Psychic records

Series consists of the textual records Park kept about the spiritual and psychic experiences she encountered from ca. 1914 until the end of her life. Park originally kept handwritten notes of her psychic records; later she would revisit them and create a typewritten copy which she kept as the originals. Park’s psychic records were arranged into sections corresponding to whom the records pertained and those she received during her communion service. Within these divisions, the records are arranged chronologically, and were grouped by year by Park.

Park kept detailed notes of her psychic occurrences and categorized the records in terms of the kind of occurrence. These include: clairvoyance, clairaudience, precognition, “out-of-the-body” experiences, dream visions (occurring in early morning between dreaming and waking), soul sight, astral encounters, voices and “the silent voice”, conversation by “spirit-telephone,” times of being “in the psychic consciousness,” “dream consciousness,” “in dual consciousness,” or experiencing “fully conscious ESP.” Park also experienced manifestations at her sanctuary such as visions of individuals or “psychic colour with form,” instruction during sleep, and what she termed, “overshadowing,” or a being of the spirit realms that would speak through her. Less common are instances of natural resurrection and epiphanies, healing manifestations, telepathy and telekinesis. Park also experienced visions of her son, James Samuel Park (Jamey, in her records), who died in infancy. At times he appears grown as a child and interacting with other individuals in Park’s visions.

First in the series are the records related to the Master. This is what Park called Jesus Christ, also referring to him as Master Jesus and the Cosmic Christ, or the living Christ of her inner experience. Secondly, there are records related to vision of the Rector, her close friend, Rev. Charles Sydney McGaffin, with whom she communicated and developed a romantic and spiritual connection after his passing in 1940. Another division are records of Park’s Teacher, John of Patmos, the presumed author of the Book of Revelation, who was her primary guide and mediator of the “Christ wisdom”. A division related to communications related to the development of her Society of the Mystical Communion of Christ (SMCC) and another division related to messages received during her personal communion service.

Lastly, any other individuals that appeared in her visions, Park terms the “Spokesmen of the Heavenly Servers” (Servers). These Servers included: The Easterner, The Essene, The Ethiopian, The Greek Orthodox Priest, The Indian, The Man with the Mace, The Persian, The Professor, The Tall Priest, and The Unknown Spirit Lady, among others. Park had other Servers which were Canadian religious and spiritual figures: Canon Spencer Hayward Elliott (Victoria Cathedral, Victoria, B.C.), Rev. Harry Ralph Trumpour (St. Helen’s Church. Vancouver, B.C.), Rev. Andrew Roddan (Vancouver First United Church, Vancouver, B.C.), Most Reverend Dr. Adam Urias de Pencier (Third Bishop of New Westminster, B.C. and Second Archbishop and Metropolitan of British Columbia). Finally, some Servers were fictional, religious, and historical individuals including: John Quincy Adams, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the Egyptian god Osiris, Francis Bacon, Sir Oliver Lodge, Saint Ignatius of Loyola, Saint Paul (Saul of Tarsus), and Philo of Alexandria, and spiritualist writer Canon A. F. Webling.

Some psychic records were kept in Park’s filing cabinet, predominantly those from the late 1970s until her death. These were interfiled with personal and teaching material in her filing cabinet, such as the case with “Purpose – Mission,” “Rector – Letters,” and “Discernment, Special (Visions, Spiritual insights, messages from beyond, etc.).” Other “special messages” such as those on Easter and Maundy Thursday, and some from the Rector and Teacher were kept in the filing cabinet. Lastly, the series also contains the psychic records of Bernice Pell Crane, a “learner” of Park’s, who sent Park her notes of her psychic experiences.
