Perhaps it was
because Ursula Roberts had been struck down by a
disease in childhood, which left her with a
slight limp for the rest of her life, that she
realised the importance of being compassionate
towards her fellow beings.
In
adulthood, as a medium, she certainly
demonstrated her compassion to as many millions
of people as she could reach with her spiritual
message. Her books and teaching booklets have
been published in many countries and have been
translated into several languages; and she
herself worked in many parts of the world.
In them,
and with the help of her spirit guide and mentor,
Ramadahn, she gently emphasises the spiritual
qualities which will, she affirms, help us all to
lead a healthier and more peaceful existence.
Ursula's teachings encourage mankind to live in
harmony and concord: principles in which the
world is sadly lacking today. Her teachings
explore in a simple way the character and
behaviour of the human animal, and how human
beings can progress spiritually.
It is
thought that her spirit guide's name - Ramadahn -
is not meant to convey any religious connotation,
but that it is simply a pseudonym for this wise
teacher.
Some of
Ramadahn's trance-teachings were tape recorded
for posterity - and for those who wish to read
more about Ursula's life and spiritual teachings,
her autobiography is called Living
in Two Worlds.
In public
meetings, Ramadahn would entrance his medium and
then deliver philosophical discourses, after
which he would welcome any questions, nearly
always addressing each questioner as 'Beloved
One'.
Interestingly,
Ursula records that when she first began
developing her psychic and mediumistic abilities
she tried very hard to emulate the distinct style
and unmistakable delivery of the great spiritual
medium, Estelle
Roberts (no tie-of-relationship), but she
soon realised her mistake. In her enthusiasm she
hadn't realised that her spirit inspirers had
laid other plans for her - and at that time they
were trying to unfold her spiritual healing
powers!

Aided by the guidance of Ramadahn
and other spirit inspirers, Ursula Roberts has
left us a body of work filled with spiritual and
philosophical guidelines. For example: about the
provocative Doctrine of Karma (which teaches that
we have lived many lives and that we are now
trying to outwork our own salvation through the
actions we perform in this life) Ramadahn has
this to say: "You should remember at all times,
and in all things, that you yourselves - the
nation to which you belong, and the world which
surrounds you - are passing through this time of
travail and fear because it is the outcome of
that which has been sown and created in the past.
"The whole
of your world, and the beings who inhabit it, are
influenced by this Great Law which the Master
Creator has set into being, and which is
contained within the simple phrase the Laws
of Karma or the 'Laws of Sowing and
Reaping'.
"Anything
that you may do now - the things which you think,
and the deeds that you perform - you will reap
their results.
"Therefore,
each one should seek to sow with the seed of
love, to sow with the seed of goodness, and to
sow with the seed of kindliness, in the knowledge
that as you sow friendship so shall you reap
compassion.
"And as
you sow peace, so shall you also in the fullness
of time come to the reaping, which will be in
tranquillity and in joy."
