Jack Corbett Teacher – Spiritual Healer & Teacher

International Spiritual Medium and Healer Jack Corbett, was born in Leicester, England on the 11th of November 1910. For over 20 years, Jack had his own spiritual centre ‘The Golden Circle Spiritual Centre’. At the age of 12, Jack was known and nationally acclaimed for his mediumship and would give ‘Special Demonstrations of Trance and Clairvoyance’. Jack Corbett was billed has ‘The Boy Wonder’.  In the old days, it was quite common place for gifted mediums to be proficient from quite an early age, indeed, many to the truly great mediums fit into this category

Jack was a genuine ‘Trance Medium’. From his youth he held major public demonstrations of mediumship, often speaking in and spoke in the native tongues of both countries.  Impressive, when one considers that Jack’s education, like so many in those distant days, was basic to say the least.  This seems incredible in this day and age, however it is a truth.  Sadly, the real trance mediums have become very few in numbers, and in many ways, through one reason or another, have become a thing of the past. Jack Corbett with a small group of other people was a true ‘spiritual master’ whose gift blossomed and grew throughout his life. Particularly knowledgeable about the philosophy of the spirit, Jack had a depth, not found in today’s mediumship. Simplicity, with an easy manner in which he could pass and relay complex information, all in a way that was not hard to grasp, or understand.

Jack served throughout World War Two in the British Army. He was involved in ‘special operations’ prior to the D Day landings in France.  He often spoke about the men he served with, particularly the hardened ones, who had gone through many battles, yet they would often ask for his knowledge of the next world. Too many men, he gave comfort, countless who were to lose their physical lives, Jack were able to give them a glimpse beyond the doorway of eternity, before they moved into out into the ‘world of peace and tranquillity’. Jack’s gifts were many, with his compassion for humanity; he helped and aided many people both during his time in the British Army and through his life in Spiritualism.

Whilst I was under the guidance of Jack Corbett, he would give me small amounts of information, persuading me to expand my own spiritual awareness. His mentoring and teachings gave me depth of knowledge, to push back my own boundaries of mediumship and spiritual awareness.

My knowledge of Jack’s family is very limited.  I know that he had brothers and sisters, a Son Colin a very gifted Magician, a Daughter-in-law, a Granddaughter and a great granddaughter Alexina.  In reality very little information, for someone I saw at least once a week for nine years.  All the same, the time I spent with Jack was set-a-side for one thing, and one thing only “Spiritual Development and Understanding”. Fridays were special evenings of opportunity, occasions for gaining further knowledge and learning.

Jack was an extremely hard taskmaster, for his part he was very single-mindedness, in teaching the discipline required for the special work of mediumship. Indeed, one of Jack’s simple teachings is: “Hard work and effort is the workbench of all knowledge and spiritual development”. I hope the insight into the life and legacy Jack Corbett gave will be of use to your own pathway of enlightenment, helping you to gain truth and spiritual insight.

Jack Corbett entered the Gates of Eternity of the 21st of July 1991 aged 81 – we had lost one of our truly greatest Spiritual Mediums and Healers.

With happy memories of a gifted man, friend, teacher and spiritual mentor
