dem Tod und erleichterten eine Verbindung zwischen dem Physischen und dem Ätherischen. Basierend auf seinem umfangreichen Wissen und seinen persönlichen Erfahrungen zielten Findlay's Werke darauf ab, die komplexen Fragen der Existenz zu beleuchten und von der anhaltenden Kraft des menschlichen Geistes zu zeugen. Sein Vermächtnis liegt in seinem Engagement, die Mysterien aufzudecken, die unsere Realität umgeben.

In 1913 he was awarded the title of Member of The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire for his organisation work for the Red Cross. In 1918 Findlay attended a séance with the direct voice medium John Campbell Sloan at a spiritualist church in Glasgow. During the next five years Findlay attended many seances at the medium's home and became convinced spirit voices were speaking through Sloan.

In 1923 he took part in the Church of Scotland's enquiry into psychic phenomena. he became a founding member of Psychic News, a Spiritualist newspaper, along with Hannen Swaffer and Maurice Barbanell.
