FAQ Frequently Asked Questions ATransC Member Benefits & Services
Question: Why does the Association TransCommunication charge for membership?
Answer: Association TransCommunication was founded in 1982 with annual membership dues of $20. At that time, membership benefits consisted of a four-page quarterly newsletter. The Butlers did not increase fees when they assumed leadership of the Association in 2000. Since then they have added a website, Idea Exchange, an online document archive and the NewsJournal is now 20 or more pages. They have also made ATransC a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and have written a book as a tool for people to learn about EVP, which they gave in its entirety to the Association.
The original $20 dues just covered expenses for the newsletter. Now, donations and the increase in membership fees allows the Association to pay for the web services it uses, as well as all operating costs. The directors each routinely work 60+ hours a week directly on behalf of ATransC without pay.
No one receives pay for the hours worked in behalf of members and the greater community. Besides cost of printing, postage, office operations, Internet and communications, the ATransC is responsible for enabling research. member dues make that possible.
Question: What do you need to evaluate one of my pictures or recordings?
Answer: Unfortunately, the Association does not have the resources to review material from the public. You may want to consider joining ATransC. Membership will give you access to the discussion board, in which you can share your evidence and gain input from other members. There are a growing number of posts providing information about techniques, theories, and experiences in the Idea Exchange.
Question: What is the “Recording Circle - Bridge to the Afterlife”?
Answer:
More information on the Recording Circle (also referred to as the “Big Circle” in the context of both the physical and spiritual worlds) is available at the Big Circle website. The group recording sessions are continuing. A then-new member, Patti, sent an email to Karen Mossey asking for more information about the group. Included here is a summary of questions and answers, provided courtesy of Karen:
Question: Do I have to be a member of ATransC to participate in the Big Circle?
Answer: As you can see in the article about the Big Circle, It began as a spontaneous gathering of members and loved ones on the other side. In some instances, we feel certain that a loved one on the other side has guided their parent, sibling or spouse to the AA-EVP and to participation with the Big Circle as a way of making contact. It is true that the Idea Exchange is closed to the public as a way of protecting members, but we understand that the Big Circle itself is a universal idea that everyone should be able to participate in.
By deciding to make contact with a loved one, by learning to record for EVP and by recording with the group on the designated days and times, you effectively open yourself to the possibility of contact. Not everyone has made contact, and there are no guarantees that you will. But, everything you need to know is available on the techniques pages of this website at no charge, so you only risk time and effort in the beginning--assuming you have something inexpensive that will record voice.
You can also consider asking one of the Certified Practitioners to help if you do not have success for yourself. (We do encourage the Certified Practitioners to charge a small fee to offset the time and effort they expend in the behalf of clients.)
Remember too, that the best way to contact a loved one is through meditation and communion using your inner senses.
