Filed Under: What does EVP mean?
EVP stands for Electronic Voice Phenomena. While there are a few different interpretations of what is considered good EVP evidence, in general, disembodied voices being captured on a digital recording device of unknown origin, which can be deciphered by more than one unbiased person, is a point. starting point for a good piece. of evidence
Do all psychic mediums believe that EVP is real?
Most do, yes. BUT, like any other group of people… many outlets will disagree about the quality of a PARTICULAR piece of the electronic voice phenomenon. In other words, I’ve been in a room with 3 or 4 world-class psychics or mediums who have wildly differing opinions on a piece of evidence, from “WOW”… to “so what, sounds like fuzz!” , all in the same sentence.
However, the truth is that in general, if you believe in the idea of communication in the afterlife, the jump from THAT idea to the notion that spirits can communicate in a way that can be captured on a digital recording device. It’s NOT a huge leap of faith at all.
My own thoughts on EVP?
I heard some crisp, super spontaneous recordings that literally gave me goosebumps. I have listened to other recordings that some believe to be strange evidence of spirit communication that have NOT convinced me one iota. As a psychic and yet also a born skeptic, I have found that there are many illusions in the EVP world…and that what some WANT to hear, is often what they do…even if it sounds forced, confusing, or even false to others who do not have the same emotional energy invested in the outcome.
Keep in mind though…
I DO believe that some of the best EVPs represent some of the best evidence that spirits surround us in everyday life, and if you’re a serious spiritual seeker, it can be a fun, easy, and inexpensive way to prove all of this for yourself. , without having to believe anything by faith.
With that being said, I still think the BEST way to communicate with spirit is through more traditional means. Talking to psychics and mediums who maintain an open channel to the spirit world is probably the quickest way to get firsthand evidence that it exists. So is a dedicated meditative practice where you visualize loved ones you’ve lost…and want to reconnect with. (It may take a while to have your first genuine encounter, but with practice, you can start to have some truly life-changing experiences.)
The big reason why I prefer more direct methods of spiritual communication over EVP?
Simply because unless you have a group of like-minded people and a lot of time to listen to a bunch of empty space, EVP can actually be very BORING! (You have to record first, and then listen very, very carefully to many hours of tape to hear that first “hit”… and getting there eventually bores most people to tears.)
Talking to a medium or learning to communicate is often INSTANT, exciting and life changing!
