Questions 10 - 16
'Making Connections...'
10. JC: Is it true that you are really into
the paranormal?
SW: What do you mean by that?
JC: This person is asking about psychic experiences.
Telepathy, telekinesis etc have you ever experienced any of these things
yourself?
SW: Yes. I have. I had one extraordinary happening. These kind
of things… you may feel very disappointed when I say that you probably
have as well. We're all capable of it. How many times have you heard
the telephone ring and you know who's on the other end? To me that is
the beginning of something switching on and you can train those faculties…
Sometimes when I'm in the car I try to guess the details of other's
number plates as an exercise. Guessing is the first step towards building
that frequency.
One experience I had was twenty five years ago. I had heard about
the Template Foundation but it didn't really grab me at the time. About
three months later I had a dream. I didn't know any people in the dream…
there was a look in their eyes and a feeling of safety… when I woke
up I felt like I had been healed during the night. I thought if I could
have one thing in my life it would be like that dream. Having a few
people that I could feel that safe with. There would be no judgement,
just knowing where you are in life. I thought to myself that if I could
only have that feeling for real before I die I'd have achieved something.
I just knew that it was all connected with the Template Foundation.
That morning I got up and went to the man who had mentioned it to
me but he didn't work where he used to. I went up and down the road
where he lived. By lunch time I was looking in magazines but couldn't
find anything to do with the foundation. So I thought I'd take myself
off to Hampstead Heath for a walk. I wasn't interested in walking in
those days. I was far too interested in make up and how we looked; but
I went to the heath with this pink hat on and boots and it was a freezing
cold winters day. I decided not to come home until I had thought of
some way to contact the Template Foundation. I vowed to stay the night
if I had to, in those days it was much safer than it is today.
I was just about to sit down when a voice behind me said "Sammie'
is that you?" I turned around and there was Brian. I said "Did
you know I was going to be here I've been looking for you all day?"
And he said no. He then took me along and there was something there
at the meeting that I wanted. Something that I couldm't explain for
years and years.
Now I realise it has about it the same frequency that I had in
my dream. Firstly I find it extraordinary that something caused me to
have a dream like that. Before that time such feelings couldn't really
get in as my mind was closed. Secondly I just know I was being guided
towards it. It was just oozing out of me. The thing is that we
just don't know when we're switched on. Sometimes you think you are
and your not and sometimes you are and don't know it!
That is one example… I know there is a difference between being
telepathic and clairvoyant but I don't think I can explain what it is…
I think that I probably have four or five clairvoyant experiences a
week but I don't think that it is anything special. I think everyone
has them but doesn't realise it.
It's funny that it is named the paranormal but in fact it is normal!
Abnormality is the way that we live today.
11. JC: If you could pick just one of the
TP's powers--jaunting, telepathy, or telekinesis, or time travel--which
would you pick and why?
SW: Telepathy because I think that could be more useful to the
human race. I truly believe that millions of years ago when humans first
developed they were more see through… not as coarse and physical as
they are today. Just like our auras are. When they met one another they
couldn't talk, they didn't need to talk or to be so fleshy... They could
deal with each other just by looking and feeling. That kind of telepathy
can't have any deception.
12. JC: Do you think that there should have
been more female Tomorrow People?
SW: Yes. I do because the females could have shown the line of encouragement
and strength. Those kinds of qualities. Not the silly female or the
type that tries to be like a man but a true female.
13. JC: Have you read any fan fiction? If
so, what?
SW: No. I didn't know they existed.
JC: They often cross other shows with it.
Like the Brady Bunch, which was very funny, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Some stories go back to the 70's some move the characters on into modern
day settings.
SW: So they write all sorts of things. Some stories just about
Carol? Stories just for each other to read?
JC: Yes.
SW: It's all very inspirational. I'm not on the Internet. I don't
have a computer. I've been busy for years with my catering business
and my aroma therapy. This is why, now, I want to encompass more but
I just don't feel like I've got arms wide enough to do everything!
14. JC: What was your favourite story line?
SW: The first one is the one I remember mostly. I think that I
had the most to do in that. Like when I was saying to Kenny ' roll up
roll up see us all in a zoo!' Even with some of my personal experiences
I find it difficult to discuss them openly. People don't understand
and sometimes don't accept the truth. This was the same for the Tomorrow
People. They wouldn't be accepted so had to remain hidden
15. JC: Did you ever imagine that all these
years later people would still be interested in the show?
SW: No. Not for one second. If people had said that to me back
then I may have said yes why not. But in fact I wouldn't have believed
it at all… I just didn't think of it like that.
Do you think most of the fans believe in psychic experiences?
JC: On our discussion list a lot do. I'm
a member of the Society for Psychical Research and know that there is
a lot of proper scientific research that has proved the existence of
telepathy, remote viewing, Ganzfeld etc. But whenever someone comes
into the open and says to the mainstream academic community. 'Look it
does exist' then they wont accept it.
SW: In the template network we have scientists as well. There is
a great deal of evidence and belief going hand in hand.
16. JC: Have you heard about the new TP stories
on CD? What are your thoughts on the TP being dramatised after all this
time and if, you were asked, would you get take part in them?
SW: I think it would be absolutely outrageous and brilliant to take
part. Outrageous because it has been such a long time, but brilliant
because there is something in the Tomorrow People that had a permanent
truth in it and things with permanent truth can never die!
