There are so many physical reasons to fear catastrophic events in "the future" (i.e. any time from now onwards) - that we need repeatedly to remind ourselves that fear is a sin.
For example; yesterday I heard that (officially) the mass immigration into the UK had reached record levels and expanded the population by more than one percent, more than 700, 000*. This is an increase in population about the size of Sheffield - which is a big and densely inhabited place. Nearly all of these people will be subsidized by many 10,000s of pounds each; also housed and educated and given health care etc. - all at the expense of the native population. A high proportion of the new arrivals are young men, and a significant proportion of these will be violent and criminal. And the real numbers are certain to be larger.
Yet this is just one of many, many ways in which the leadership class are actively, and increasingly with every year, destroying the UK. Meanwhile the masses are keen on this, or oblivious, or indifferent; because people have no purpose beyond short-termist hedonism and status wrangling.
If we are focused upon the physical, and on probabilities, there is every reason for extreme pessimism; and no plausible reason to expect any reversal or improvement in trends. Physical, material suffering, societal decline and collapse... such outcomes are near certainties.
Therefore, it is imperative that we repeatedly repent our fear; and continually remind ourselves of the spiritual context of human life, and of our own personal business here in this mortal existence.
We each need to clarify and make explicit our spiritual purpose, and seek the spiritual meaning of the actual conditions of our life.
If we are to roll-back the sin of fear; we cannot allow ourselves to be put into a defensive, besieged, mental posture.
Our attitude to life must come from our-selves (because there is nobody, no powerful group, no church out there that is even trying to do what is needed).
We need to see ourselves as a beacon of good-thinking; radiating-out true, beautiful and virtuous thoughts that will affect eternal life.
To defeat fear we need to take the initiative; our motivations need to emanate from our-selves - our motivations need to be from within-to-out: generative.
We need to choose, and to will - but what?
My increasing conviction is that we need to think less abstractly, and more personally; in terms of relationships rather than ideologies (or hypotheses, or models, or even theologies)...
We need to expand our relationships beyond the decadent and evil values of the physical, material world; and that means into the spiritual world.
We need, I think, to establish relationships with the resurrected dead. These need to have a role in the world, in and in our lives, going-forward.
What role? Well, that can only be known after there are such relationships.
The first step must be to establish contact. With whom? - well, that will depend on each individual and his needs, experiences, motivations; and with who (among the resurrected dead) is trying to contact us, from the spiritual world.
And how is such contact made: what form might it take? Not, I believe, in the forms of old-style 'mediums', and not in the form of 'channeling', nor of 'conversations'...
Instead; I think that contact with the resurrected dead will be direct: and via mind-to-mind sharing of primary (wordless, imageless) thoughts.
I have previously called this direct-knowing; because it is not mediated by language, symbol or any other intermediary.
In direct knowing, we know because we share in the knowing of another Being.
Direct knowing as as valid as the knowledge of the other Being, and our own capacity for understanding.
And direct knowing is self-validating, a positive and pleasurable experience; and expansion of the scope of thinking - because we are participating in a larger, spiritual and more-divine personal consciousness.
Here is a kind of plan, or the outline of a possible plan:
Strive for contact with the resurrected dead whom you love, greatly esteem; and/or who you feel want to contact you. Expect contact rather than communication. And be open to learn from these experiences - because that learning will be the basis for whatever plans you adopt.
Nobody can do this for you. It depends on your initiative, the Good-ness of your motivation, and your intuitive validation of whatever happens.
And your path and contribution will be unique.
(If you do not make this contribution, nobody else can or will - that is how important is the job.)
*Note: This demonstrates clearly that there has in reality been no Brexit at all with even the slightest significance (since Brexit was 99% motivated by stopping perpetual and accelerating mass immigration, and the consequent population/ cultural annihilation and replacement). All the vast political effort of getting an EU referendum in 2016, and its strong popular Leave vote - had either zero effect; or more plausibly served only to energize the totalitarian-globalist Establishment in pursuing their Sorathic agenda.

This is exactly my experience too. As you know, I was told that the old style methods of communication were atavistic and they are so because the person being communicated with remains passive. The aim is to bring us up to the spiritual level where communication takes place as you describe but this means we have to actively engage with higher levels of being. We have to go up instead of wait for contact to come down.
@William. "We have to go up instead of wait for contact to come down."
Yes. And then everything hinges on our motivations for going-up. If the motivations are not good, then the consequences will not be good.
That is one reason why I think it usually best if the specifics of such matters are Not discussed publicly (unless the motivations for That are also good!)
"Our attitude to life must come from our-selves (because there is nobody, no powerful group, no church out there that is even trying to do what is needed). We need to see ourselves as a beacon of good-thinking; radiating-out true, beautiful and virtuous thoughts that will affect eternal life."
Yes, this is vital, and your example of contact with the resurrected dead is just one example of good thinking that can lead to direct knowing.
I also encountered the immigration statistics you cite in the post. I find these sorts of things fill me with disgust rather than fear. Of course, that doesn't make it any better because it still places one in a defensive, beseiged mental posture, which is precisely what it is meant to do.
This then opens up the potential for reaction, which in my experience, also leads one further from away from being a beacon of good thinking. To be that beacon requires creative thinking -- thinking that is innovative, individual, and inspired. Thinking that does not just respond to stimulus, but focuses instead on generating from within.
@Frank - The simple fact is that our society and civilization richly deserves the suicidal fate it has chosen for itself: although the implementation is top-down, it's not that any significant numbers or proportion of people are seriously objecting to being culturally and physically annihilated. And if it wasn't mass immigration, if indeed that problem was solved completely and overnight; there are *plenty* of other lethal trends that will do the same job just as rapidly and completely - and with greater public approval.
Yes, true. Hence, the source of my disgust (my feeling of disapproval and aversion).

Thinking that works in spite of . Not because of .
