Seeing Through the World: The Senses as Mirrors of the Inner Reality
Video length: 1 hours and 1 minute

Video length: 1 hours and 2 minutes
Through participant questions, Barry Long unravels the complexities of psychic experience, relationships, and dying, offering direct insight on the psychic distortion of messages from the angelic realm.
The Light and The Mirror
Video length: 54 minutes
Barry Long explains there is both the light and the mirror, with the light being our innate intelligence shining through the back of the mirror into the mind in inner space.

Barry reminds the listener that the best way to clean the inner mirror is to live a single truth you know to be true.
